1970 Chevrolet Chevelle ss
This tribute LS-6 1970 Chevelle SS 454 has it all
Notes from The Owner
This tribute LS-6 1970 Chevelle SS 454 has it all; classic lines, fantastic paint, menacing stance, rumbling 454cid big block, full SS dash, and a complete Vintage Air setup. There’s a lot to like here. When we took it on trade it did have only 75 miles after resto. I do have 375 miles now.
Cars starts runs drives stops and restarts like a dream!! Sound great with those long tube Hooker headers with those 3″ Flow Masters! This car started life as 72 Malibu with a 350 auto. It has since been restored and modified with a 1970 front clip and SS rear bumper.
This was a nearly rust-free car with the exception of the drivers floor section which was professionally replaced. The car was repainted in Cranberry Metallic with new Tuxedo Black vinyl, brightwork, 17″ polished Americans. Car has cowl hood with SS badging & hood pins. This Chevelle now sports a 454ci engine that was built for the street. It has plenty of power and a great sound, but also has civilized road manners with a stable operating temperature and solid vacuum at idle. Highlights include an Edelbrock intake, HEI electronic distributor, and Holley electric fuel pump. The transmission is a TH400 automatic which feeds a 12-bolt rear end 3.25 ratio, great street/cruising gear with these tall rear tires.
There is also power steering and power front disc brakes to make driving a breeze for anyone. The interior has been redone with new carpeting, door panels, seat covers, and an SS dash. Everything works properly including the oil light, ammeter and clock. The horn, wipers, neutral safety switch, and backup lights are functional as well, as is the parking brake. The dash lights and dome light are good too. There is also a modern Retrosound stereo with auxiliary input.
And not to be missed is the Vintage Air HVAC setup; it’s always nice to have air conditioning on those hot summer nights, not to mention a functional heater and defroster. I don’t know if there’s anything that screams “muscle car” more than a Chevelle SS 454. And while this car has all the looks and sound for the part, it is also a fun and comfortable car to drive, complete and ready to go when you are. Remember to buy your hotrod form a dealer!!

The Chevelle SS’s aggressive styling, characterized by its distinctive dual headlights, bold SS badging, and muscular stance, embodies the essence of American muscle.
