'70 Chevelle
Jim Hunt
Bakersfield, CA
We love hearing about eBay finds. One such example is Jim Hunt's true, ratified SS which came out of Scottsdale, Arizona. Jim went right to work and plugged in a 500hp 502ci big-block. He loaded up the engine with a Holley 850-cfm carburetor, Hedman headers, and Pertronix ignition. Power is sent through a Turbo 400 transmission to 3.73:1 gears out back. Underneath hangs a complete suspension from Hotchkis with Edelbrock shocks. His rollers of choice are Coddington wheels with Federal P225/55ZR17 front and P255/55ZR17 rear rubber. At the track, Hunt has gone as quick as bottom 12s at 118 mph!
