Check out the Dupont Cherry Bomb Red paint on this 69 Chevelle! It looks pretty sweet to me, but don’t just think this Chevelle is all show and no go, because this muscle car features a big block Chevy between it’s fenders that is punched out to 468ci. Putting all that power to the ground is not a problem with the 700R4 automatic transmission and a 12 bolt posi rear end sporting 3:73 gears. So as you can see this 69 Chevelle is not just another pretty face out cruising the streets.

Where do you start when it comes to talking about this beautiful Pro Street 1965 Chevelle. Somebody spent a lot of time and money trying to reach perfection with this muscle car. So here is the run down on this Chevelle.

Here is a video that shows this awesome Pro Street Chevelle in better detail. So check it out if you want.

This custom yellow 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle 300 is just about the perfect 67 Chevelle in my opinion. The owner of this fine muscle car started out with a pretty nice 58,000 original mile 1967 Chevelle 300, and then gave it a complete rotisserie restoration while adding a few personal touches to the car.

Powering this 1967 Chevelle is a 327 small block Chevy that produces a stout 350 horsepower along with an updated 700R4 automatic transmission, with the whole car rolling on a set of 17X8 Boyd Billet wheels.

Moss green might not have been the most popular muscle car paint color, but this moss green 1968 Chevelle really stood out when I was looking for more muscle cars to post on this website. It’s nothing fancy just a good daily driver Chevelle with a 300 horsepower 350ci small block Chevy. This moss green 68 Chevelle also features an automatic transmission, power steering, rally wheels, and a really low key interior featuring a bench seat.

This screaming yellow 1970 Chevelle SS is a fantastic example of a muscle car that you would want to drive almost every day. The yellow paint is good, but not show quality so your not worrying about rain and possible rock chips all the time. The 350 small block Chevy engine in this 70 Chevelle is powerful yet still completely streetable thanks to a supercharger and a 4bl Holley Carb. attached to an automatic transmission.

There is no missing this bright orange 69 Chevelle if you pass it on the street! This fine example of 60′s muscle is sporting a 454 big block chevy and a Munci M-20 4 speed connected to a posi rear end with 3.42 gears along with 12″ disk brakes!

Check out this beautiful red 67 Chevelle that is sporting a nicely detailed 427 with Tri Power! I bet this beauty can really Rock N Roll!

Although you could order a new Chevrolet Chevelle in 1970 with a 6 cylinder engine, it was the LS6 454 that turned the muscle car world upside down. The heart of the LS6 Chevelle was an all steel block 454 cubic inch engine with forged aluminum pistons producing 11.25:1 compression, solid lifters, four-bolt mains, forged steel crank and connecting rods, all topped off by an aluminum manifold and an 800 cfm Holley four barrel carburetor. This monster motor put out a whopping 450 hp @ 5600 rpm and 500 lb-ft @ 3600 rpm. This was enough power to put the 70 Chevelle LS6 well into the 13 second quarter mile range.

Here is a close up of the fully functional cowl induction hood on the Chevelle.

Here is a picture of Ray Allen racing his 1970 LS6 Chevelle Convertible. Most of us couldn’t even imagine having a LS6 Chevelle, let alone a convertible that is turned into a drag car. I know it was no big deal in 1970, but looking back today it is hard to believe.

The 65 Chevelle also had two new engine options available. The first was the availability of an inline six cylinder engine that was available in the Super Sport, with 7,452 65 Chevelle Coupe, and 1,133 65 Chevelle Convertible produced with this option. The best engine option that was available in 1965 was the Z16 option. When you purchased a Z16 Chevelle also commonly known as the Chevelle SS 396 option, you received a powerful 396 cubic inch engine that produced 375 hp @ 5600 rpm and 375 lb-ft @ 3600 rpm. For the first time in the Chevrolet Chevelle line up it was able to compete head to head with the Pontiac GTO.

Unfortunately to be able to compete head to head with the Pontiac GTO the Z16 Chevelle came at a steep price tag of $4,100. With this new engine package tacking on an additional $1,300 to the price of a Chevelle SS 327 it was just too expensive for most people, and as a result only 201 were produced. For those lucky 201 people who were able to afford the new 1965 Z16 Chevelle they received a whole host of upgrades including, chrome engine components, dual exhausts with special manifolds, a four speed transmission, upgraded shocks, reinforced suspension components, larger 11” drum brakes and a 160 mph speedometer.
