This 1970 Chevelle SS was sold new at Terry Chevrolet of Grundy,
Virginia July 18th 1970 and is powered by an LS5 454ci V8 linked
with a TH400 automatic transmission and a 12-bolt rear axle. The
car has been refinished in the original color scheme, Astro Blue
with black stripes (25B) over black vinyl upholstery (756).
Equipment includes air conditioning, power steering, power front
disc brakes, a cowl induction hood, a black grille and tail panel,
and Super Sport wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich Radial T/A white
letter tires measuring 215/70 up front and 225/70 out back. This
Chevelle SS also has the original owners manual, Protect-O-Plate,
and full size spare!
The front bucket seats and rear bench are trimmed in black vinyl
and accompanied by a color-coordinated dashboard, headliner,
headrests, door panels, center console, rubber floor mats, and seat
belts for all occupants. The three-spoke steering wheel frames a
120-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, an analog clock, and
gauges for amperage, coolant temperature, and fuel level. An
aftermarket oil pressure gauge is located beneath the
dashboard.
The underside of this car boasts a clean, rust free, and coated
frame. The floor pan is finished in red-oxide primer like a Texas
built car would have been. (The Arlington, TX assembly plant was
known for dipping the car in red-oxide primer)
