About
the
Chevelle:
Part
of
the
General
Motors
A-Body
platform,
the
Chevelle
was
one
of
Chevrolet's
most
successful
nameplates.
Body
styles
include
coupes,
sedans,
convertibles
and
station
wagons.
Super
Sport
versions
were
produced
through
the
1973
model
year.
Ford
released
the
mid-sized
Fairlane
in
1963,
to
which
Chevrolet
responded
with
the
1964
Chevelle
based
on
a
new
A
platform
design.
Riding
on
a
115-inch
wheelbase,
the
new
Chevelle
was
similar
in
size,
simplicity,
and
concept
to
the
standard-sized
1955-1957
Chevrolet
models.
The
Chevelle
was
the
U.S.
auto
industry's
only
all-new
car
for
1964
and
was
positioned
to
fill
the
gap
between
the
small
Chevy
II
and
the
full-sized
Chevrolet
models.
Introduced
in
August
1963
by
\"Bunkie\"
Knudsen,
the
Chevelle
filled
the
gap
for
Chevrolet
with
sales
of
338,286
for
the
year.
Originally
conceived
as
an
upsizing
of
the
Chevy
II
with
a
unibody
platform
which
originated
with
the
XP-726
program,
GM's
\"senior
compact\"
A-platform
used
a
body-on-frame
construction
using
a
suspension
setup
similar
to
its
full
sized
automobiles
with
a
4
link
rear
suspension.
The
Chevelle
Super
Sport,
or
SS
represented
Chevrolet's
entry
into
the
muscle
car
battle.
Early
1964
and
1965
Chevelle's
had
a
Malibu
SS
badge
on
the
rear
quarter
panel.
The
second
generation
Chevelle
was
launched
in
1968
and
adopted
a
long-hood/short-deck
profile
with
a
high
rear-quarter
\"kick-up\"
Hardtop
coupes
featured
a
semi-fastback
and
a
flowing
roofline.
For
1970
Sheetmetal
revisions
gave
the
bodies
a
more
squared-up
stance
following
the
coke
bottle
styling,
and
interiors
were
also
redesigned.
The
1970
Chevelle
shared
many
sheet
metal
body
parts
with
the
1970
Buick
Skylark
GSX,
both
are
GM
automobiles
and
have
interchangeable
sheet
metal.
They
are
also
the
only
two
muscle
cars
to
share
the
same
roofline.
The
1970
Chevelle
came
in
Sport
Coupe,
Sport
Sedan,
convertible,
four-door
sedan,
a
couple
of
wagons,
and
coupe
utility
(the
El
Camino)
body
styles.
The
Malibu
sport
coupe,
Malibu
convertible
and
El
Camino
pickup
were
available
with
a
choice
of
one
of
2
SS
options;
RPO
Z25
with
the
SS
396
(402
cid)
engine
and
RPO
Z15
with
the
new
454
cid
engine.
The
base
model
was
now
simply
called
Chevelle
in
lieu
of
the
former
base
300
Deluxe,
and
was
only
available
as
a
Sport
Coupe
or
four-door
sedan.
New
options
included
power
door
locks
and
a
stalk-mounted
wiper
control.
Production
was
expanded
to
the
GM
Arlington
Assembly
plant
in
Arlington,
Texas
(where
the
Chevelle
was
assembled
with
its
corporate
siblings
in
this
case
the
Oldsmobile
Cutlass).
The
SS
396
Chevelle
included
a
350
horsepower
Turbo-Jet
396
V8,
special
suspension,
\"power
dome\"
hood,
black-accented
grille,
resilient
rear-bumper
insert,
and
wide-oval
tires
on
sport
wheels.
