New 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS

Known as The Hornet" there is nothing mellow about this professionally
completed frame off fully restored rust free and heavily documented excellent
example of one of the all time favorite classic muscle cars manufactured at the
Leeds Plant in Kansas City, Missouri at the pinnacle of the muscle car era
during the fourth week of August 1970.  The professionally completed frame off
restoration took over 7 years to complete with 474.50 documented man hours plus
100s more hours of labor from subcontractors and shops in the United States
and Canada.  New old stock parts were
used whenever possible which were sourced from over 65 vendors.  Countless man hours were invested in
acquisition of parts and locating shops and mechanics to restore multiple components
on the car.  Over $55,000.00 was spent
restoring this SS not including acquisition cost of the vehicle.
