This Chevrolet Chevelle got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu coupe was first delivered to West York Chevrolet in Toronto, Ontario and it reportedly underwent a refurbishment before its recent acquisition by the selling dealer. It is finished in Forest Green Metallic over black vinyl and powered by a 396ci Turbo Jet V8 mated to a three-speed Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission and a Positraction differential. Additional equipment includes a cowl-induction hood, 15″ Magnum 500 wheels, the F41 performance suspension package, power-assisted steering and brakes, front disc brakes, air conditioning, a Flowmaster exhaust system, and a Delco push-button AM/FM radio. An oil change was performed in anticipation of the sale. This Chevelle Malibu SS is now offered in Canada with GM of Canada Documentation and Ontario registration.
