The Model: Chevrolet’s original concept for the Chevelle line introduced in 1964, was to compete in a new “mid-size” market with the likes of the Ford Fairlane, and to an extent Pontiac’s Tempest series. 1964 is also when a new market niche was created known as the Muscle Car. Put a big engine into a medium-sized car. While it took Chevrolet a while to catch up to both the Pontiac GTO with a 389, in late 1965, the 396 cid “Rat Motor” was stuffed under the hood and the rest was history. In 1966, the SS-396 became an official model and sales were stronger than could have been predicted. For 1969, Super Sports had lost their individual model designation and became a package available on any Chevelle. More than just an engine, this era of the SS featured beefed up suspension, wheels, badges and best of all, a guaranteed thrill ride. The Malibu hardtop was the most popular model to find the SS package on.

The Car: Verifying the authenticity of a genuine Super Sport became a bit tougher for the 1969 model year, but this car’s original owner picked the right items to be able to prove, this is a real-deal documented with its build sheet factory original SS. First piece of originality, the numbers matching engine under the hood. The second piece, the trim tag which indicates this car came from the factory in color #72, Monaco Orange, available on Chevelle only when the SS package was ordered. Treated to a “no expense spared” restoration, this car features all the right stuff, solid four-speed manual transmission, black vinyl bench seat, SS wheels, badges and workmanship that commands attention wherever this car is shown and trophies when judged. Featuring outstanding cosmetics for the sheet metal, interior, undersides, and under the hood, all of the mechanics have been brought back to new. From the big things, like proper colors and proper date coded parts, to little things like replicating the factory chalk markings on the cowl and even the rear axle. Ready to compete and win on the show field or if you choose, the quarter mile, either way this Chevelle is a winner waiting to win.
