Chevrolet Chevelle ZZ502 V8 1970

General description : ZZ502 CRATE V8, TCI STREETFIGHTER TRANS, AC, PS, 4WHEEL PWR BAER DISCS, WOW!!!

This 1970 Chevelle SS is an awful lot of car for the money. It packs a strong-running 502 crate motor, gorgeous paint, and a beautifully finished interior full of upgrades. There's always a lot of talk about matching numbers when discussing these cars, but that completely overlooks the fact that these cars are a ton of fun to drive, look awesome, and nice ones with great options are still out there ready to knock peoples' socks off at shows.
Originally code 55 Champagne Gold, they went in a different direction when it came time for a repaint, giving it a slick coat of metallic blue with black SS stripes, which are always welcome on an A-body with muscle. Bodywork is excellent throughout, with great gaps and a smooth finish thanks to hours and hours of block sanding before a drop of paint was sprayed. Look how nicely those quarters fit, the smooth, unbroken line that runs from nose to tail, and the gaps on the doors; this car was put together very carefully. 1970 is arguably the most popular year for Chevelles, both now and when they were new, and the look never goes out of style. Four headlights up front frame a correct black SS grille, while out back, a blacked-out rub strip with correct SS emblems highlights the bumper. Hood pins, a working cowl induction hood, and a set of shiny chrome bumpers all give it a correct look that is just beautifully executed. I don't care what you're driving, you're going to think twice when a big block Chevelle like this rolls up next to you.
Inside, this one has had a full makeover, including a set of black buckets with a custom console featuring a trick B&M shifter that ensures you'll never miss a gear. The original gauges are gone, replaced by a custom-fit set of Dakota Digital dials whose blue numerals work quite well with the electric blue bodywork. Without turning the key, it almost looks stock in there, save for the custom center console and slightly fatter steering wheel, but it comes alive brilliantly. The back seat also sports new seat covers, and fresh black carpet was installed throughout the passenger compartment. The dash pad and door panels also got an upgrade to match, and the restorer went the extra mile to get everything right by including fresh black seat belts and sound proofing insulation as well. This car was originally equipped with A/C, and today it is has been upgraded to R134a refrigerant with modern hardware working behind the scenes. There is no radio, but you probably won't miss it anyway, and the trunk is clean but stripped down, perhaps in preparation for some street action.
The engine is a ZZ502 inch big block that makes one heck of a statement there in the engine bay. It's obvious where the big money was spent, and it's very nicely detailed with satin black inner fenders and OEM-grade hardware throughout. As I mentioned, there's A/C with modern components on a serpentine drive system, and the big 502 has a burly idle that only comes from a healthy cam inside. That potent big block is ably supported by a TCI Streetfighter 3-speed automatic transmission turning a durable 10-bolt rear with a heavy-duty cover that reinforces the structure. There are Baer vented disc brakes at all four corners, and the exhaust system features burly sounding Patriot Performance mufflers with big chrome tips just under the rear bumper. It rides on a set of cool staggered Foose Torque Thrust replicas wearing 225/45/17 front and 275/35/18 BFGoodrich radials.
If you've been watching the market thinking that big block Chevelles were suddenly being priced out of reach, guess again. With good bones, a nice restoration, and awesome upgrades, this Chevelle simply couldn't be duplicated for the asking price. Call today!

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing.

No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.

When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.

Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.

To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.

With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
