    GM came very close to offering these for 1970. Here’s a GM photo of a 1970 SS454. I speculate that these were cancelled fairly late and is why the SS454 photo in the 1970 brochure is a hub cap bench seat car with SS454 emblems on it. I think the below photo was intended for the brochure but had to do something different on short notice after the wheels were cancelled. Funny enough though they had an artist colour and retouch the photo with rally wheels and 71 SS trim for the 1971 brochure.

    I am actually planning on going with these wheels as well. Unfortunately I had already bought my rallys when I stumbled on this picture a while back.

  2. Here's the car getting loaded up and then at the body shop. The body was in outstanding condition but the body shop recommended media blasting it to make sure that there wasn't anything hidden underneath. If I had known better I would not have had it media blasted.. Reason being is that it brought me back to square one which takes 100's if not 1000's of hours to get out of.
