Due to overwhelming popular demand(one guy) this is a short history of the 70 Chevelle I've had for 25 years. I got it as an SS 454 clone, so I do not feel bad about modifying it, resto mod style. Originally a 350/350 auto car, and when I bought it, it was converted with the 454, 4 speed, and 12 bolt rear end. After many years, the rust monster got into it pretty bad, so the restoration began. I was bored with the 454, classic look, and since it's not original went in a different direction. I have raced this car at the strip, and it was showing a respectable 550 hp. There is now a 950 ish hp short deck 572, GF5R face plated 5 speed, and a fabricated Ford 9" with new suspension out back. some of the pictures...
The last one is the wheel wells are stretched 4"s to fit 31" tall slicks, these are 31 street tires on a 15x12" wheel. Hope you enjoyed the short history.
