My New 71 Chevelle
 

I just picked this up on Sunday. Got the tags and everything yesterday, so I thought I'd post a couple quick pics and video.

It's a 71 Chevrolet Chevelle with a 350 built to Edelbrock 350 RPM Performer specifications.

Nice! Congrats man! Looks like a fun ride.

Thanks, a little different than what I'm used too, but I've always like muscle cars.

That is so cool, Justin. I can't wait to see it this Saturday. Hopefully the weather is good!

Thanks Charles, hopefully the weather will be nice.

Mean ... lay some rubber my man...

Those tires wont last long ;)

Car looks clean. Any replacement panels? Modifications planned?

The car is in great condition for it's age. There are a couple little marks in the paint here and there, but overall I cant complain. I went through all the paper work that came with it. It has about 10 years worth of paperwork for everything that has been done to it, and I didnt see anything that would suggest any panels have been replaced.

No mods planned just yet, gonna enjoy it for a while and then maybe do a few things to it. I'd like to swap the wheels at some point with a Cragar style wheel, and convert the blue cloth interior to a black vinyl setup.

Congrats man!!! Saturday is supposed to have great weather, so I expect to see it. Have Pure Photo take a video of the burnout!

LOL, ok

Shhwweeett!! great choice, that color combo always looks great on GM muscle :thumbup:

Yeah, big fan of the blue and white. Can't wait to check it out! Thanks to Ara I'm a little better stocked on rolling video, so it will definitely feature prominently in our upcoming blockbuster! :lol:

Thanks guys. Can't wait for the video.

We really need to arrange driving on Saturday, because I wanna get some rolling shots of that baby glistening in the sun! :lol:

Hopefully we can get some footage cause I won't be at C&C the following weekend, and I don't to hold up production.

Hi,

AWESOME! Cool purchase mate! Very jealous.

Cheers,
Nik

love it bud, congrats!!!

Awesome!

I want pics of the burnt rubber. Now.

Looks so clean. Congrats and enjoy!

Took it out tonight for a little bit. It's crazy how much attention this thing gets. This one dude was asking me all about it on Route 7 at the lights, and then a brunette in a Mustang smiled at me in Ashburn Village...lol

Congrats! That thing is a gorgeous....when the mods begin(and they will hehe), may I suggest heading to the nearest junkyard/LKQ and picking up a Cheap LQ9 engine...slap some stock LS3/L92 heads on it with your cam of choice and Let it Eat! Hehe

I'm a Mopar man, but I've always kind of liked Chevelles for some reason.

Looks good :)

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind, going to enjoy it as is for a while, but I mod all my cars, so I'm sure this will be no deference.

Thanks, it was this or 360 Dart, this was in better shape.

Sweet! Congrats! In for the video. :D Have fun with it!

My old mustang would always get more attention than the supra or 911 I used to have. It is going to happen everywhere you go.

Maybe I can help with that. And the wheels, too!

Damon, I'm definately in the market for new wheels, hoping to go with something like this:

Let me know if you guys can help.

Just saw your link, there's actually a couple I really like. Gonna wait a couple weeks, but I'll give you a call when I'm ready to order.

Wow... don't know how I missed this thread. Beautiful! Got any vids or sound clips? Few things are better than a big, loping V8 at idle... the sounds and the smells :D

Enjoy in the best of health!

Hi Krenshaw,

C'mon mate, there's a video in the first post.

Cheers,
Nik

Obviously I need to quit drinking... or start. :wall:

Anyway, congrats!

Lol

Awesome, congrats!

sweet ride, makes me want to work on my 67 mustang! Driving an old muscle car around is awesome. lets see the blue cloth interior. sounds cool

Thanks for all the comments everyone.

I'll try and get a few shots of the inside tomorrow.

Yes we will!
