Vehicle Description
1969 Chevrolet Chevelle 300 2 Door Coupe
In 1969, half a million Chevelles were produced in varying body
styles and trim levels. Half a million, narrowing down the options,
just 13,858 2 door coupes of the 300 variant were produced that
year, split between those fitted with a six cylinder and eight
cylinder engine. The 300 was touted in the sale brochure as "for a
car with miserly ways about operating costs, the 300 Deluxe gets
downright grand standish in looks and comfort.".
For consignment, a 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle 300 2 door coupe with
2,576 miles since its build. What build, you may ask? How about a
LSX V8 with a consignor stated 850 horsepower with 10 pounds of
boost from the supercharger. If the orange paint doesn't get your
attention, those figures sure will!
Exterior
You guessed it, that's Hugger Orange brightening up this Chevelle
that was admittedly born with a silver coat. The first thing that
grabs you after the paint is the lean mean stance, hunkered down on
15-inch Billet Specialties Street Lite wheels with widely staggered
tires with a recent date code of early 2023. Black backed LED
headlights also get this bad boy noticed and a cowl hood only hints
at what might be going on underneath, also hinted by the Procharger
front license plate. A black accent plate on the latch panel out
back spans the space between the tail lights on the end which
smartly contour the body lines and provide a muscular rear profile
over the chrome bumper while tinted windows dress things up above.
A bubble or two and a single scratch are the only exterior
imperfections.
Interior
Standard and clean black door panels include dual cranks for the
two windows including the vent and provide the gateway to a race
interior, starting with a six point roll cage and leather ProCar
racing seats with 5 point harness. The back seats are still in
place as the roll cage braces travel through the package tray and
the crossbar carries a fire extinguisher. Up front, a four spoke
steering wheel fronts a digital dash for the Holley EFI system
while analog gauges are reserved for the A-pillar including fuel
pressure and boost. Vent levers top an AM/FM/CD player in the
center stack and it has AUX and USB ports with speakers mounted
just below. The Holley Terminator screen is just below that. A
ShiftWorks horseshoe shifter takes the center console and improves
on a great design with the hardware to back it. Black carpet below,
a nice headliner above, and a trunk that cleanly houses the battery
box and fuel cell.
Drivetrain
Okay motorheads, here's what it's all about. Of course it's clean,
but what is it? How about a 408ci LSX V8 with a Scat stroker crank,
Wiseco 9.0-1 pistons, and an intercooled Procharger D1SC
supercharger over AFR 225 heads. Fuel is delivered through a Holley
Terminator X-Max EFI system and power is delivered via a rebuilt
4L80E 4-speed automatic with a 4,000 rpm stall converter and lock
up. The 12 bolt with posi in back has 3.73 gears, c-clip
eliminators, and Strange 31 spline axles. Power brakes are here in
the form of front discs and rear drums. And of course, Hooker
headers begin the exhaust process in the bay.
Undercarriage
Clean and uniformly black, there are also some racing items
underneath including a driveshaft loop and an LPW Ultimate 12 rear
differential cover. The dual exhaust goes through FlowMaster
mufflers before terminating behind body panels, stealthily out of
sight. Suspension consists of coil springs in front and a 4 link
with coil springs in back.
Drive-Ability
Although we're a stone's throw from Maple Grove Raceway, our policy
dictates that this vehicle does not leave our premises. Darn,
because we'd love to see what 850 horsepower can do on the track,
but we'll leave that up to you. For now, we roll this beast around
our short test loop to find almost everything in good working order
and of course, enormous power underfoot expressed in a very healthy
exhaust note bouncing off the hills of Morgantown. We note the
reverse lights are not working but all other functions operate as
they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these
functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot
guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your
purchase.
Your build just arrived. Yes, we know you have big plans for that
old car sitting next to the shed, and your wish list likely has a
lot of ingredients already baked into this monstrous cake. Life is
short, save yourself some time and pick up this incredible build so
the fun can start tomorrow, not years from now. It's time to wake
up the neighborhood, and your passion for fast cars.
