This 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS is a golden slice of American muscle heritage, now available from its fourth proud owner. With only 79,000 original miles and a lifetime of careful stewardship, this classic blends authenticity with tasteful upgrades. Under the hood sits the iconic 396 cubic inch V8, a numbers-matching engine paired with its original transmission—still running strong and never prone to overheating.
Originally finished in Tuxedo Black with bold white racing stripes, the car received a high-quality repaint during a frame-on restoration in February of 2000, led by its second owner, who had proudly held the vehicle since 1973. The restoration also included a full rebuild of the original SS front and rear suspension, ensuring tight handling and factory-correct ride quality. Today, the paint still gleams with incredible depth and character, highlighting the crisp body lines and unmistakable profile.
The factory-installed 12-bolt posi rear end with 3:31 gears and bucket seat interior reinforce its muscle car pedigree, while the factory air conditioning system has been thoughtfully updated with a modern 134A Frigidaire compressor. Yes, it blows ice cold—just like it did in 1970.
For comfort on long drives, a Gear Vendors Under/Overdrive unit was installed, making highway cruising effortless. Front disc brakes provide confident stopping power, rounding out its drivability. Inside, the current owner upgraded the sound system with a modernized vintage-style radio and aftermarket speakers, and still has the original kick panels in his possession for purists who appreciate factory originality.
This Chevelle SS isn’t just a car—it’s a meticulously cared-for time capsule with a healthy motor, exceptional paint, rebuilt suspension, and just enough modern refinement to make it an absolute joy to drive and own.
All serious offers will be considered and thank you for viewing and appreciating this exceptional piece of automotive history.
