It was the birth of what would be years of sticker and tape job RPO's in lieu of actual performance one's.

Interesting . . . I'm no Chevy guy, but I always thought it was Chevy's little submission for a Road Runner competitor. Granted, the '69 was like that somewhat because you could order the SS option on lesser Chevelles. And 1971 seems like a late moment to have an RR competitor. But Pontiac had their GT-37, and Chevy had their Heavy Chevy.
