1971 Chevrolet Chevelle Ss True 4 Spd Convertible Barnfind Build Sheet Included! on 2040-cars
West Chicago, Illinois, United States
1971 Chevy Chevelle SS 402 4 Speed Convertible Barn Find wit hbuild sheet included. Own a piece of documented history...... this makes the value sky rocket! This is a 1971 Chevelle SS Convertible that was recently procured from it's original owner. The car retains it's original coat of Nevada silver paint that GM applied back in 1971. The original owner purchased the car in 1971 from a dealer in Elgin, IL. He used the car up until 1980 or so and the car has been off the road since then. The car seen a few trips to the drag strip in the mid 80's, but sat for a long time. The interior is completely original and will need plenty of work. The SS dash is in great shape. The car has a power top, the original M-20 4 speed. The engine is unfortunately not the original. It is a 1971 454 that only has about 3,000 miles on it. It was last run about 3 years ago and is free, but I have not started it. The frame is completely solid front to rear. The car is truly a very solid piece. The quarters, obviously original to the car are really nice. Inner/outer wheelhouses are issue free. Trunk is rock solid. Floors are super nice, the driver and passenger front pans each have golf ball sized holes at the toe board front seams, but do NOT need replacement. The doors are super nice. The only real rust issue with the car is the dog leg portion of the front fenders. They have some rust. Obviously, the top is shot. The top frame is very nice and it is power. The car has disk brakes, power steering, power top. The original posi rear end. The rims and tires are not original to the car. The trans shifts in and out of every gear fine...the clutch engages. The brakes...well those are going to need to be gone through. I have no POP, have the original title. The car is as honest as they come. It's a REAL SS 4 speed posi convertible that when you get done with will have all original metal. I urge a local inspection. This car is a investment, not a expense. call chevelle joe 312.622.7533 |

2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf
Tue, 23 Apr 2013The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.
Next-gen GM SUVs caught wearing new boxy bodies [w/video]
Wed, 15 May 2013We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."
Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty
Tue, 05 Mar 2013We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.
