Vehicle Description
They say it's not easy being green, but when people see this
highly-documented 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle with great paint, a nice
A/C interior, and fresh big block power under the hood - well then,
they'll just be green with envy.
Green Mist is a great minty hue that represents this coupe's era
perfectly. Of course, it helps that the factory-correct color has
been given a full professional respray. That means you get the
pride of originality, and the bright luster that can only come from
modern paint practices. Bodywork is excellent all around, so the
light rolls off this one evenly no matter if it's enjoying the
sunlight or reflecting the Saturday night neon. There has been a
lot of attention paid to the details. That's why the iconic SS
stripes come together with the blacked-out grille, dark rear panel,
and the taut vinyl roof to give this car a great secondary dark
color. Heck, we bet you might even give this cool classic a "mint
chocolate" nickname. And the form-fitting bumpers give this candy
its shiny wrapper. But before we have too much fun with these
sugar-filled references, you know no one will mistake this for a
bubble gum classic. That's because the cowl induction hood, SS
badging, and polished 16-inch REV wheels are all big hints that
this is a true performance machine.
Most muscle cars have been switched over to an all-black interior
over the years, so this highly original dark green interior feels
like a precious gem. The carpets, door panels, headliner, and seats
have all been looked over in this one, and the result is a great
place to spend some time. You can hop in and grab the three-spoke
steering wheel with your left hand, and your right one is instantly
attracted to the iconic horseshoe shifter in the center console.
The factory gauges are supplemented by auxiliary readouts and a
large pillar-mounted tach. There's provisions for a modern AM/FM/CD
stereo with iPod input. Plus, the air conditioning is blowing cold
with modern R134a. After all, you want to remain cool while showing
off the cool hardtop profile, right?
The reason why we love the Chevelle is because it has a true muscle
car vibe is just begging for a big block. Sometimes it will just
make your whole day seeing this much American muscle filling an
engine bay, especially this one. It's a recent professional build
with only about 1,000 miles on it since completion. That's why you
have a ton of fresh and shining components. But more than just look
great, this 396 cubic-inch big block was built for serious power.
It has been bored and stroked for extra displacement. Plus, there
are TRW pistons, Comp Cams hydraulic roller camshaft lifters,
Edelbrock Performer intake, four-barrel carburetor, and a set of
headers that feed the thunderous H-pipe dual exhaust. Getting all
this power to the ground is easy thanks to the stout 12-bolt rear
end with Positraction that was rebuilt around the same time as the
motor. Add in a stout TH400 three-speed automatic transmission,
power steering, power brakes, and the modern grip of BF Goodrich
gForce tires, and you have a powerful classic that's easy to show
off everywhere.
There's a document file that comes with the sale, including the
original window sticker, bill of sale, dealer invoice, factory
build sheet, warranty card, owner's manual, build receipts, and
maintenance records. This is a standout for its colors, features,
and performance, so you know this one is right for you. Call
