Recently spotted at the Muscle Cars and Corvette Nationals.

At the recent Muscle Cars and Corvette Nationals (MCACN), a 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS stood out, not just for its impeccable restoration but for its rarity, thanks to a unique factory option. The Chevrolet Chevelle, which debuted in 1963, swiftly became a key player in the muscle car wars, peaking in 1970 with the SS 454 LS6. However, it's a 1969 model, with a rare factory option, that's currently capturing the spotlight.

This Azure Turquoise Chevelle SS 396, one of 86,307 sold in 1969, may not seem rare at first glance. However, the distinction lies in the details. In 1969, Chevrolet offered three versions of the 396-cubic-inch engine, and this car is one of the 9,486 equipped with the top-tier 375-horsepower L78 engine. What sets this particular Chevelle SS apart is its painted roof, a rarity among Chevelles.
