1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Tribute 454 V8 700R4 Auto Very Sharp Great Paint
When a car is right, you can tell just by looking at it. Given the predatory stance on this 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Tribute, there's no question the pros who built it did their homework. It's a potent big block car, packing a thundering 454 cubic inch V8 mated to an automatic overdrive transmission, and features a flashy restoration with some killer upgrades, all wrapped in a sinister black-on-red package that makes it stand out from the pack. From all external appearances, this looks like a genuine SS396, although these cars can be notoriously difficult to authenticate without a buildsheet and therefore ultimately fall under the 'Tribute' umbrella like this one. But on this car, it doesn't really matter as it was built for fun, and in that regard it succeeds famously. It's not the original color (that would be Code 50, Dover White), but this Chevelle now sports a coat of sinister black paint that really emphasizes the gentle arc of the Chevelle sheetmetal, not to mention the aggressive stance. It's deeper and shinier than any factory finish ever was, so it seems a shame even to call it Tuxedo Black, but whatever its name, it looks fantastic. This Chevelle looks like it's had its skin stretched tight over its chassis, and the excellent fit of the panels and professional prep give it a high-quality appearance that'll show well on Friday nights at your favorite hangout spot. Painted-on, deep maroon stripes provide the perfect amount of contrast, and they've been filled with gorgeous metal flake that really pops. There's an SS-style grille up front, proper SS 396 badges on the flanks and tailpanel, and brilliant chrome bumpers fore and aft. We like that they left off the ubiquitous and obnoxious tall cowl hood, opting for a double-hump stock unit that gives it a low-key look that's quite deceptive once you see it running like a scalded dog.
