1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Description

It's hard to find a more desirable Chevy muscle car than a 1972 Chevelle convertible in full SS appearance. Of course when the paint looks this amazing, and there's a fresh 350 crate motor under the hood, then you really know you're looking at something special.Code 26 Mulsanne Blue is this car's original color, but when this drop top hits the sunlight you can instantly tell it has a shine that's better than what the factory could ever give. The deep metallic luster that tells you this was a professional respray, and the SS white stripes are painted so its beauty has a long lasting effect. All the right Super Sport pieces are in place for '72 including grille, badges, and clear front indicators. This would be the last year for the iconic cowl induction hood, and in combination with hood pins, it just competes this Chevelle's aggressive first impression. The only piece on the exterior that doesn't look straight from the factory are the Foose wheels, but no one is ever going to complain about these bright beacons of modern style.Black is always a beautiful choice for interiors on American muscle cars. This one looks especially good, which tells you there was a lot of care taken when the top was down. In fact, even the power folding roof has been recently replaced to ensure it continues watertight motoring when the sky turns gray. These might have been the midsize Chevys back in the day, but there is plenty of room for you to carry all your friends and family with the two rows of bench seats. Plus, everyone can even stay entertained with modern tunes thanks to the updated AM/FM/CD stereo. But a convertible like this is really about the driver. That's why you get the proper SS round gauge package, including factory tach, as well as a set of auxiliary readouts under the dash. This is starting to tell you that there might be something wicked under the hood.The engine bay looks great with all the polished components as well as the finned Edelbrock air cleaner and valve covers, but there's plenty of substance behind this flash. This is a 350 small-block crate motor with only 5,000 miles on it since new. It inhales deeply with an Edelbrock 600 CFM four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock intake, and the motor exhales with authority through coated headers that feed the Flowmaster Stage 2 dual exhaust. This combination of go-fast components really makes it a true muscle machine on the road, but that's not the full story. It's a power steering car with a three-speed automatic transmission. Add in the front disc brakes and a highway-friendly 2.73 rear axle, and this one is ideal for Saturday night intimidating or long-haul cruising.This is a great combination of vintage looks with modern reliable components added. We even have the factory buildsheet, owner's manual, and restoration receipts to back it all up. So you're looking at handsome, trouble-free cruiser with a strong pedigree. What's not to love?
