At this point, Chevy’s 1970 LS6 Chevelle requires no introduction: with its rectangle-port heads and 2.19/1.88-inch valves, high-lift cam, forged crank and rods, 780-cfm Holley carb, and more, Chevy rated its 454-cube LS6 at an audacious 450 horsepower. Just 4,475 LS6-equipped A-bodies were made for 1970, and they remain the stuff of legend—arguably the pinnacle of the muscle car movement.
It was a well-optioned beast from new. Any LS6 Chevelle required the $503 SS 454 option as well as the $263 LS6 package. Beyond the striking color combination and the TH400 transmission, it had the Cowl Induction hood, a 3.31:1 axle ratio with Posi-traction, power steering, tilt wheel, bucket seats with console, tinted glass, power top, and more, bringing it to nearly a $5,000 MSRP. That’s base Corvette coupe money, for a Chevelle—albeit a Chevelle with an engine that even the Corvette didn’t get that year, and which let the atmosphere hammer your hairline at speed.
This exquisite diecast model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish.
