1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Description

This 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 gets everything right the stance, big block motor, four-on-the-floor, color combo, and restored with custom touches that make it a standout while respecting the history. If you are a fan of horsepower and have been looking for just the right A-body to satisfy your needs, look no further.You know the best Super Sports come in black. It makes these mid-sized cars look brutal, sinister, and downright predatory when they're done as good as this one. Just one look and you recognize the high level of restoration, because the professional application of the midnight hue has so much luster that you'd swear they make black mirrors. The white stripe specific to the 396 cars cuts like a laser through all that black paint, and gives the Chevelle a simple, clean look and emphasizes the awesome stance. Mirror-like chrome on the bumpers, fresh emblems, a blacked-out SS grille, and a lot of careful assembly lets you know there was a serious investment in restoring this coupe into the best bad boy on the planet. And when you fill the wheel wells with 17-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels, you properly cap off a total intimidation package.One look inside, and you know this Chevelle has everything you want. It starts with the high-back bucket seats. There was some investment here because the black vinyl shows very little seat time. In between is the optional center console a new iconic Hurst shifter. The carpets, door panels, and dash all have a very fresh feeling to them. You'll slip behind the factory-correct two-spoke steering wheel, and see the full gauge instrument panel that includes a large speedo and very important tach. There are plenty of people who will want to go for a ride in your cool Chevelle, so to keep them comfortable there's the heat/defrost and AM/FM stereo with aux input.Under the hood is what you're going to love most about this restored Chevelle. The 396 cubic-inch V8 is ready for show duty wearing its correct bright valve covers, intake, and air cleaner. Plus, the big orange block is so bold it practically radiates power from the black engine bay. There are a ton of receipts for plenty of new components within the last year (call for all the details.) All the correct hoses are in place, and everything looks ready for you to simply pop the hood and wait for the crowd to gather. But to understand how much of a labor of love this restoration was, take a look at the undercarriage photos. This is a place where few people will see, but where you can really judge the quality of a classic. But you should do more than just admire this coupe; you need to drive it. A Holley four-barrel carburetor tops this big block, just like a good 396 should. That helps with the dominant exhaust note and the street eating power... and you're in control of all of this thanks to the four-speed manual transmission. No matter if you're out tearing up the asphalt or just on a Sunday cruise, the power steering and front disc brakes are always welcomed driving features.This Chevelle is one of those pristine classics that also features great driving characteristics. So this is the one you'll take the long road home after you grab the trophies at the car show. Well, that's only true if you're quick enough to grab this deal. Call today!!!
