Omg dude you just said it sounded like a Ferrari. That made me hurt a little inside. That sounds like America to me :)

Best looking Camaro bodystyle!

"Sounds like a Ferrari..." Correction it sounds way better than any Ferrari!

Nice car. If I had it I’d get rid of the Z28 stripes and rims. Plus someone put 70 tailpipes on it which are too long and hang too low. I know cause I own a 70 4 speed 70 Z28. Also the chrome shift knob is correct if it was a 70 4 speed with console car but incorrect for a 71. Back in ‘75 I owned a 71 Z28 4 speed.

that chrome strip on the door where it meets the quarter panel looks like a piece form autozone jaja my respects for the original factory but i would rather own a non-stock modern second gen camaro with todays technology. basically a pro touring second gen camaro. you got to keep up with the modern muscle cars such as hellcats, mustangs and new camaros and even european supercars while keeping the vintage metal. now that is priceless!

Very nice car! Ditch the tail pipes and the Z28 stripes....no SS badge on RS option on the grill... side emblem only. You've got a few mistakes to correct if you want a 100 points car.... but again a very very nice car

That sounds like pure AMERICAN muscle to me, That's one of the finest '71 Camaro's I've ever seen. Chevy Power! Awesome!

Stunning car, I have never seen a more desirable 2nd generation Camaro.

RPO F41 package should have a flat black rear panel. And whats up with the Hurst badging?

Never compare American made with others in the world. Auto's started here and nothing compares. Would love to know the original price tag with all those options. True beauty.

There's one of those up here in Alaska, black with black top, RS SS 396, 4spd... a friend of mine owned it and sold it to a guy who is in the process of doing a resto... next time I see it running around town I'll post some pix

Big block and four speed,my favorite flavor! I'm building this cars stripped brother,No options to speak of but it has the ones it needs,a new 396/ 375 horse with Hooker headers and a rebuilt 4 speed! Factory red with black interior. Found it in a back yard here in Texas. Hadn't been driven since 1986, 67,000 miles.

This is the only Camaro I'd ever want to own.

this is a unicorn in chevy camaro world what a car 4 speed glorious V8 a man can not wish more than that

Nice! I believe the stripes only came with the Z28 package. Beautiful car

Beautiful! I have a 71 Z28 Love the 2nd gen!

I had a 70 1/2 with a 402 TH400 and 4:56's, chirp the tires hitting second all the time. Loved the setup around town after a shift kit reprogram. From 70 up the 396 was bored .030 over to 402 but still called a 396. That's what this one should be.

Ya don't say it sounds like a European car. Hurts my feelings

I love Your Videos... You always bring the high end highly optioned vehicles on... I can't afford to own any of them, but the video's are interesting and I learn a lot about the different vehicles You offer.. Thanks for showing them...

Magnificent car! I have a '73 RS , and I love to see a real split bumper. The numbers matching doesn't spike my attention near as much as just seeing an RS -rather than an RS "Clone" with sawed bumpers and wrong front marker lights on a video that says "Real split bumper Camaro!!" ugh , I hate them :) . Excellent car my friend , enjoy it!

Glad to see the 70 1/2 to 73's getting attention. I had a 71 SS 350 4 speed 3.55 posi. Aztec Bronz on Black. Great car. They dropped the compression that year so the 350 in the SS was rated at 270 hp. I believe the 402 BB was rated at 300 hp.

Hyper-rare to see a Second Gen. Camaro with a vinyl roof!!!

It would look a lot better with hidden pipes.

He heard his boyfriend say it sounded like a Ferrari , he’s just repeating

This is really the cats ass of 2nd gen Camaros! But not only 3rple black, do you realize its a 3 option car! Its not only an SS , but with the big block and heavyly optioned vinyl top it has the rs optioned grille too. I have owned a 73 and half rs-ss-Z-28 4 speed fact. ac pw pdl fully optioned cam and thought had it all till seeing your beautiful CAMARO! That top is just too much! I cannot understand why u would want to sell such a treasure. I would consider it priceless. Thanx for showing such a piece of American automobile history,

this is a beautiful car, However there is a lot wrong with it. RS cars did not get SS emblems in the grill. also no Z28 paint stripes. no Hurst emblems on the spoiler, the fangs on the rear bumper are wrong, the SS emblems on the fenders are incorrect. they should be black and not white. the steering wheel is incorrect, the SS would have had a 2 spoke wheel with the SS emblem in the center. the 4 spoke wheel was optional, but not SS in the center cap. the engine bay is a disaster. wrong color paint in the engine, the engine is missing the TCS equipment, missing the fuel filter and the fuel plumbing is all wrong. I have no idea whey they would rout the spark plug wire like that, but that's wrong, the fan shroud is wrong. its also missing the rear sway bar. if it was not for the stamps on the engine block and the air cleaner I would have thought it was a clone. I also have a 71 SS 396 4 Speed car and I hate seeing people pass of an incorrectly restored car as an "unaltered engine bay". and then he has to compare it to a Ferrari? WTF? it sound like a Big Block Chevy! and while the car sounds good, the LS3 396 used in 71 and 72 was the weakest 396/402 big block Chevy made. it was rated at net 270 HP in 1972 and 300 gross HP in 71. the L34 was rated at 350HP gross in 1970, but the real monster was the L78 which was rated at 375 gross HP in 1970. their is a would of difference between the sound of an LS3 and an L78. the LS3 is subdued and tame circus lion, the L78 sound like a pack of 50 lions about to devour a gazelle when you crack the throttle. I am not bagging on this car, its a very nice car, it just needs a lot of work to be put back to a true restoration.

Beautiful! :)

My grandpa keeps this car in his garage ive never seen it i just knew the year but now i want to see it

Rally sport options have the split bumbers, i believe all came with the standard with the bumpers that run across the front

beautiful

Always loved that body style, beautiful example of an 4sp SS car.

thank you for not doing a break stand :)

NICE!!!

Great car!

That is a beautiful car

Actually John DeLorean went to Ferrari for help with the 2nd generation redesign for the Firebird. GM brass would not approve it unless it was used for the Camaro as well, so Ferrari actually deserves credit for some of the design of the 2nd generation!

Sweet👍

Nice car to have, I didn't know those 396's wer so underpowered back then, wow. Beauty non the less!

WHO PUT THE CHEAP PLASTIC HURST EQUIPPED EMBLEM ON THE TRUNK? CHEESY!

very nice

I had this same car in 1983 in Greenville, SC. Same color combo

This is a BEAUTIFUL masterpiece... I can only wish for a car thats a fraction as cool as this one xD I'm gonna get a 2010 SS/RS but i would trade that for this car ANYDAY! x)

WOW!

SUPER SWEET SS!

nice car

Nice

It is my favourite car

Excellent automobile!!!! 2022

Sweet Camaro!!😁👍🔧🛠️

Pretty nice car, desirable options, cool that it has the original drivetrain. Imagine the performance and sound improvement of a Pypes or Flowmaster exhaust!

just got yourself an 18 yr old subscriber

Beautiful is it still around❤

good video...

tres tres belle superbes caisses ces camaro ma préférée la 68!

Oh my

Nice car but the SS didnt come with the z28 stripes or wheels

love the camaro in 1980 i bought a brand new 1980 z28!

Crashed my 70 1/2 RS SS split bumper when I was 16 and did not know what I had.. Dream Car well the 70 is but its damn close..I will have one!!!!! Beautiful Car..

This guy never heard a Ferrari before.

@ekpd181 a camaro ss in 1971 could be ordered with the special z28 wheel package and z28 stripes for an extra cost, but yes they were standard on the z28

Was it the RS models that had 2 sets of lights in the front?

I've got one of these... except mine's rusting in front of my barn with the engine in my basement and the doors round the back of my house.

I am a mustang guy, but that is a nice camaro

Beautiful! I had a '71 RS years ago.. It had the 350.. even so... Very powerful! Thanks for posting! :D

We have this car at home

I never heard an effing Ferrari sound like that.

CLA on the Block means 72 engine !

Don't think the SS emblem on the front grille is accurate for the RS optioned car. Only the standard SS cars got that.

Vinyl roof ruins this car

never buying a car already built.. everyone should build to suite themselves...

Wait a minute here, this is a '71 Camaro SS/RS 396????? First of all, the 396 Chevy big-block was discontinued after the beginning of the 1970 production year and replaced with a short-lived 402 (396 bored out ), big-block. Chevy had the 307, 350, 400(small-block), and the big-bock 454/365h.p. in 1971...that's what I remember....not aware of a 396 SS/RS Camaro in 1971??

My dad likes the 68 better but I like the 71. My favorite car ever

Been a Chevy guy for 30 years and that's the first I've ever seen the Hurst Logo on the spoiler of a second gen. Camaro. TELL ME MORE! Explain please...thnx!

I thought z27 on the tag denotes an SS. AND LS3 denotes a 402 (396) big block. 🤔

Can anyone imagine if there had been a "Camaro SS 454 LS6"?

hey, love the Camaro. my dad had one that was a 1999 camaro with a brans new cam, transmission. it probally would've went to me but he passed away on April 24, 2010. It had about 750 horsepower i'm looking for a first car that's a Camaro for about 3 grand im 13 so i dont need it foe a few years but i just need a heads up!! please respond.

those stripes are Z28 only

Needs to sound like north america muscle, period.

Since this car is so rare why go through all the effort to make this car original, then add Z28 stripes, Z28 wheels, SS emblem on grill, and SS emblem on steering wheel that were not original to the car. The paint on the tail panel should also not be glossy and be black indicating a big block SS.

Is it for sale?

1971 Camaro RS SS big block, 4 speed manual, all optioned out. Does it get any rarer?

you ever heard a ferrari? im going to say no....

and..... YES i am willing to work!!!!!!!!!!!!

71 RS/SS did not have a grille emblem.

Strips where Z-28 coded .... as far as the 396 it should have been mentioned in 70 the 396 was bored .030 over making it a 402 !

I have an RS SS 71 402 big block, is that rare as well? It's an automatic, not 4 speed

how much ???

To the driver; are you from the Tennessee-area? You sound a lot like character-actor Leslie Jordan from the show 'Reba'.

has to be the cleanest 2nd gen ive ever seen the triple black is solid and a big block too, 2nd gen camaros are my fave muscle car esp if u put a big block in one let alone factory baddest ass camaro right here. when people "do re-search" and under-stand emission restrictions are the only reason their "high comp small displacement" engines are exactly as they were...lmao. Why do you think they jumped on overhead cams so quick and forced induction....lmao. "sophisticated my ass" only designed to work if u never use it kinda shit. At least ferrari has only "recently" been making their flagship cars forced induction but hats off to porsche for finding work arounds with their own constraints. Still the only reason v8s sound so good is bc aesthetically esp big blocks were talkin pure unhindered performance esp the 7L range. Solid NA intake and fuel air capability with huge headers and open exhausts or straight headers lmao. Nothing beats it its why ford won back 2 back lemans. If only gm had the reason or capital to make a l88 engine powered mid engine car, or most likely used the lt1 out of size constraints...which didnt even exist when ford was using the 7.0 in the gt 40. and eventually swapped to a smaller engine...still the 7.0 shelby proved a thing or two about how an engine could be drivin and a car in general power where it was in the gears and what gears etc. The euros had to cling to quad cam v8s, 10s, 12s. to remotely match a powerband of a big displacement v8 or even v10 for the vipers matter.

Whomever ordered that Camaro new must've been filthy-rich. You could get a new Cadillac in '71 for that kind of coin!

i live in kokomo indiana and im only 13 remember would they still take that ???

My sister Gloria own one in astrol blue with white top 4spd hers was ss 396 350 hp i drove the car when i was 13 teen flash back im restoring 70 Z28 rs m22 4 speed with 410 12 bolt deluxe blk interior also april build date mulsanne blue thinking building 70 baldwin motion camaro un decided still i really like this black camaro I also had all # match 70 Z28 rs th400 auto full documents hugger orange I really miss that car.

Not with White stripes. It gotta be all black coat.

What a car... Amazing.

Don't see too many with the vinyl top

I like this camaro better than the 69'

NOT a 396...it's a 402...which is what ALL 396s were in late '69 thru '72. Chevy retained the '396' moniker for posterity sake, as it "sold" cars w/those cubic inches since '65.

m21 or m22 rockcrusher 4 speed?

the ss emblem shouldn't be on the front of the grill with the rs package

Nice car. It's no Ferrari, It's not even a Pontiac.
