Vehicle description
This 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle custom coupe is a nut-and-bolt build by Chip Foose, recently showcased by Foose at SEMA. Power comes from a 6.2L supercharged LSA engine paired with a 4-speed 4L60E automatic transmission. The engine was professionally built and features an upgraded camshaft, cylinder head work, performance exhaust, and intake system. Equipped with modern amenities and performance upgrades, this Chevelle includes an aftermarket air conditioning system, power steering, and four-wheel BAER disc brakes front and rear. A Ford 9-inch rear end with locker, Air Ride Technologies suspension, and MagnaFlow dual exhaust complete the drivetrain and chassis enhancements. The interior is finished to factory-original specification, featuring SS-style gauges and a discreet custom audio system, preserving the classic Chevelle appearance with modern functionality. The exterior reflects Foose's signature design philosophy-clean, intentional, and refined. In pursuit of visual symmetry, Chip Foose incorporated a front bumper from an El Camino to accommodate round parking lights, along with a custom-modified 1971 Chevelle rear bumper featuring round taillights and a custom rear panel with integrated dual exhaust outlets. The car is finished in a custom Foose-mixed paint color with unique SS striping and subtle Foose badging on the cowl hood. Rolling on one-off 18-inch Foose wheels wrapped in new tires, this Chevelle is a true one-of-one build, executed exactly as Foose envisioned-a thoughtfully reimagined muscle car by one of the most respected designers in the industry.
