This 1971 Chevrolet Corvette LS5 454 is a street-legal race machine born to dominate. Mille Miglia Red paint coats the iconic C3 body, a name that pays homage to high-speed Italian road races. The aggressive stance is amplified by muscular rally wheels and BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires (215/70R15), connecting this powerhouse to the asphalt. Chrome dual exhaust tips peek out from the rear, hinting at the thunderous roar within. The T-top configuration adds an extra layer of performance appeal, allowing drivers to feel the rush of wind as they accelerate. Bold 454 badging on the hood warns would-be challengers - this is no ordinary Corvette.
Inside the cockpit, black vinyl bucket seats hold you firmly in place during high-G maneuvers. The driver-focused layout puts every control within reach, featuring a floor-mounted shifter and center console. Factory gauges and center stack instrumentation provide clear Corvette performance metrics readouts. Wood trim accents add a touch of class to the otherwise all-business interior. Power steering ensures precise control whether you're carving corners or navigating through traffic. The AM/FM radio stands ready to provide your victory soundtrack, though most drivers prefer the primal growl from under the hood.
The numbers-matching 454 cubic inch V8 engine pairs with a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission. This powertrain combination offers substantial torque and rapid acceleration. The engine bay features a Quadrajet 4-barrel carburetor and stock manifolds. A dual exhaust system with Flowmaster mufflers produces a deep, aggressive tone-an aluminum radiator aids in temperature management. The vehicle is equipped with power steering for improved maneuverability. Four-wheel disc brakes provide reliable stopping power. The suspension system includes stock-style components with new parts in the front end and OE Spectrum rear shocks. This Corvette starts promptly, runs smoothly, and shifts through the gears without issue.
