This Chevelle is now the earliest “known” 1970 Chevelle SS built at the Atlanta, Georgia assembly plant to surface to date. The 825th unit at the Lakewood assembly plant 1970 model production run was hiding for years in Tennessee. The car was purchased new in Tullahoma, TN and relocated to Michigan for few years before coming back to TN to hide.

I have a 70 chevelle sports coupe done the same way. Early model with the chrome under the head lights etc..it’s a Canadian built car. Living in upstate New York it’s a true survivor. Love seeing the real SS cars knowing that’s what mine was cloned from. Real SS or not I smile everyday I look in the garage 👍 thanks Patrick

Great job documenting on this super nice SS Patrick. I absolutely love the 1970 SS in white, one of my most favorite colors offered. Agreed, not every car needs a full frame off restoration, just a freshen up while keeping all original parts intact. I saw a 1970 SS that was for sale a couple months ago that was white with black stripes and red interior. Would have loved to seen you break that one down and see what was original and what was added. Again, love your content, keep it coming.

Patrick, You are obviously the most knowledgeable person when it comes to Chevelles. My question here is, I know I've heard this several times before, but with this being such an early production car, is the motor an actual 396? By that I mean not the actual 402 that most 70-72 SS 396 cars, being .30 over bored 396 blocks.

I like your position on"restored" cars...They're original only once.As far as "restored" cars go,how many of them are actually correctly restored? Too many people use the term"restored" in the wrong way."Refurbished" or "re-habed" is more like it. Like Patrick says,we need to embrace the flaws that an original car presents...There are fewer left every day.
