While the second generation of the Chevelle is the one most muscle aficionados dream about when this badge is mentioned, the 1970 version arguably gets the most attention these days, not least thanks to the strong coke bottle appearance introduced for said model year. As such, when digital artist Dom Höst selected this Chevy as the base for a rendering, enthusiasts knew the stakes were sky-high.
This was never going to be a tame project, so, given the said context, the digital master decided to go all the way, coming up with a virtual build that might as well take on Pikes Peak.
Unapologetic. This has to be the ideal word for describing the downforce hardware fitted to this 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS. And it's worth noting that the styling of the aero pieces looks like something you'd expect to see on a modern car.
It all starts with the front apron, whose intakes are large enough to provide all the cooling the V8 under the hood might need.
Sitting closer to the asphalt, the machine now rides on wide multi-spoke wheels that pack generous black lips and hide behind meaty overfenders. Speaking of the latter, both the front and the rear hardware aim to channel the air for aero purposes.
The side exhaust tips are the only elements that stand out when checking out the side extensions, which have "race car" spelled all over them.
Nevertheless, the posterior makes for the most aero-aggressive side of the muscle car's transformation, albeit while sporting an uncomplicated design. We're looking at a wing that uses a swan neck mount, with this sitting at the same height as the roof. Then there's the diffuser, with its four gigantic fins.
And since all the aero in the world won't save you when things go south, the cabin is now adorned with a complex roll cage featuring a white finish.
