The Wait is Over: NEW 2024 Chevrolet Chevelle 70/SS Takes the Spotlight 

Good luck with that!

Ha ha, best of luck with that!

The only thing more annoying than these stupid AI narrated videos, is the AI GENERATED videos! Absolutely annoying watching a ridiculous video telling me in broken English, about a new car while showing me clips of another car. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

Exactly

@@davegerrard6857You can find them all over the place

100% and they were built 10 times better. 165K is a joke too.

​@@typhoonjenkins8330TOTALLY AGREE!!

Yep! The 1970 Chevelle was way sexy!

Absolutely CORRECT my Friend !

you can still have a custom flame job on that casket..

But how fast will that casket go and what is it's horsepower?

How fast it will go is going to depend on the condition of the underground roadways and the horsepower just keeps building as more ponies just keep coming!@@scottcoulter4769

If you die in California, it will need to be a EV.😶

nonsense- nobody is going to take your ICE vehicle away from you@@MrMike-jx3gw

Force, more like beg...

I drive mine daily without if telling myself not too🤣

I got my 69 SS in 78... I was 17! I Still have it ❤

Yup. Sounds like some third world moron bringing their trash culture to America. It’s such an insult to muscle cars especially.

Heard that, Matt. I’d rather read screen text than listen to the robot butcher it’s vocal attempts. They can also dump that background music as well (might as well throw that in while I’m complaining).

@@mightyluvand the channel will give you a heart for criticizing. Lol. These channels are ridiculous.

@@a-a-ron4679you’re right; that clickbait got me again.

No question! "Cah-MARR-OH", "Trans'em"... seriously?

The old lines are more elegant

Totally agree. The only classic remake that does justice is the Mustang. It just looks right. Everything else to me just look like a ‘free’ cardboard cutout muscle car that would be on the back of Kelloggs Frosted Flakes back in the 70’s!😂

You just cannot beat the looks of the old muscle cars.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing it needs a chrome bumper. The front end doesn't look like a chevelle and I think chrome bumpers would go a long way to toward making it look like a chevelle.

Absolutely agree. Not impressed with this one. I had a '71 SS and once I started watching this immediately was disappointed.

A good friend of mine had one in high school. We used to go to lunch in hers and we thought we were something. Lol gorgeous cars.!!

You are a very smart, and Good Son ! Please stay that way! 😊

@@SPenny-my4we I am a daughter but thank you :)

ram-air IV

Smart move.

I’ll keep my ‘71, maybe this will increase the price😂😂

... it's a no-brainer - a new rendition will depreciate faster than bidens mind has 🤣

ROFLMAO! People who can afford a REAL 70 LS6 Chevelle don't try to impress a bunch of clowns on RU-vid!

lol too funny @@nemesisxrox6773

Hello brother. I'm 61 and bought a 68 firebird convertible when i was 16, from my cousin, the motor, 350 big block was swapped to a 69 GTO 400. I was a kid in Cold Lake Alberta. 308"s in the rear end ( high way gears ). I was doing 150 mph as I passed Mitch Emery in his AMX 400. My dad found out I had my sister in the car and I've never heard him so angry with me. Cheers from Cold Lake.

I have a 1966 True 138 Chevelle Super Sport sitting in my driveway right NOW ! Built small block 327 , Forged Steel Vette Crank, 4 bolt main 350 engine block , Forged 12:1 pistons , Ported Heads, Comp cam ,750cfm carb, aluminum intake, Headers, 11 inch clutch , Lakewood Blow Proof bell housing, M-21 Muncie 4 speed trans , 12 bolt posi , pulls both front tires off the ground in first gear , Screams to the moon at 11,000rpm before the valves start to float , Runs 5.5sec@96mph in the 1/8 mile 2004 year Drag Strip is shorter and 660 feet , Not quite sure the actual length but it's called 1/8 mile . But what a blast it is to drive I'm pushing in the 600hp range No , the big block 396 is long gone !

Bet you wish you still had it

@@FrankGreenway, the big block 396 ? Why ? The small block 327 revs faster and higher than the 396 ever thought of doing and weighs 100 pounds lighter . The 396 was only rated at 350hp I'm making 600hp and I just enjoy that scream to the moon , So the answer to your question is NO !

I had a sweet 1970 mercury cyclone that was quick😊

needs a restomod- i love that GM 3800 series II with the decked block. thats a motor just made for swaps.

Exactly what I kept and restored. Still a fun car to drive.

This Vietnam veteran had me to clone a 70 Malibu to a SS..Money was no object.Turned out to be an awesome ride.He passed away not long after I finished.Wish I would have bought it from his son.Who could nor give a crap about it.70 is the best model.IMO

Yes! Totally agree👍

My dad bought his 1970 Mustang in 1970 for $2900 out the door. It’s still sits in his garage needing some TLC.

"... wish I had kept it." If I had a penny for everyone who ever said that about their car, I could buy a new SS454-70, no problem. lol

I have a 72 Chevelle and took pictures of it at the Lipscomb Chevy dealership in Burk.

My brother lived in Burkburnett he was employed at a GM plant somewhere and now he lives in Wichita Falls Texas.

Jealous guy Fl

exactly.

Ya for the cost, you could get a real one for less, and less chips and all the tek crap that the new one has is just crap. I always say, stay old school it will last longer, get the old school one.

Ok, a Firebird from a Camaro, maybe. But a Chevelle from a Camaro? Better to buy an original.

I visited the web site and prices start at…..$165,000.00

Good . I don't want to drive my Chevelle and see one on every corner.

After I got out of the military I actually bought a 70 SS 454LS6 Chevelle from a used car lot for $1750. It was 9 years old and only had 65,000 miles on it. It had the fully functional cowel induction hood with the butterfly. It was all original Cortez silver with the black stripes and a black vinyl top and a turbo 400 tranny. I had it repainted to the original color and stripes. It definitely was a badass. I'm still hating myself for selling it after I got married in order to get a truck. 😪😪😪 What a huge mistake.

It may be priced at 165k but in the end it will be much more

@@robertrussell5948 Yep, I know the feeling in selling my 70 Chevelle SS396.

70s looked a little boxy when released Although I was used to my uncle's 69'ss He ordered wheels all the same size But the morons sent a smaller size for the front Nice 69 has my vote And Cuda over challenger What do you think 🤔 😏 👀 😉 🙂

@@robertrussell5948I would like to know what would you drive nowadays

Totally agree

Agree. this is what happens when instead of GM designing and building a new Chevelle, a customizing company fits a body onto a Camaro. Adjustments have to be made. It is "Bringing back the Chevelle" in the loosest of terms.

They failed.

I agree. the New Camaros and Challengers look "Cartoonish" with all the plastic and fiberglass. Especially the Bumpers...i like Chrome.

Agree. Even with the angles on the front end it still looks blocky and thick and the painted bumper makes it look even worse.

Stop making the new versions of old classics look stupid/ugly. Make them look the same way they did in 1970. That's why people are willing to pay big bucks for them now.

​@marblox9300 that's my thoughts about the Challenger. The '70 Challenger was a beautiful car. The new one not so much. That's just my opinion, though. This car is just a barely reskinned Camaro.

Good, you can’t afford it anyways kid.

@@_DB.COOPERhow could you possibly know that?

@@edx21x I know him personally. You see kid, it’s not what you don’t know that gets you in trouble, it’s what you know for certain that’s just not true.

I agree with that or have the option to put a carbureted engine in there too if people want

@@arcticwolf8150 yes, a fully customizable car, except for the shell

And minus the computers that are making all cars disposable.

Sadly they cant due to safety regulations

You would think they would do it, its so simple but they are just to smart .... and have to figure a way for that 160k price tag...

You got to have close to 1000hp or over to win a race on the track these days 😅

I bet you do. Those were such great cars. Very practical as a daily driver and grocery getter.. Large enough to be comfortable on long trips with a lot of luggage. Powerful enough to have a lot of fun. I had a 1972 Olds Cutlass S. Great car.

@@orwellknew9112 wish they would just bring back the classic replicas, that are modernized with fuel injection Led instrument panels 😅 I hate the fact that they try to reinvent the classic's. The modern GTO makes me want to throw up 🤮

I had a '69 SS 396 that was body off restored back in 1988... man do miss it... marina blue, black int. Hurst 4 speed Muncie M21 with posi... I got a lot of attention at 16 from the popo 🫠

I love my 67 Camaro...but i much prefer to drive my skyline, or even the wife's RX8. The body roll, stiffness, and rawness doesn't feel as nice as it did when i was 22 😂

I got my 69 Z/28 out yesterday and drove around town. Washed her, filled the tank, and met my Wife for lunch. The looks you get. The "Thumbs up". The conversations when you stop somewhere. Priceless.

Yup definitely

What made them cool is they were affordable.

They are badly overpriced now though.

I had a buddie In Highschool He had a 71 SS with a 454.Had AC too.That was one bad ass car.He actually broke the chassis under the passenger seat from doing to many burnouts showing off.It had the intake with a sideways sitting holley on it.Candy Apple Red with white stripes.White interior.Dumb ass got married and sold it cheap.I love to give him a hard time about it. His marriage didn't last 5 years .

@@spudnickjquesanar1678 The SS would have last forever!😂🤘🙏🏻

That would be sweet but if I was in the market, I would buy a 1965 Pontiac GTO with the 389 tri-power V8, 4-spd. trans, and the 3.73 gears. If that wasn't quite enough car, I'd upgrade that engine to a 421 or 428 Pontiac engine. 😈

...or you could get brodix or dart heads for the 389 and build a REAL motor@@edb3877

So true. I m a chevy fan also, and I cant say like the new camaros at all

@@buckmclean8391 I don't like them either. They look ok from the front or back but there is too much side metal and the roof line is too low. Sucks trying to see behind you.

Too bad it's a Dodge and heavy as hell.

I will say though, Chevy hit a home run with the current Camaro, vision issues aside. The chassis and steering feel are phenomenal. You could trick me into thinking I was driving a German sports car. I constantly rent cars for work, and I get Challenger R/T’s, Mustang GT’s, and Camaro V6’s. While the engine isn’t as nice as the V8’s in the Mustang or Challenger, the chassis makes both of those cars feel like floating 1970’s Crown Vic.

To me the Challenger looks like a duster with a facelift

Why not let everyone do what they want

It’s like the new Bronco that doesn’t even look like the old ones inspired it

Agreed, it reminds me of an old station wagon front end 👎👎

That is why I bought a 2018 because the goofy 2020 - 2023 front end flaps were almost universally disliked. I traded my 2020 RS for my current 18 SS with 13k.*I mean 13k on the odo.

Yep, it looks lousy.

It reminds me of the truckster in the Nat'l Lampoon movies' front end....

And stop making the new versions of old classics look stupid/ugly. Make them look the same way they did in 1970. That's why people are willing to pay big bucks for them now.

@@marblox9300 Imagine the exact look of the 1970-72 Chevelle with modern insides.

There was nothing wrong with the 1970s insides. Just a modern radio is all you would really want.

​@MS-ns2pj agreed. The new one looks terrible.

@@marblox9300 I’m thinking modern suspension, brakes, handling, fuel efficiency, amenities, etc.

GM not building them just some aftermarket dudes trying to live in the past...

@bultacowally ... and triple their $$$ invested in each one they sell off which will no sooner depreciate faster than bidens mind has. There's always an arse for every seat like one mans turd is anothers golden dream come true.

Makes sense, to me. ??? 😨😨😱😱😱 🥴🥴🥴

For that kind of money this car better be perfect. I saw the price on our re-issue mustang and the price was $200,000. Most people cannot afford to spend that kind of money.

Get a job!

@@_DB.COOPERGET FIVE JOBS ,🎉

For me, it was the 67 Chevelle SS. I remember the local dealer had one that was blue with a black interior and a 396/ 4speed. I fell in love, but was 17 at the time and couldn't afford one 😢.

Damn

Nah, her basic salary is $2.1 million. She has incentives that increase that amount for total compensation. GM did $169 BILLION (that's a B) in revenue last year. Anyone running a $169 Billion company deserves $29 million. They've increased revenue by leaps and bounds under her leadership.

So, become a CEO!

Let’s see if they get more money and a 4 day work week… oh their job is oh so hard. I guess if everyone were in a union… bread would be $20.09 a loaf Gas prob $39.00 a gallon etc etc etc

@@mysneakysnake how many cars GM has to make & sell just to cover the salary of its CEO . Not to mention the other executives .

Totally agree! 69 is by far my favorite year for the Chevelle. The look from the side of the car is perfect. The way the grill wraps around and slashes down gives it that shark mouth look and the way the quarter window (looks great rolled down!) comes to a point, fits this car so well. I also dig the interior too (in all black)

Agree to disagree about the 69 versus the 70 body style. Of course, I am no doubt biased as I owned a 70 for a few years. 😊

67 is the more boxy stlye

I completely agree, my first thought was that it was kinda blocky looking.Specially the front end.

I agree but the '69 Camaro is just over produced. Chevy might as well make some money and just make '69 Camaro's.

Now that got me chuckling! Kinda like a vehicle out of the movie Death Race 2000 or the remake years later!

Agreed. This isn't a "New Chevelle"... It's just a heavily made over Camaro

What is reliving your lost manhood worth?

@@jamesvandamme7786I don’t buy toys and at 54 I’m much better in that dept than most men. I give my money to those around me that need help. Like the car like better though what I do in life.

The new Chevelle is actually a Camero with a body kit.

@@mrBDeye I still like the originals best anyway

@@jamesvandamme7786 alot more than 2 failed marriages and losing 1/2 each time.

@@alsmith919 , all I remember is that he went to work for Coca Cola as a truck driver when we graduated. But, I, too, have often wondered if he still has that car.

If he got married, it's likely long gone...most people don't hang on to cars like that...once they start making a little money, they sell it for a car with better fuel economy & more modern conveniences... marriage will shorten a car like that's lifespan too... especially when kids start showing up...The longer it's been since high school, the less likely he is to have the car...

@@Road_Rash , I would imagine so. Like my high school Charger. None of us knew what they would be worth one day. You could buy them unbelievably cheap back then

I think that you need to track him down. We're all on the edge of our seats.

I still have my '68 El Camino that was my first car, but it no longer runs & is in need of a complete restoration, which will be started as soon as I'm done with my '69 C10, but I never had a wife telling me to sell it, or kids that I'm aware of, so it was easy for me to just park it & hang on to it until I could do something with it... but most people, especially back then, didn't see their vehicle as anything that was worth keeping... when they're common, who cares? It's just a car... but then later, when they become uncommon, it's always the same story, 'I used to have one of those. Wish I'd never sold it'... but now, 40 years later, I don't have to say that, because I still have mine... biggest problem is people have been trained by society to want new stuff all the time... don't restore that old beater, just buy a new one... so people tend to view vehicles as disposable...you don't have to look ol boy up on my account, I'm pretty sure I already know how that conversation will go...'Hey, you still have that red 454 Chevelle you had almost a half century ago?' him: 'Well, a couple years after highschool...'

There's a waiting list for people to pay $90,000 plus for a new pickup truck or a Vette so there will be no shortage of buyers for this car! The AVERAGE car payment is over $1,000 now!

it looks pretty good though, not as good as the original of course but they did a good job in my opinion.

@@burdman5620 How high are you? This thing looks like an offbrand matchbox car that made it's way into a hydraulic press

​@@burdman5620It's an abomination. I literally looks like pinewood derby car that wasn't shaped properly. I think a pontiac aztek looks better.

yall must be camaro owners @@joeschmoe6908

@@2015ChevyBigBlock That my 1969 RS SS Z28 that I own and built when I was 16 is a better car than yours will ever be, grandpa. This new "Chevelle" is an atrocity. I promise you without any regard I have driven more cars of this era that were all fully restored than you could ever dream of. I have been fortunate enough to be around 30+ brand new 1970 LS6's and even more 1st gen Camaros. Anything you can possibly think of in that latter part, 327's, 350's, 396's, and even 427's.... not just a COPO steel block also a ZL1 Aluminum block.. plus some big motor swaps. I daily drove a 502 Hugger Orange '69 when I was in highschool frequently. When the new generation Camaros came in stock at a local GM dealership I had to drive about 5 different promo 1st gens in to sit out for promotion for them (owner was a family friend). One of their salesmen tried to trade me for my car and I laughed... just like I would if you tried to trade me your "15 Z28 LS7". None of us were hating on the origin of the Chevelle, we were hating on the absolute ruined design of them in the same facet that they ruined the Camaro when it was brought back (mind you, your model is less atrocious than the initial 2009 series). If Mopar can figure out a way to make the Challenger an absolute badass beast that looks the part to it's roots, then what is GM's problem? I'm assuming I was 1 of the 2 members who you were referring to here, if not apologies for the long comment, but if so I'd say you can step off of your pedestal, sir.

That’s all it is. This page is bullshit just like the fake car in the video

1972 is the last year of this generation of the SS Chevelle

Yeah sorry but the 73 was a boat. So it was not a 73.

I owned a 1973 Vette L-48 190 HP 270 foot lbs torque. Yuck

The red shown was a '71. I had one of those. In '72 the front turn signals were a one-piece design instead of two and the grill was slightly less attractive.

@@PocketChangeInspector Thanks for info! Just knew it wasn't a '70 model. I'm a '57 model so my memory is not the greatest. :)

A 283 surely wasn't the original engine.

'center caps' and 'dog-dishes' are two different things.

😂

ROFLMAO Where did you get those numbers? A Z06 Vette or Caddy CTS-V aren't even close to your numbers! Even at $100,000, this car is a bargain, since it will probably run 11s of the showroom floor & has a top speed of 200mph & handles like a race car!

Thank you for reading my replies! Greatly appreciated! 👏 ❤️👍 I'm 65 & still dreaming of that car I never got...

Great craftsmanship?are you kidding?they slaughtered an American classic..

So they are trying to get rid of the Chevelle then the Camaro. What's next the Malibu. Why don't you all just bring back the Impala and the citation too. Shoot just declare bankruptcy...😢😮. I miss the Impala 😢. That was my family's car..a tradition. That sucks. Maybe I should switch to Ford..at least they still have the mustang.
