The 2 Chevelle's you see here are the first couple of "production" Chevelle's from Ironworks Speed & Kustom and they are truly wonderful. Built to look really good but mostly built for the simple joy of driving a well built muscle car. Speedtech Performance chassis, supercharged LT4 power, choice of 6 speed manual or 10 speed automatic and everything you want and nothing that you don't so sit back and enjoy the ride...

Love the Chevelles. Good to see a 1971. Seems like 99.99% of Chevelle builds are always 1970’s which I do love but the 1971 has a killer look and this one has a Sleeper look. Both Chevelles are stunning but great look to the 1971. As always great episode and great cars. Thank you

@huntingtonbeachsasquatch 10 месяцев назад

I had a 68 Malibu, I know, not the speed demon or the collector car but Hay, I traveled all over Baja, nice big car to sleep in and the 307 got great gas mileage and can get parts anyplace. We could fit 4 friends in the trunk and 2 cases of beer for the drive in movies.

Aside from the cost , which I totally understand given the work involved , this is how these older classics need to be built . Trends come & go but leaving a car as close to the way it came from the factory with modern safety comfort & performance upgrades is something that never goes out of style.

At 17 I had a 72 Sleeper similar to the 71 in the video. White with a light blue vinyl top, and light blue bench seat interior, column shift. Steel wheels with the rears custom made 1 inch larger diameter and 2 in wider. Basic full wheel hubcaps. Built 396. Turbo 400 trans. Total sleeper. Shocked the hell out of almost everyone that revved at a stop light. Only problem was even with the custom rear wheels, I got no grip at full throttle.
