69 or 70?

I also like both years (wait...... i like ALL chevelles 64-72 ), but i would choose the 69 because it combines the best of both worlds, it was still before the redesign of 70 and still combines the older design, but has a nice mean look. Either way, you cant lose.

Re: 69 or 70?

In the age of muscle cars, the 69 just didn't offer the symbolism of the beefy 70 and even beefier 71 Chevelle. If you're looking for a sleeper or are just fond of the 69 body lines, to each his/her own.

Re: 69 or 70?

I like the feel of both my 1969 chevelle's. The SS has its feel of power and my Malibu has its own.

Re: 69 or 70?

i was shopping around for a 1970 chevelle when i wound up getting my RS, still want a 70 SS or SS clone at some point down the road. just love the car, like the lines better than the 69 personally. but thats just individual taste.

Re: 69 or 70?

the 69 looks a little more "elegant" maybe? the 70's body lines are a little more "blah" but thats what I like about it. Looks a little more ordinary, but with alot of power
