135698 / 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle

Thanks to a $160K rotisserie reboot that was completed by Raleigh, North Carolina’s B-Mac’s Auto Restoration, this Chevelle realized its owner’s ultimate goal of wrapping timeless Chevrolet style around 21st century comfort and brutal performance. The foundation for that flash is a laser-straight body that was stripped bare, wet-sanded between sprays and wet-sanded for well over 100 hours after the paint process was complete. Speaking of sprays, this Chevy wears exactly 14 applications of PPG Vibrance 2-stage, which manifests as four coats of Gold Leaf, four coats of O-So-Sexy Red, double-layered Titanium Silver Super Sport stripes and four coats of clear. And today, roughly 1000 miles out of the restoration shop, the car has claimed quite a few Best of Show awards throughout the Carolinas. Gaze in to the car’s glossy engine bay and you’ll find 572 cubic inches of Chevrolet Performance big block that twists stout 9.6 to 1 compression into 620 horsepower and a massive 650 lb./ft. of torque! Behind that impressive big block, a tough SPEC Super Twin clutch kicks a proven Tremec T56 6-speed, which spins a custom driveshaft. That line twists torque to a 9-inch Moser axle that’s finished with a posi-traction differential and fancy TA inspection cover. That excellent drivetrain is framed by a heavily upgraded suspension that’s augmented with Air Ride Technologies’ Lev 7500 Level Pro Suspension Package. When the road starts to twist, Flaming River power steering utilizes a 12:1 gearbox to maximize driver input. At the corners, big Wilwood calipers squeeze four drilled and slotted rotors with the help of a Baer proportioning valve and Hydratech hydroboost hydraulics. And rubber scars the pavement thanks to polished Billet Specialties wheels and Nitto NT555 Extreme ZR radials. With its awesome motor, smooth body and fully sorted chassis, this Chevelle is the very definition of American muscle. Call, click or visit for more information! Chevrolet Chevelle/135698
