For Sale: 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle in Rogers, Minnesota

This 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Convertible is absolutely loaded with pro touring style upgrades that are sure to make it a fantastic summer cruiser! When it comes to muscle cars, and the Muscle Car Era, the 1970 model was the peak. Peak performance. Peak style. Peak Muscle Car! And, the 1970 Chevelle is one of a few muscle cars that exemplify just how great 1970 was for muscle cars. In 1970, the Chevelle got a whole new look. Overall, the '70 Chevelle's look was bolder than any Chevelle up until this point. Up front, dual headlights were incorporated into the front fenders, straddling a new-look split grille that sat above a redesigned front chrome slotless bumper with integrated parking lights. The side silhouette of the 1970 Chevelle was flatter with respect to the front fenders, leading to a more imposing looking muscle car as did a modified roofline from the previous year. The rear-end treatment was also considerably updated in 1970, moving away from a more tapered look into a squarer, bolder look from the back of the car. 1970 also marked the pinnacle of Chevrolet performance, highlighted by the Super Sport (SS) package available for the Chevelle as well as the availability of bigger engines with more carburetors that created incredible horsepower and torque. The SS package was evident from nearly every angle of a Chevelle SS, complete with special stripes and badging, as well as a blacked-out grille among other items. In total, a mere 7,511 Chevelle convertibles were produced in 1970 which makes this particular Chevy quite a rare find. Under the functional cowl induction hood is a F.A.S.T EZ-EFI Fuel Injected 454 cubic inch V8 that starts up and runs great! The fuel injected big block is backed by a Tremec 5 speed manual transmission that makes this classic muscle car a total blast to drive! Exhaust exits the 454 big block via an upgraded set of performance headers and out through the rear SS-tipped tailpipes via a massive X-pipe stainless steel exhaust setup that produces an aggressive, throaty sound. In addition to the F.A.S.T. Fuel Injection setup, upgraded Tremec 5 Speed, and beefed up exhaust, this SS-styled Chevelle Convertible is absolutely loaded with performance and suspension upgrades! The F.A.S.T. fuel injection throttle body is mounted atop an Edelbrock Preformer RPM aluminum intake manifold, helping the engine breathe more effectively. The MSD ignition setup is also a welcome addition to any vintage muscle car since it greatly improves reliability over the standard original-type points and condenser setups. Engine cooling has also been vastly improved thanks to the addition of an Aluminum radiator that helps dissipate engine heat much more efficiently. An upgraded rear sway bar paired with upper and lower tubular A-Arms provide for a better ride coupled with improved handling. Power is directed from the 454 V8 and Tremec manual transmission to a 12 Bolt positraction rear differential that is sure to help you keep the rubber to the pavement while driving. Additionally, several creature comforts make this Chevelle a truly pleasureful car to take down the road. Power front disc brakes are a welcome addition to this Chevy Chevelle, especially with all that extra horsepower and torque. With power steering, squeezing in and out of a tight parking space a the local car show or ice cream parlor is a total breeze and the overall driving experience is much better as well. The black vinyl power convertible top is in great shape too, and it goes up and down with the simple flick of a switch. Additionally, when the top is in the lowered position, it tucks neatly below a brand new black vinyl boot. Riding on a set of raised letter Goodyear Eagle tires mounted on Magnum 500 wheels, this '70 Chevelle Convertible has a fantastic look and even better ride. The exterior of this Chevelle Convertible has been refinished in beautiful Cranberry Red paint that is accented with black SS stripes, that together complete the exterior look of this wonderful muscle car. The interior of this 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Convertible is absolutely stunning! The front bucket seats and the rear seat have been restored with new black upholstery. The matching black door panels, black carpeting, center console, and sport-style steering wheel are all in wonderful condition as well and retain a great stock appearance. In addition, the steering wheel is mounted on a tilt steering column which makes getting in and out of this Chevelle much easier. This Chevelle Convertible also sports upgraded digital instrumentation comprised of a 160 MPH speedometer and 8,000 RPM tachometer, both with digital displays, along with a volt gauge, fuel gauge with digital clock, temperature gauge, and oil pressure gauge. The black padded dash is finished off with various controls, a locking glovebox, and retro-style AM/FM radio. Whether you're buying your very first classic muscle car or you're looking to add a wonderful driver to your existing classic car collection, this 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Convertible would make an excellent choice.
