Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 (1970)

Kickdown's Take

by Art Georges

This 1970 Chevelle SS 396 is an exceptionally well-built restomod in which virtually every component has been upgraded. The engine, transmission, and rear axle suggest original SS specifications, which cannot be confirmed by the VIN alone; the 1970 Chevelle SS, in particular, is very rare and in high demand. Wilwood brakes, a Koni/Eibach suspension, and modern climate control make it perfectly suitable for everyday use without losing its classic character. An appraisal confirms a replacement value of over 135,000 euros. Ideal for enthusiasts of American muscle cars who want a powerful, classic V8 that’s both reliable and comfortable to drive.

Vehicle description
  • Kickdown Check

    • On-site kickdown assessment completed
      • 111 photos
      • Video including engine run and test drive
    • Extensively rebuilt restomod vehicle: features include a fully overhauled 396 6.2-liter V8, new genuine leather interior, all major components replaced, disc brakes all around, and Koni/Eibach suspension. Only high-quality parts were used with the goal of building a classic car suitable for everyday use
    • Appraisal report available from August 2025; replacement value over €135,000
    • With Chevelle models, the VIN alone does not indicate whether it is an SS model. In this particular example, however, the engine, transmission, and rear axle point to original SS specifications. 1970 models in this condition are virtually impossible to find on the market
    • The last service was performed in 2026
