1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Description

Back in the day, the Chevrolet Chevelle Super Sport emerged as one of the true vanguards of the muscle car movement. With its stylish looks and rock-solid performance, this beautiful 1970 Chevelle SS 454 is a prime example of why GM's premier midsize sport coupe has remained a steadfast favorite among automotive enthusiasts for generations.This is one of those cars that you just can't walk past without taking a second look. Though not the original factory color scheme, the eye-catching metallic blue finish on this classic lends itself quite well to the handsome lines of the Chevelle. Top it off with factory-style white stripes, and you have an automobile that doesn't only look great, it looks right! Aftermarket hood pins and 17-inch wheels with SS center caps further accentuate the beauty of one of Detroit's finest offerings. A little minor rust in the floorboards and a few small flaws in the paint are the only issues that leave this ride just a couple of steps away from cosmetic perfection. She's definitely a head-turner at first glance and every one thereafter. Once you slide beneath the steering wheel, you'll quickly notice that a significant investment has been made in both the comfort and appearance of the interior. No apologies needed whatsoever. Soft white upholstery perfectly complements the aforementioned exterior stripes. The bucket seats are so comfortable that you may want to just sit in the car for a few minutes after you reach your destination. And a glance toward the floor reveals carpet that looks brand new. Other amenities to the cabin include a custom wooden tilt steering wheel, Hurst shifter and full instrumentation. A throwback to the days when performance sometimes took precedence over convenience, this timeless cruiser was built without factory air. So the feeling of wind against your face while hustling down the highway only adds to the total driving experience. Put the windows down, crank up the volume on the ipod compatible AM/FM radio and let the good times roll!Of course, a true collector car can't be adequately judged on looks alone. The running gear found in this Chevelle SS boasts the credentials to impress even the most discriminating car buff. The engine compartment displays just enough chrome to make it appealing to the eye without appearing overdone. Of course, nothing speaks with more authority than the throaty growl of a big block Chevrolet. And rest assured, the 454 cubic inch power plant sitting beneath the hood of this machine has plenty to say. A Pro Form four-barrel carburetor and Weiand Stealth aluminum intake enhance the throttle response of a legendary engine revered for its stock horsepower and torque. A motor like that is at its best when backed up by a four-speed transmission like the one found in this gem. And really, does anything compare to the spine-tingling electricity you feel when shifting up through the gearbox? Of course not! Rounding out the power train, the near-bulletproof Chevrolet 12-bolt rear end offers the durability needed where the rubber meets the road. This is a car you will be proud to own. You could say this car is a solid balance between daily driver and potential showpiece. It's your choice, and one you'll enjoy making. So climb in, fire it up, hit the gas and feel your imagination run wild.
