Chevrolet's Chevelle is a legendary nameplate in classic car circles now, but back in its heyday, it was just another Chevy, competing in the mid-size segment from 1964 to 1972. Chevy offered the Chevelle in a dizzying array of body styles, including two- and four-door sedans, two- and four-door hardtops, convertibles, coupes, coupe utilities, and station wagons. There was a Chevelle for everyone, with a choice of in-line six or V8 power. Of course, Chevy wanted to go after the muscle car crowd as well, hence the Super Sport or SS models. This 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS is one of those, a survivor of the muscle car era and a highly desirable classic in 2023.
Showcasing a classy blue exterior, this 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS sees black racing stripes adorning the exterior for added sportiness. Being of the second generation which debuted in 1968, the 1972 model year saw a new single-unit side marker and parking lamp design, plus a revised grille design. This was typical of Chevy at the time, to create some small revision or update to their cars for every model year. Inside, this 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS sports a black leather upholstered interior that's reportedly original, with blue floor mats and a set of bench seats. You'll also note that the radio is the original unit, and everything else looks period-correct. You won't find automatic dual-zone climate control, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto or any of the other technological fripperies that we enjoy on contemporary automobiles, as the Sixties and Seventies were a totally different era. Instead, people talked to each other, listened to songs via the radio, and opened a window when it turned warm.
Of course, you'd also want to open a window of this 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS each time you awaken its 402ci (6.6L) big-block V8, with its thunderous roar under full throttle. The 1972 Chevelle SS was rated at 270hp net, which refers to power at the wheels. Calculating backward, the actual power output of the engine at the crank must have been nearer 350hp. A 700R4 automatic transmission sends drive to the rear wheels, allowing you to exert maximum control over how much rubber is laid with each takeoff.
The 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, also known as the Chevrolet Malibu, was marketed as “America’s most popular midsize car” in 1969. The silhouette of the second generation Chevelle was designed with a long-hood/short deck shape with a high rear-quarter kick-up, making it easily the most fabulous Chevelle out of all the other generations. The semi-fastback and flowing roofline design was mostly influenced by the legendary Camaro. This Super Sport model boasts the 396ci V8 engine that has recently received maintenance as reported by the current owner. Take one look and no doubt this Chevrolet Chevelle has been meticulously taken care of by its current owner, and is for sale in Bakersfield, California.
The Chevrolet Chevelle SS is one of those muscle cars that can literally put hairs on your chest. It’s a special car in any form — be that a painstakingly original example, a meticulously restored car, or something like our featured build: an all-out exercise made to fulfill the dreams of restomod fans around the country. Our featured 1967 Chevy Chevelle SS Convertible doesn’t just look the part. It features a 6.2L supercharged V8 LS3 crate motor that reportedly puts out 590 hp with a few choice modifications. Evidently, this car isn’t for the faint-hearted. But it’s also an exercise in getting everything right, as you’ll see as you read on.
As auto buyers started to look away from large, full-sized cars, Chevy started to increase their midsize offerings. One of these was the Chevelle, which debuted for the 1963 model year. The Chevelle was intended to compete against the Ford Fairlane which came out a year earlier. To ensure that Chevy recaptured the midsize market, the company offered the Chevelle in many body styles. These included a two-door hardtop, coupe, convertible, station wagon or sedan, a four-door sedan, hardtop or station wagon, and even the famous coupe utility, or ute. The top trim of the Chevelle was known as the Malibu. That makes this 1964 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Malibu one of the most upscale variants of the series, and this 75,444-mile two-door coupe is up for grabs right now. What’s even more appealing to collectors is that it’s got a host of original parts and elements.
One of the most popular nameplates to come from the Bowtie brand, the Chevrolet Delray debuted for the 1950 model year, as the automaker’s flagship full-size offering. It would run for thirty years, and eight generations. The nameplate wasn’t only seen in the United States, but saw prominence in Canada and Australia too. Of course, the most desirable of the Delrays are the earlier ones, particularly those from the fifties. That makes this 1958 Chevrolet Delray 2-Door Sedan an excellent classic car to experience what American motoring from was like.
Chevy released the third-generation (or C3) Corvette in 1968, and the public lost their minds. Here was a car that was basically 80% concept, its lines lifted straight from Larry Shinoda’s Mako Shark II of 1965. Interestingly, the C3 Corvette was released in Hot Wheels form a few weeks before its official release by GM – in a GM-authorized move with Mattel, owners of the Hot Wheels brand. That’s why getting your hands on this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is a smart move since less than 29,000 units were made that year. This car comes to you from Florida with a fully rebuilt engine and is reportedly an example with all numbers matching.
With its bold styling and raw performance, the Chevrolet Camaro 2SS Manual is a true icon of the modern muscle car age. Harking from a long lineage of V8-powered legends, this 2014 Camaro SS is equipped with a host of performance upgrades, making it a potent yet comfortable daily driver.

Late 50s Chevys and mid 60s Cadillacs have always been popular candidates for restomod projects. However, not all of them are tastefully done like this fully restored 1965 Cadillac de Ville convertible restomod. 1965 was the first model year for the 3rd generation De Ville. It retained the same wheelbase as its predecessor, but the frame was a new perimeter frame (rather than the old X frame). The horizontal headlamp arrangement that had been standard since the late 50s was dropped in favor of a vertical arrangement, which also resulted in a wider grille. Gone were the softer lines of the old car, replaced by a sharper, more boxy design. The tailfins that had started shrinking since 1960 were now lower and slanted slightly downwards rather than slightly upwards. The new straight lines in its design make this car just as good looking with the top down as it does with the top up.
