Patrick Glenn Nichols Musclecar Barn Finds

This 1970 LS6 SS454 Chevelle was disguised as a 1971 model by the original owner to be raced as a 365HP in a slower class. According to the current owner and others who knew the car claim the entire car was paid for from drag race winnings. The car has been stored away and parked since 1989 and still retains its original window sticker, drivetrain, and protecto plate.

This car was ordered by a disabled US military veteran in a wheelchair. This is why it was ordered with bucket seats and no center console, made it easier to put his wheelchair in the car. He added the chrome on the driver side to keep his chair from scratching up the car. It still had hand controls on the steering wheel when it was purchased by the second owner.

It’s great seeing these barn finds. Most people don’t think they exist anymore, under the assumption people recognized their value and restored them, or sold them. But there are also a lot of personal stories here that prevent that from happening, either for sentimental value, or lack of $. For instance, I have a 63 340hp hipo split window I’ve had since 2005, in the family since 1980....and I just got started on the resto. On that note, Patrick, I have original photos and sales paperwork for a 68 RS Z28 and 70 LS6 my dad owned back in the day I’d like to locate if you can help. If anyone wants to see the period pics, I’ll scan them

Nice find. I had a Cranberry Red/white top/black interior '72 Chevelle Malibu convertable that had the 350 4bbl, bucket seat, console, horseshoe shifter, tach package, AM 8-Track stereo, (yes, I said stereo, it had 4 speakers) and air conditioning. All factory. My parents ordered the car that way. I don't remember what plant it was made at but the build sheet was under the butt cushion of the back seat inside the springs. By the time I got to it (late 80's) it was pretty much destroyed from mice and moisture.

Back in the 70's there was some sort of ruling in a drag racing sanctioning body which insisted that cars be current models. There was an article in Hot Rod Magazine showing a Camaro being reskinned to make it a later model. This SS seems to be have been disguised to do something similar.

Since you're obviously a Chevelle fan, and, especially a fan of the 1970 model (as I am!), you should find a copy of the November/December 2018 issue of Vintage Truck Magazine. The cover truck is a cranberry red/white stripe 1970 El Camino SS. It's a highly optioned L-34/4 speed car/ truck. Just by being an El Camino SS makes it rare and interesting to me.
