Vehicle Description
This is a split-bumper car that's a true Super Sport, and it even
has its original V8 still under the hood. So it's going to be
really hard to look at everything this 1972 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS
has to offer and not fall in love.
Second-generation Camaros have matured into true classics, but as
good as they all look, this one has something extra special to
stand out in any crowd. The modern clearcoat gives the silver an
extra luster. Plus, the black painted stripes help highlight the
upgraded cowl-induction hood and full-width rear spoiler. Chrome is
used sparingly, so areas like the iconic split front bumper, rocker
panels, and the well-contoured rear bumper all look exceptionally
nice. And those 15-inch Billet Specialties wheels are instant
attention-grabbers. But as much as we love the Rally Sport
package's large unobstructed grille that looks like it's out to
consume lesser cars, this one hides a secret. You might notice the
trim tag is absent a paint code, which suggests that this was a
special order vehicle. And that always wows even the purists.
The exterior stripes are a great intro to the black carpets, door
panels, dash, and bucket seats that await inside. GM designers
nailed it with the second-generation Camaro's interior with a
driver-oriented package that's still desirable in modern times.
Originality is main theme here with the gauges, heat/defrost
sliders, and the whole dash looking correct. But your favorite
original pieces are going to be how the correct NK4 sports steering
wheel feels in your left hand, and how your right one instantly
gravitates to the iconic horseshoe shifter.
Even more great originality is under the hood. This is a true
Camaro SS, and 1972 was the final year for it. In fact, by '73 the
emissions regulations would bring the power down, too. It's great
to see the original numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch motor still
under the hood today. And since this V8 is so significant, it's
great to have it preserved look on everything from the bold orange
block to the decal still on the factory air topper. Plus, the
Thrush dual exhaust means the V8 still has a great growl. Out on
the road, features like the three-speed automatic transmission,
power steering, front disc brakes, and BG Goodrich T/As combine for
a fine driving package that allows you to enjoy this special Camaro
to the fullest.
A final-year Camaro RS/SS with all the right iconic touches and a
great story to tell. That makes this an all-around stunner that you
don't want to miss. Call now!
