Overview
Worried about buying a car because of depreciation over time? According to statistics, a car loses 10% of its value after being driven off the lot and an additional 15-25% per year. When you purchase a classic car, you can drive it, enjoy it, and potentially make money over time as these cars tend to appreciate in value every year. The 1970 Chevelle Convertible is arguably one ofthe most iconic and sought after muscle cars of the era being that very few of them were produced and it was the epitome of having luxury and muscle! It was also the last year where limits were pushed with big cubes and big horsepower! Because they are getting harder and harder to find, the value climbs up over time as the demand for such a unique piece of automotive art. Don't miss out on an opportunity like this to own your dream car!
Let No Reserve Classics Put Your Dream Car in Your Driveway Today!
The Chevrolet Chevelle is a mid-sized automobile which was produced by Chevrolet in three generations for the 1964 through 1977 model years. Part of the General Motors (GM) A-Body platform, the Chevelle was one of Chevrolet’s most successful nameplates. Documented as one of the greatest Chevelle’s ever produced, the 1970 Chevelle was the highest powered Chevelle manufactured in the model’s lifetime, which ran from 1964 through 1977, and was the only GM car at the time to have ever topped the horsepower rating of the Corvette with its LS6 Model.
In the hierarchy of the street, circa 1970, there were the Big Dogs and then there was everyone else. Having 400 cubic inches under the hood didn’t cut it anymore at the Stoplight Grand Prix. The name of the game was horsepower and the more grunt the better, and more grunt meant more cubic inches and more horsepower. The old standard “there’s no replacement for displacement” was never truer in 1970, and sitting atop the muscle car food chain was Chevrolet’s SS Chevelle.
The team at No Reserve Classics is very happy to offer a triple Black 1970 Chevelle SS 396 boasting a powered drop top! A true American muscle car built inKansas City, Missouri carrying a Fuel Injected 396ci Big Block engine. It is a classic car with plenty of modern features and upgrades to get you cruising to car shows or down the shore with the top dropped! There is plenty to be said about this car as it has underwent a massive drivetrain, suspension, and electrical restoration to get this one of a kind ’70 Chevelle driving like a modern day cruiser.
Included with the sale of the car is a massive 3″ Binder full of Documents, Receipts, and Installation Manuals of many of the products that were used during the build!
