1970 Chevrolet Very Rare Chevelle SS 454 LS5 Convertible Why This Car Is Special We have a super rare and correct restored 1970 Chevrolet SS 454 LS5 Convertible here at Skyway Classics with a real #512 block 454 cubic inch monster big block engine, 4-speed manual transmission, 12-bolt read end, white convertible top and interior, red paint, and air conditioning! It is not often that you will find a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS LS5 454 convertible with those options and a white bucket seat interior that has a lot of originality too and looks as it did when it was new. Chevelle's are immensely popular cars and none are so much highly sought after as the 1970 model packing that big block 454 LS5 engine. Recent documentation now confirms that fewer LS5 cars were produced (90 total LS5 convertibles 70 were 4-speeds, don't know how many with air) than LS6 cars in 1970 and the LS5 Chevelle is actually rarer than the LS6 Chevelle. Of those LS5 cars, only 91 of them were fitted in convertibles with only 70 or so being 4-speeds, let alone this one has factory air conditioning and the #75 code red paint and #791 code Ivory interior, with the Ivory top also!
