Vehicle Description
This 1970 Chevelle is an undocumented LS6 and is equipped with a
454ci V8 engine. The 4-bolt main-bearing caps, a solid-lifter
camshaft, larger-diameter exhaust valves and a Holley 4-barrel
carburetor propelled the Chevelle from 0-to-60 mph in just over 5
seconds and through the quarter-mile in the 13-second range. The
powertrain starts with a 454ci V8 engine mated to a Muncie 4-speed
manual transmission and ends on the road through a posi-traction
rear axle. The white-striped cowl-induction hood, with its
signature chrome hood tie-down pins, is where form meets function
on this Tuxedo Black Chevelle. The Z15 option brought a
black-painted grille with center SS logo, wheel opening moldings
and a black SS rear bumper insert. An F41 suspension package backs
up the look of performance with heavy-duty coil springs, front and
rear anti-sway bars, box-welded rear lower control arms, power
front disc brakes and power steering. Dual exhaust with special
bright polished tips makes for '70s-correct big-block sound and the
car rides on 5-spoke SS wheels with Firestone wide oval tires. The
white interior is centered by a pair of Strato bucket seats. In
front of the optional 3-spoke sport steering wheel is the round
gauge pod dashboard with black-faced tachometer, speedometer and
clock. Smaller gauges for fuel, amperage and water temperature are
joined by a radio-delete dash surface. The center console features
a Hurst shifter for full-power launches from the Muncie
transmission. From the Raser Collection.
