New Chevelle SS

jeffrefrig · Jan 31, 2023

I think the model is 70 Chevelle SS for 2022/23. The bottom feeder base is a 5.3 Liter 460 HP: $150,000. The top is a supercharged 454 C.I. 1500 HP. It's one thing sneaking a $475 piece of blued steel with handles wrapped in Walnut into the house; driving a rumbling earthquake into the garage just might peak her curiosity a bit. And probably pick off a few neighbors!
I need to learn more. Anybody have one yet?

I'd love to but can't do it on a pension and SS.

I dearly love to have one but I passed up my chance for a Chevelle SS 396 back in 1967.

I now drive this

289 V-8 4 bbl, 271 HP.

I don't need to get to Cracker Barrel that quickly. Besides, I'm pretty certain my next conveyance will be electric.

At that price will it fit in at a deer camp back in the boonies? How many bucks will it carry back to town? Just wondering.

So are we talking about a full frame-off restoration of 1970 Chevelle SS's for sale in various configurations as a "new" car?
I hadn't heard or seen anything about these being made available.

Rustyt1953 · Feb 1, 2023

The new 70/SS is a reborn Chevelle Super Sport available with 1,500bhp+ | Top Gear

In my opinion, along with the 63' split window Vette, 60's styling at it's best. Beauty!

OK, so not an actual 1970 Chevelle SS, but rather another "reimagined" modern version of a classic muscle car.
Pretty cool, and as retro-rods go, a lot more true to the style of the original than most.
I LIKE IT!

Nice! I appreciate a Chevy kinda like I appreciate Colts. I'm really a Ford guy; a GT350 sort. Kinda like I'm a Smith and Wesson guy.

Chevy and Colts are nice. But Ford and Smith & Wesson for the win!

It's painful to look at the rear end of it.

I think Dodge did a great job bringing back Challenger, and Ford did okay with the Mustang, but Chevy dropped the ball with the Camaro, and the Chevelle.

I saw an Electric 4 door Mustang the other day for the first time. The only way that design will grow on you is if you are susceptible to fungus! YUCK

Looks to me like wealthy corporate America catering to wealthy America. Joe Average is not going to be buying them.

Chevy also dropped the ball with the Blazer:

to THIS????

I hate crossovers, unless you can see the badge on the grill they all look the same

Too many seats.

Thank you, BC38 for letting me know what the heck the OP was writing about.

That blue bad boy is a 1973 or 74. My first car was a 1974 K-5 Blazer!

Much later my brother had s-10 Blazers, a 2 door 2 wheel drive (yuck!) and a 1998 4 door 4wd. Those were for soccer moms! The new crossovers are for the same! My bride drove a real 4x4 with pride! And looked good doing it!

beauty is in the eye of the beholder. i had a 70 chevelle, it was the first car i bought when i was discharged from the army.
i like the look of the one being discussed here but there's no way i will ever be able to own one.

i also had a 68 z28 camaro that i sold when i came home on my first leave after being drafted a couple years earlier.

wish i still had both of them but those days are long gone and now they're just fond memories.
