Iconic SS 454 flare with a modern twist is the chosen style for this muscular Chevelle SS Convertible. Fully restored to a high standard and further refined and modified by the renowned customizers at Kindig It Design, this slick drop top is ready to wow crowds.
Stripped to bare metal and rotisserie restored, the body has been thoroughly massaged and polished to a high luster. It retains all the classic lines and features '70 Chevelles are known for, such as the functional cowl induction hood, polished hood pins, and twin racing stripes, while also improved with sleek, flush-mounted door handles, polished billet aluminum wheels, and a killer stance courtesy of Kindig It Design.
Under the hood lives a potent 454ci big block Chevrolet V8, just as there should be in a 1970 Chevelle Super Sport, nicely upgraded with aluminum cylinder heads, stainless steel headers, and electronic fuel injection, giving the engine a substantial bump in horsepower and reliability. The pros at Mark Clark Speed Sports get the nod for the engine improvements and tuning. Like the exterior, the engine compartment has also received the Kindig It treatment by way of custom sheetmetal enclosures surrounding the engine. A proven 5-speed overdrive Tremec transmission sends power to 12 bolt posi-traction rear end. Detroit Speed tubular control arms and heavy-duty sway bar stiffen the chassis and large Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes handle stopping duties.
The interior has also been upgraded in the best ways. Classic original styling upgraded with high quality materials and vastly improved fit and finish. Over-bolstered bucket seats flank a hand-fabricated center console and sit facing updated gauges and a polished Lecara steering wheel. Seats, console, door panels, dash pad, and conv boot cover have all been nicely upgraded with premium leather upholstery and custom stitching. Other features include a power folding top, tilt steering wheel, and AM/FM radio.
