1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS L78

This highly documented 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 is a rare and exceptionally well-preserved example of Chevrolet’s legendary muscle car era. Power comes from the formidable 396ci L34 V-8 engine, factory rated at 350 horsepower, paired with its original and correct “CF” Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission and matching “CW” coded rear axle, preserving the authenticity collectors look for in a true Super Sport.

Finished in extremely desirable and seldom-seen “ZP3” Hugger Orange paint, this Chevelle is believed to be one of only 14 special-ordered examples produced in this striking color for the 1970 model year. The car retains its rust-free original body panels, a testament to both careful ownership and its California heritage. Originally delivered new through Jack Wall Chevrolet in Pasadena, California, this SS has remained an outstanding example of Chevrolet performance and style.

Equipped with the F41 Special Performance Suspension package, power steering, power brakes, and factory air conditioning, this Chevelle delivers the perfect blend of muscle car performance and drivability. The aggressive stance, iconic body lines, and vibrant factory color combination make it an attention-grabbing example both on the road and at shows.

Further enhancing its provenance, the original build sheet accompanies the sale, providing valuable documentation of its factory specifications and options. The title also reflects just 63,000 original miles, supporting the car’s exceptionally preserved condition and authenticity.

Combining rare factory color, documented originality, desirable drivetrain components, and rust-free California pedigree, this 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 represents a unique opportunity to own one of the most iconic American muscle cars ever produced.
