Description of 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle |
The 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS was one of the baddest cars on the streets, and it's one of the most desired muscle cars today. So finding one with right look, A/C interior, and 454ci LS4 big block power is the quickest way to become the king of the neighborhood.When you have one of the best looking muscle car designs ever put to metal, only the best appearance will do. So when the time came for a restoration, they decided to go all-out and give this car a show-quality respray that would emulate one of Chevy's most potent machines. This car has had a lot of work done making it as straight as possible making into the mean machine you see today. The sought after Cortez Silver paint shines like a lightning bolt, and highlights the laser straight body. Black SS stripes on a cowl induction hood are a big part of the appeal of the Super Sport model, as well as the blacked-out SS grille and all the correct badging. Super nice chrome bumpers and polished stainless fender trim make for excellent factory-correct packaging, and the addition of the large 17-inch torque thrust-style wheels lets you know there's even more aggression behind this shine.Just like the exterior, the interior was given the right muscle car makeover. The original bench seat was replaced with a comfortable bucket setup that includes a center console in between. Intermediate size in 1970 was still a serious amount of interior space, so there's plenty of room to carry your family and friends with you. Plus, with an upgraded AM/FM/cassette stereo and cold R134a air conditioning, everyone stays happy. But the best treats of this Chevelle are reserved just for the driver. You get all your favorite SS icons, including the horseshoe shifter and the full round gauge package that includes a tach and working clock.This is the kind of motor that will make you proud to lift the hood at car shows. The big block 454 cubic-inch V8 is exceptionally well presented with its orange block paint, Chevrolet performance valve covers, and the bright air grabber that has Chevy's Heartbeat of America motto boldly on top. And if you look closer, you can spot performance upgrades such as a Holley four-barrel carburetor w/electric choke, Edelbrock Performer intake, and Accel Super Coil HEI distributor. The V8 has also been rebuilt for reliability, so it fires up easily and really lets its big block power known through the header fed dual exhaust. The total power package reliably gets to the ground via a stout TH350 three-speed automatic transmission and 12-bolt rear end. Control stays well in hand thanks to power steering, front disc brakes, and BF Goodrich gForce tires at all four corners.The cherry on top of this total package is that the original warranty card and owner's manual will show you that this car was sold new in Concord, NC. So nearly a half-century later, and this classic is back home and better than ever. Don't let this opportunity slip away. Call today!! |
