A highly coveted and unrestored 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle LS6 Convertible is set to cross the auction block at Mecum’s Indy Fall Special on October 5, 2024. This rare muscle car, one of the most sought-after Chevelle models, has been meticulously preserved by a single family since it was purchased new and comes with the original build sheet and extensive documentation, making it a true gem for collectors.
Under the hood, this Chevelle boasts its factory-original, numbers-matching 454/450 HP V-8 engine, which was the most powerful engine Chevrolet offered in 1970. Paired with a matching automatic transmission and a 4.10 Positraction rear end, this unrestored LS6 delivers the performance muscle car enthusiasts crave. Adding to its appeal is the fact that it retains its original Cranberry Red paint and has been garage-kept its entire life, preserving its stunning exterior. The car’s Ivory interior remains just as impressive, featuring bucket seats, a center console, and power windows, offering both style and comfort.
Further enhancing this Chevelle's allure is the F41 suspension, power steering, power front disc brakes, and other features designed for high-performance driving. The sale includes not only the original build sheet but also sales invoices and ownership history, providing a comprehensive background for potential buyers.
With its combination of rarity, originality, and documented history, this 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle LS6 Convertible is expected to draw significant attention at the auction, making it a prized addition to any serious car collection.
