Notes/Caveats:
(1) The total production according to the
reported last VIN of each assembly plant
totals 660,012 and does not match figures above. The 633,944 units shown
here include the Monte Carlo (not built in Canada) as well as 45,923
imported from Canada for inclusion in U.S. production figures. If one
subtracts the reported 71,980 Chevelles built in Oshawa (with Canadian
VIN's), that leaves 588,032 VIN's reported. This figure is still 45,912
units short of the figures on this page.
(2) There were 53,599 Malibu/Custom El Camino series were equipped with
RPO Z25 SS396 option and 8,773 were ordered with RPO Z15 SS454 option.
Breakdown of LS5 to LS6 engines in the 8,773 Z15 quantity is
4,298 LS5s and
4,475 LS6s.
(3) There were 3,823 Monte Carlos were equipped with RPO Z20 SS454 option.
(4) n/a indicates the series/model was not available with that engine
type.
(5) Only certain series/models were listed as being imported from Canada.
Where there is no import figure, that series/model was not imported.
(6) Of the 25,938 V8 Malibu Sport Coupes imported from Canada, 3,306
were equipped with Z25 SS 396 Equipment option and 299 with Z25 SS 454
Equipment. Canada also imported from the U.S. 231 Malibu Sport Coupes
and 329 13680 El Caminos. Some of those imported into Canada were LS6
optioned since Canada built no LS6 Chevelles.
(7) It is suspected that Arlington, Atlanta, and Flint did not build
convertibles and possibly neither Atlanta nor Flint built any
station wagons in 1970; it is known that Atlington did build station
wagons.
* The El Camino is a body style and not a series. It's unknown if the 329 (by GM of Canada's own records) exported to Canada are included in the GM reported total of 40,728 so the 329 figure is not included in the total here.
** Monte Carlos were not built at Atlanta or Kansas City, only Baltimore, Flint, and Van Nuys.
