1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396

Description

This is the kind of muscle car that should get you excited. After all, this is an iconic 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396. And because the trim tag tells us the Daytona Yellow is correct, we know it's a real-deal Super Sport! And this extra-vibrant color is just the attractor to a full package that includes vintage premium details, an authentic style, and serious big block muscle.

The factory-correct Daytona Yellow was exclusive to the Super Sport series, and so it's important to make sure this important paint gets the respect it deserves. So not only was the color refreshed later in life, but this was even recently given a professional detail to keep it radiant. The full-length black stripe is a tasteful contrast that also loves to highlight the solid bodywork. And we love how it goes nicely with the premium black vinyl roof. Plus, the form-fitting bumpers shine like mirrors; the Super Sport badges are complete; and we love the details like the dual power dome hood and large dual exhaust tips. And while the vintage style is awesome, this also has a nice upgrade to American Racing Torq Thrust wheels. They have a style and attractive polish to go with the rest of the car, but the larger size and 17/18-inch staggered stance give this a mean look and modern grippy tires. So it's a real-deal SS that was also made to be driven.

The black accents of the exterior get you ready for the full blackout interior. Just like the outside, they made investments in all the right places, like the seats, door panels, dash, and carpeting. So it's a great place to spend some time. Plus, this is a true bucket seat interior, so you get high-back individual comfort with a proper center console. In fact, the whole interior is built around you. It's an easy reach to the horseshoe shifter, and the classic tine SS steering wheel feels grippy in your hands. In front of you is a full readout package done with real dials instead of lights - including a tach. And while they upgraded you to a retro-style AM/FM stereo, we bet your real favorite soundtrack comes from when you roll down all the windows on this hardtop and let the big block sing.

The 369 cubic-inch powerplant is a 1969-code CE 396 warranty block. So this Super Sport feels like it has a proper history with GM. Dressed to look stock, it has traditional chrome valve covers, an open-element air cleaner with correct 396 decals, and bright Chevy Orange paint on the block. This big block inhales deeply with a big four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with added power and authority as long-tube headers feed the dual exhaust and Dynomax mufflers. The TH400 three-speed automatic transmission is a stout but smooth unit that feeds into a 12-bolt rear end. Power steering, power brakes, front discs, and boxed rear arms are all part of a solid driving package for this true Super Sport.

A true Chevelle SS with a big block punch and handsome good looks is a rare find. So you know you can't let this powerful hardtop slip away. Call today!!!
