Many automotive magazines and muscle car reviews have often considered the 1970 Chevelle SS in general the all-American Muscle car. It was fast for the day, muscular looking and affordable and available to the masses. As far as the King of the muscle cars, there are a handful that would compete for that title. I grew up in So Cal where the car culture was huge. Most of us favored Camaro's, Mustang's or Chevelle's. Mopar's (especially the winged versions) were rare. I would say the all-American moniker is accurate, however, the title of King will always be up for debate. It took years before the legends were made and their subsequent prices and collectibility status have influenced that title.
