1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 Convertible with custom ordered Hugger Orange and Air Conditioning
Rare custom ordered 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle convertible SS
This car was stored for over 35 years in a private Texas museum and has now been fully restored to pristine condition.
1970 Chevelle SS convertible with its not just period correct but the original “born with” engine, transmission and differential.
The engine VIN deck stamping is non existent which is not surprising for a custom ordered car but the block stampings and date code are 100% correct for the build date of this car which was the 4th week of February.
The TH400 transmission is the correct date code and ever so much more important it has the matching VIN number.
We have many photos available for this car.
This car was custom ordered as evidenced by the cowl trim tag as the paint code is just a single “dash” denoting custom paint which in this case was hugger orange.
To add to the cars rarity, it has factory air conditioning which was completely restored better than new .
Photos of the codes are provided in the picture sets.
It is a 54 year old antique car and I did not want to alter that with the introduction of modern parts with the attempt to preserve it in as built condition.
If you want a “resto-mod” or a LS engine then this is not the car for you.
The Chevelle SS is showing 000 miles on the odometer as we had to replace some faulty gauges.
The Chevelle SS was “born” with the following factory options:
Power Brakes
Power Steering
power convertible top
Air conditioning
remote mirror adjustment
396 Big block engine
TH400 Auto transmission
Seat Belts
Center Console
Super Sport Package
INTERIOR:
All components replaced or restored as or better than new. Correct gauge cluster. Original seat frames. New OEM style carpets.
Retrosound Upgrade OEM style stereo
EXTERIOR:
The car received new Hugger Orange paint which was its original color with a new OEM thickness made in USA black convertible top as original. Paint was upgraded to base coat with 4 coats of clear and color sanded to a mirror reflective finish.
Drivetrain and Chassis:
This cars undercarriage is just as clean as the body,
The Big block 396 engine was rebuilt. The block was in incredible condition and still utilizes its original pistons and other internal components. The distributor was internally updated to a pertronix points conversion but externally still appears as factory from 1970.
The TH400 transmission was fully rebuilt and the differential only required gaskets and seals as all internal parts were in great condition.
All brakes and steering were replaced or rebuilt.
The car has 14 wheels with BF Goodrich tires.

    Very nice! You would have a lot more fun with that nice horseshoe shifter by swapping the factory detent out for a True Slap detent plate. They let you slap shift twice and they provide a Neutral lockout feature. They are simple to install and make the car even more fun.

    1968 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 1968 Chevelle SS with its numbers matching drive train - not just period correct but the original “born with” engine, transmission and differential. The engine VIN deck stamping does match the car. Check the photo of the rolling completed chassis with all those original components and not a Frankenstein version that most Chevelles are that are compromised of scrap yard parts. We have many photos of before during and after the extensive restoration. This Chevelle had been sitting for approximately 35 years in a conditioned building in the North Carolina mountains.. This Chevelle was 100% unmolested. It still had the original GM under chassis paint without rust. The car had its original AM radio which we replaced with a modern but vintage appearing version. I do have many photos of the original car before and during the complete nut and bolt restoration. It is a 55 year old antique car and I did not want to alter that with the introduction of modern parts with the attempt to preserve it in as built condition. If you want a “resto-mod” or a LS engine then this is not the car for you. The Chevelle SS is showing 98000 miles on the odometer and I cannot state if that is original mileage. The car now rests in a climate controlled garage. The Chevelle SS was “born” with the following factory options: Power Brakes Power Steering Deluxe interior Vinyl top 396 Big block engine TH400 Auto transmission Seat Belts Center Console Super Sport Package INTERIOR: All components replaced or restored as or better than new. Correct gauge cluster. Original seat frames. New OEM style carpets. EXTERIOR: The car received new Island Teal paint which was its original color with a new OEM thickness black vinyl top as original. Paint was upgraded to base coat with 3 coats of clear and color sanded to a mirror finish. Drivetrain and Chassis: This cars undercarriage is just as clean as the body, Frame was fully blasted and painted with genuine GM restoration paint. The Big block 396 engine was rebuilt as new. The block was in incredible condition and still utilizes its original pistons and other internal components.The cam and lifters were changed to Melling with a slight higher lift to provide a more full sound and extra power. The 396 provides in excess of 350 hp. The distributor was internally updated to a pertronix points conversion but externally still appears as factory from 1968. The TH400 transmission was fully rebuilt and the differential only required gaskets and seals as all internal parts were in great condition. Car has Pypes “X” stainless steel exhaust system. The power steering pump was rebuilt so is original to the car. All brakes and steering were replaced or rebuilt. The original 14 inch wheels were replaced with 15 inch rally wheels with stainless steel center caps and BF Goodrich tires.
