2024 Chevelle SS

[trapoholic]

The 1970 Chevelle SS has returned in the form of a super car made by a custom shop.  The headlights and taillights seem to resemble the current Camaro produced by Chevrolet. There are three available engines. The entry level price tag is $160,000. Add on all the extras including a 1500 HP powerplant and the price tag jumps up to well over $200,000!

Don't know but 70 was a very Good Year

1970 Chevelle SS 454

The “SS” in this gorgeous car stands for Super Sport. This Chevelle was an aggressive move by General Motors to compete against the powerful Chrysler cars powered by the big-block Hemi engines and the lightning-fast Cobra Jet Ford Mustangs that could be purchased right from the factory. The 1970 Chevelle SS was ready for drag racing as soon as it rolled out of the assembly line thanks to the LS6 7.4L V8 engine, which delivered 450 hp and 500 ft-lbs of torque at the amazing compression rate of 11:25:1. An even faster version of the Chevelle SS was manufactured a year earlier. The specific purpose was to deliver them to car racing legend Don Yenko, who tuned the stock Chevy into a monster Yenko Super Car. Today, the car is valued at more than $2 million by collectors of classic and exotic vehicles.

Yes, the 1970 model year is considered by many to be the ultimate muscle car for the Chevelle. The 1971 model year HP ratings dropped down on all the muscle cars manufactured in the US. But there was still decent power in the 1971-72 model years. In 1973 all automakers had to go with the plastic front bumper.
