1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 Restoration Project 

The car looks great, but it's a mixture of 1970 and 1971 Chevelles. The combination of a 1970 front end with a 1971 rear bumper (1970's taillights are rectangular) turned up good, though. I'd just try to stick to one year only and, of course, go for an original steering wheel (or a nice reproduction) and a set of Chevelle mags. Despite the wrong front end for a 1971 (or wrong rear end for a 1970), the car looks great and nicely restored.

i love this chevelle ss it is gorgeous it is so cool I'm in love with this car good on you

I wonder how many months would take a man alone to do this work of art, just the craftmanship to know where everything goes and put it togheter is insane to me... For those panels with the outer edges eaten by rust, did you like cut away the rusty part and took sheets of steel, bend them to follow the original shape and then weld them to the good parts? Or are they just scrapped and completely remade with laminated steel? And does the frame lose strenght when patched?

Great work! How much did all that cost?

All that work and the underbody was not re-stone guard sprayed

Proper

Looks like a '70 to me.

70 front

? 71 rear and 70 front

I AGREE WITH THE POST BELOW. John Farr 4 months ago (edited) Front end=1970, rear end 1971. Confused. Too many cheap blingy add-ons

Beautiful car. Absolute GARBAGE color. I'm so disappointed
