1970 Chevelles are blue-chip muscle investmentsand#44; but theyre also a blast to drive. This slick Fathom Blue SS is a real-deal LS5 thats documented and hasnt been dressed up to be something its not. Factory A/Cand#44; a stylish black interiorand#44; and those classic stripes make it a sure bet that it wont last long on the showroom floor. There are a lot of awesome choices for color on a 1970 Chevelleand#44; but few look as cool and sophisticated as this hardtop. Finish quality is decent all aroundand#44; with the dark blue paint emphasizing the crease that runs along its flanks and despite the bright SS stripesand#44; it has a low-key look. Stilland#44; theres no denying that a 1970 Chevelle SS454 has big-time presenceand#44; and when you rumble up in this carand#44; people are definitely going to notice. The cowl-induction hood is a big tip off that theres serious power underneath and Chevrolet seemed to understand that the SS badges didnt need to be big to have an impact. The paint remains in good condition with light signs of use and ageand#44; but that only means that its perfect for heading out on a Friday night and having some fun without worries. Bright chrome bumpers might very well be originaland#44; and with that in mind theyre in good shapeand#44; along with the rest of the trim that looks great against the blue paint. You know this is an authentic car when you see bench seats inside. Sureand#44; everyone seems to prefer bucketsand#44; but I think I would prefer a car where it is as it was built rather than some guys vision of what it should be. In factand#44; the seat covers and other soft parts are in great shapeand#44; making this a good choice for your next road tripand#44; because its easy to stretch out and get comfortable inside. A real SS instrument panel features a factory tach and auxiliary gauges and the original steering wheel remains in good condition. Thanks to the LS5s more street-friendly natureand#44; factory A/C and power steering are part of this cars options listand#44; along with an AM/8-track stereo radio thats a rather unusual find. Open the trunk and youll find what appears to be the original mat and perhaps even the original spare tireand#44; which is a vintage bias-ply! The 454 under the hood is a proper warranty-replacement block that was installed in-periodand#44; making it the next-best-thing to matching-numbers. Its wearing bright Chevy Orange paint and a correct coil induction air cleanerand#44; as well as the chrome valve covers that were part of the big block package. It was detailed when it was restoredand#44; but it has been driven a bit since thenand#44; so its no longer as crisp as it was when it was first finished. On the other handand#44; that makes it a car you can enjoy without a second thought and the allure of the LS5s massive torque is pretty hard to resist. Backed by a quick-shifting TH400 3-speed and a bulletproof 12-bolt rearand#44; its easy to see why this car was a favorite driver in the past. A new Flowmaster exhaust system is the only notable deviation from stockand#44; and it give the big block a healthy sound that youll definitely enjoy. The tidy underside doesnt appear to have ever been restored yet still looks quite cleanand#44; and correct SS wheels have been fitted with recent BFG radials. Documented with a factory build sheetand#44; this is a real big block SS thats ready to enjoy. With desirable options and a great color combinationand#44; it sure wont take long to add this one to the SOLD column. Call today! |
