This 1970 Chevelle SS 396 is a gorgeous, well-optioned Real Deal SS, numbers matching '70 Chevelle documented with a build sheet. Few American muscle cars for sale today command the instant recognition, emotional response, and collector reverence of the 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396. Bold, aggressive, and powered by one of the most celebrated engines in American automotive history, the 1970 Chevelle SS 396 represents the absolute pinnacle of the muscle car era - a vehicle whose combination of stunning good looks, thunderous performance, and iconic SS heritage has made it one of the most searched and sought-after classic muscle cars on the market today. The 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle was part of the third-generation body style introduced that same year - one of the most dramatic and consequential redesigns in Chevelle history. Wider, lower, and more aggressively styled than the generation it replaced, the 1970 Chevelle wore its new sheetmetal with a muscular confidence that perfectly matched the performance it delivered. The bold front fascia, sculpted hood, and wide-body stance combined to create one of the most visually arresting designs of the entire muscle car era - a silhouette that is instantly recognizable to enthusiasts and casual observers alike, and has lost none of its visual impact in the more than five decades since it first appeared. Within the 1970 Chevelle lineup, the SS - Super Sport - package represented the pinnacle of performance and desirability. The SS 396 designation identified a Chevelle equipped with the potent 396 cubic inch big-block V8 - one of the most celebrated and beloved performance engines in GM history. Smooth yet thunderous, responsive yet tractable, the 396 big-block delivered the kind of effortless, ground-shaking torque that made the Chevelle SS a genuine force on both the street and the drag strip. For the serious muscle car collector, a genuine SS 396 Chevelle carries an authenticity and provenance that no clone or tribute car can replicate. The 1970 model year holds special significance in Chevelle SS history. It was the first year of the dramatic new third-generation body - making every 1970 SS 396 a first-year example of one of the most celebrated designs in American automotive history. It was also a transitional year that captured the muscle car era at its creative and commercial peak, before tightening emissions regulations and rising insurance costs began to dial back the performance excesses that had defined the preceding decade. A 1970 Chevelle SS 396 is therefore a genuine artifact of the muscle car era at its absolute finest hour. The cultural footprint of the 1970 Chevelle SS is enormous. These cars earned a place in the collective memory of an entire generation of Americans, celebrated in music, film, and popular culture as the definitive expression of 1970s American performance. Today that powerful nostalgia, combined with the SS 396's authentic big-block credentials, iconic third-generation styling, and genuine historical significance, has driven classic Chevelle SS 396 values to levels that reflect the car's true and enduring importance in American automotive history. Under the functional cowl induction hood is a Numbers Matching L34 "Turbo-Jet" 396 cubic inch V8 engine that breathes through a single 4 barrel carburetor, together rated to produce 350 horsepower when new from the factory. The numbers matching 396 V8 does sport several performance updates including an upgraded aluminum Edelbrock intake as well as upgraded aluminum Edelbrock heads. Likewise, exhaust exits the Chevy Big Block L34 engine via a set of headers out through a dual exhaust system producing a terrific throaty rumble from the correct exhaust tips. The 396 V8 is mated to a Numbers Matching TH400 Automatic Transmission that makes this '70 Chevelle SS an easy muscle car for anybody to drive and enjoy. This 1970 Super Sport is absolutely loaded with options! Power steering is a wonderful option on this classic Chevy because it makes squeezing into a tight parking spot at the local car show an easy maneuver and the overall driving experience is much improved too. With power front disc brakes, bringing this '70 Chevelle SS to a complete stop is also much easier and more reliable. Riding on a set of brand new Firestone Wide Oval Radial Tires by Coker mounted on special SS Rally Wheels, this '70 Chevelle has a fantastic look and even better ride. The exterior of this 1970 SS396 Chevelle has been correctly refinished in Classic White and the added Red SS stripe package give off even more flair, together completing the exterior look of this wonderful muscle car. The interior of this 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 is absolutely stunning! The front bucket seats and rear bench seat have been completely reupholstered in Red, a perfect complement to the exterior look of the car. A center console houses the horseshoe shifter and is mounted between the recently reupholstered bucket seats. The remaining interior pieces are equally stunning, complete with matching Red upholstered door panels, matching Red padded dash, a sport 3-spoke steering wheel, red carpeting, and brand new red floor mats with "SS 396" embroidery. In front of the driver is a full instrumentation setup including a 120 MPH speedometer, 7,000 RPM tachometer, amp gauge, temperature gauge, and fuel gauge.
