Vehicle Description
Chevelles are hot right now. There's just something about a Chevy
that can carry the family and also looks so cool with its sleek
hardtop design. So to find this 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle with a mean
green color combo and a performance-built stroker V8 to back it all
up might just be the hottest deal going.
Sequoia Green is a great 1970s color. The earthtone represents the
era well and makes it a distinctive classic today. Of course, it
helps that the period-correct color has been given a full
professional respray during the coupe's lifetime. That means the
deep green has a bright luster that can only come from modern paint
practices. Bodywork is quite nice, so the sunlight rolls off of
each panel evenly. Plus, there was a lot of attention paid to
getting those iconic black SS stripes correct. The intimidating
attitude is continued on the cowl induction hood, blacked out
grille, and all that correct SS badging. It was built before new
bumper laws so those big chrome kings fit much snugger to the body,
and the rear still houses the taillights in a very cool way. And of
course, genuine American Racing Torq Thrust wheels are an iconic
all on their own.
The interior gets the full green treatment, too, as the
factory-correct door panels, carpeting, bench seats, and dash are
all a coordinating color. Because so many of these Chevelles were
changed to black over the years, it's a true standout to have the
original green still boldly displayed today. While this was Chevy's
intermediate offering in the 1970s, today that means there's plenty
of room to carry up to five family members and friends with you on
any trip. But on a cool pillarless coupe like this, the driver is
always the most important. You know that the moment you slip behind
the factory dual-spoke wheel that gives you a clear view of the
large SunPro tach. This is a nice sign that there's something
special under the hood even before you twist the key and hear it
roar.
One look in the engine bay, and those Chevrolet performance valve
covers instantly let you know this is a muscular V8. It's a 383
cubic-inch stroker motor specially built by JD Motorsports. They
fortified and enhanced this V8 with go-fast goodies like an
Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer intake,
aluminum heads, MSD ignition, and Hedman long tube headers that
feed the thunderous dual exhaust. Plus, the stout TH350 three-speed
automatic transmission has been built with a 3500 RPM stall to keep
you in the optimal powerband. Out on the road, features like the
thick sway bark up front, power brakes, and BF Goodrich T/As at all
four corners are exactly the pieces you want for added control.
A speedy and distinct example of iconic American muscle. You can
really make other people green with envy over this green
Chevelle.... that is if you're quick enough to grab this deal. Call
