1971 Chevrolet Chevelle - CHP Rides

’Velle State of Mind

’71 Chevelle
Clermont, FL
Denise Porcaro

Not letting a complete car restoration scare her, Denise Porcaro dove head first and finished the build herself. The 454ci big-block is outfitted with an Edelbrock 750-cfm carburetor, matching intake manifold and headers, with Thrush mufflers. The transmission was rebuilt with a shift kit and Porcaro added a set of 3.73:1 gears out back. The brakes and suspension are stock, but a set of Weld wheels were added for a more aggressive look.
