Vehicle Description
STK 2870 1969 Chevelle SS
The 2nd generation Chevelle SS396 has become one of the most
popular muscle cars ever built. The current owner of this Chevelle
has had it for the last 25 years and states that it is a true
SS396. A '69 Chevelle can be a somewhat difficult car to positively
identify as a factory SS396 due to the fact that the SS396 was
simply an option code (RPO Z25) on the Malibu model, not identified
in the VIN sequence as a '138 code' as were previous models. That
said, the engine in this Chevelle is stamped with the matching VIN
number including the 'JA' code (unique to the '69 SS396 Chevelle).
Every other SS element of this car also appears to be 100%
authentic. A full restoration has been performed on this beautiful
SS396 and the attention to detail is precise. The body was
professionally resprayed in original Dusk Blue (code 51) with a new
contrasting black vinyl top and the chrome and stainless pieces are
excellent. All SS396 badging is correct, as are the 14" Chevelle
Rally II wheels w/caps that mount BFGoodrich T/A radials. A custom
car cover is also included in the sale. The interior was
reupholstered in black vinyl with bucket seats, console, Muncie
shifter and the correct SS396 'pod' gauge package. A factory AM
radio resides in the dash. The matching numbers 396ci/325hp 'Rat'
was totally rebuilt and a mild cam and Edelbrock aluminum intake
were added. A Rochester Quadrajet provides carburation and exhaust
is routed through tube-headers to a free-flowing system. The
transmission is a close-ratio M-21 Muncie and a 12-bolt
positraction differential is fitted with factory street gearing
(probably 3.31:1 or similar with the 4-speed). Power-assisted
disc/drum brakes control stopping. Our Chevelle SS396 is a stunning
example of this classic muscle car and will greatly improve the
value of your garage. ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS IS".
