Vehicle Description
This car runs strong, looks good, and drives great. A ground
pounding 454 that is always ready to rock. The smooth body lines
catch the light, and draw your eye. Built with features like
Wilwood 4-wheel disc brakes, this car is meant to be driven.
Matching number cars come with a big price tag. This car comes with
big grins when you drive it.
Considered by many to be the best-looking muscle car of all time, a
'70 Chevelle is as popular now as ever. They have a look that will
never go out of style with smooth curves that flow down the length
of the car. This car is a classic shade of red, with chrome
bumpers, a black SS grill and 4 headlights. The cowl induction hood
is held down by hood pins so the engine doesn't try to jump out,
and makes for an intimidating view from any angle. There are bold
SS stripes, which are always a good look on a muscle car, and with
245/40/ZR17s up front, and 275/40/17s in the rear, it has a wicked
stance that says it means business. The chrome back bumper has a
blacked out rub strip with an SS emblem on it, in case the person
you just blew by was wondering what that was.
Stepping into the interior of this car is like stepping back in
time. It is black on black, with a black headliner, and stock
except for the three aftermarket gauges that are commonly added in
order to keep accurate tabs on the critical functions of water
temp, oil pressure, and the charging system. A three spoke aluminum
and black steering wheel feels good in your hands, and behind that
wheel is a super clean dash panel, topped by a black dash pad, that
reminds you of simpler days. SS emblems on the door panels
discreetly announce that you are not driving your average Chevy,
and a sleek console with a horseshoe shifter is another hint that
you might want to buckle up. This is a mid-sized muscle car, not a
Pony car. That means that there is ample room for people in the
back seat and a big trunk with plenty of room to bring whatever you
might want with you.
But let's talk about what makes this car so sweet. The engine. This
particular car has a big block 454ci engine that has been warmed
over a bit to make even more power than stock, with trick flow
heads and long tube headers. The engine compartment is super neat
and clean with a chrome air cleaner and master cylinder, billet
pulleys, and black valve covers with brushed fins that look just
right. A 3 speed TH 400 trans gets all that power headed back to a
12-bolt rear end which tries to put it all on the ground. There are
also some nice touches to this car like Wilwood 4-wheel disc
brakes, an MSD ignition, and an aluminum radiator with electric
fans to keep things cool.
This car is a blast to drive! It also has correct SS boxed rear
trailing arms, SS dash, larger front/rear sway bars, and the
correct SS steering box which all point to this being a real SS
car. You could take it to cruise nights, or take off on a trip with
it. Or, you could take it to the strip and cut that ground pounding
454 loose.
