This 1970 Chevrolet Camaro SS was refurbished under previous ownership before being acquired by the seller in 2014. The car is finished in red over a black interior, and power comes from a 396ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission and a 12-bolt positraction rear axle. Features include Rally Sport-trim, a rear spoiler, rear window defroster, power front disc brakes, power steering, auxiliary gauges, sport mirrors, and an AM/FM cassette stereo. This split-bumper Camaro is offered in Texas with spare parts and Montana title in the name of the seller’s LLC.
The car is said to have been refinished in its original red under prior ownership. The Rally Sport package was an option on 1970 models that included a unique nose and split front chrome bumper treatment, front parking lights, and hidden windshield wipers. Additional features include a blacked-out tail panel, dual sport mirrors, and a rear glass defroster. The seller notes poor bodywork on the panel under the rear bumper and scratches on the driver-side window and right rear quarter panel.
The five-spoke 15″ Kelsey Hayes-style wheels feature bowtie center caps, polished lips, and wear white-letter BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires. The car is equipped with power-assisted steering and optional special suspension, which incorporates stiffer springs, a larger front swaybar, and added a rear swaybar. Braking is provided by power-assisted front discs and rear drums.
The cabin features black vinyl bucket seats with a matching dashboard, carpets, and door panels with wood veneer inlays. Features include vinyl floor mats, headrests, a Hurst shifter, and an AM/FM Radio that does not work. The seller notes that the under-dash rattles, the speakers are not installed, the seats are said to require rebuilding, and loose wiring under the dash requires attention.
The two-spoke steering wheel frames a 150-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 5,000-rpm redline, and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 39k miles, approximately 300 of which have been added by the seller. Total mileage is unknown. The seller notes the speedometer flutters at cruising speeds.
The original engine is said to have been replaced with a 396ci V8 which features a four-barrel carburetor, headers, HEI electronic ignition, an Edelbrock intake manifold, and dual exhaust system. Service in 2021 includes an oil change and lubricating underbody components.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and a 12-bolt rear axle with a 4.10:1 gear ratio. The seller notes the rear torsion bar hits the differential.
