1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 396 L78 375 HP, M21 4-Speed, Frame-Off Restoration

Few American muscle cars have the presence, reputation, and timeless appeal of a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS. This stunning example has undergone a beautiful, no-expense-spared frame-off restoration and is finished in one of the most iconic color combinations ever offered on Chevrolet's legendary muscle car.

Finished in correct Code 75B Cranberry Red with a Black Vinyl Top and Black Racing Stripes, this Chevelle has exactly the look enthusiasts want. The aggressive exterior is complemented by a beautiful Black Bucket Seat Interior, creating a classic combination that looks every bit as good today as it did during the height of the muscle-car era.

Under the functional Cowl Induction Hood sits a legendary 396 L78 375-horsepower V8 sourced from a 1969 Chevelle SS. The L78 was Chevrolet's high-performance solid-lifter 396 and remains one of the most respected big-block engines of the era. Combined with the unmistakable sound of the dual exhaust and Flowmaster mufflers, this Chevelle has the sound and attitude to match its appearance.

Backing the big-block is an M21 4-Speed Manual Transmission, putting the driver in complete control of this classic muscle car. Power is sent to a factory 12-bolt Posi traction rear end carrying CCW coding, another desirable component supporting this car's performance-oriented pedigree.

The car is believed to be a true Super Sport, and its restoration was completed to an impressive standard from top to bottom. This wasn't simply a cosmetic refresh. The attention to detail extends underneath the car, where the floors have been beautifully restored and finished to show-quality standards. The undercarriage is a major part of the presentation and reflects the level of time and investment that went into the overall restoration.

Up front, the functional Cowl Induction Hood with hood pins gives the Chevelle the unmistakable appearance associated with Chevrolet's most serious muscle cars. Inside, the driver is greeted by bucket seats along with a factory-style tachometer and gauges, providing the proper performance-oriented cockpit for a big-block, four-speed Chevelle.

The stance is completed by 15-inch SS wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires, delivering the classic muscle-car appearance that looks right at home beneath the Chevelle's sculpted body.

Most importantly, this Chevelle isn't just beautiful to look at it runs and drives great. The combination of big-block power, a 4-speed manual transmission, Posi traction rear end, functional Cowl Induction, and that unmistakable Flowmaster exhaust note makes getting behind the wheel every bit as enjoyable as admiring the restoration.
