Elvis' 1971 Stutz Blackhawk | Production Model
Elvis purchased his second Stutz Blackhawk, this time a production model on September 8, 1971. This car was delivered to Elvis on September 9, 1971 at his 144 Monavale Street, Beverly Hills home. The 1971 models were all two seaters with a small jump seat in the back that folded down to accept matching luggage.
This 1971 model used a two piece split windshield. In 1972 Stutz switched to a factory GM windshield.
The original radio for the 1971 Blackhawk was a Lear Jet AM/FM 8-track, this was the best in car audio money could buy at the time.

Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD
Never before have we seen an Elvis Presley concert from the 1950's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered unreleased film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever. + Plus Bonus DVD Audio.
This is an excellent release no fan should be without it.
The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.
