Description : Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is proud to offer this 1971 Chevrolet Corvette. The 1971 cars were virtually identical in appearance to the previous model inside and out. This was the final year for the fiber optics light monitoring system, and the headlight washer system (if a vehicle was so ordered). For the first time, air conditioning was installed on most Corvettes, with nearly 53 percent so ordered. This beauty is powered by a 350 CID V8 with 270 hp and 360 lb-ft torque, and its GM TH400 3-speed automatic transmission gets every bit of that to the rear end. As friend used to say, "this is a car that takes you back to a simpler time"; back when there was little more to do on a Saturday afternoon than to jump behind the wheel of your automobile and cruise the strip waiting for a destination to present itself. Open the door and slip into the driver's seat of this "Little Red Corvette" and you'll get that nostalgic feeling that a vintage Corvette provides. Pop off the T-tops on a warm fall night, and head for the winding roads of the back country with nothing but the stars above you! Power steering and power brakes only add to your comfort and pleasure. This '71 Corvette is equipped with the following options: Air Conditioning (blows, but not cold), AM/FM radio, Radial Tires, Rallye Wheels, Seat belts, T-tops, and Vinyl Interior.

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing. No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.
When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.
Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.
To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.
With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
