In 1970, sheetmetal revisions gave the Chevy Chevelle bodies a more squared-up stance following the coke bottle styling. The ’70 Chevy Chevelle SS included a 350 hp (260 kW) Turbo-Jet 396 V8, special suspension, “power dome” hood, black-accented grille, resilient rear-bumper insert, and wide-oval tires on sport wheels.

“You can make our tough one even tougher,” the brochure explained, by adding Cowl Induction to the SS 396. Step on the gas, and a scoop opened “to shoot an extra breath of cool air into the engine air intake….like second wind to a distance runner.”

The interior of this model has a roll-bar installed. The seat is part of the baseplate, giving this model a interior that consist of two colors.
