1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 L78
This 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 L78 showcases its muscle in Garnet Red. The high-performance DNA is evident in its stance, complemented by F70-14 tires on 14-inch wheels. A professional repaint gives this Chevelle a gleaming finish, emphasizing its iconic lines and chrome accents. Hinting at the type of restoration this masterpiece went through, the high-end Gardner dual exhaust system suggests the power within, while the presentation exudes authority on the street. Black vinyl adorns the bench seats, creating a focused cockpit built for serious driving. The dash features essential gauges, including auxiliary oil pressure and water temperature readouts. The floor-mounted shifter offers precise control, while the absence of unnecessary options emphasizes pure performance. The numbers-matching 396 cubic inch L78 V8 takes center stage. This high-output big block utilizes its correct Holley four-barrel carburetor and Winters intake manifold. The engine compartment is well-presented with proper components, including the 396 air cleaner and smog equipment. The "837" alternator is correct for this car and was reserved only for the Z/28 Camaro and L78 Chevelle. Power is transmitted through a Muncie 4-speed manual transmission to a robust KK-code 12-bolt rear end with 4.10 gears and Positraction. This powertrain combination delivers fierce acceleration and quarter-mile prowess.
