Vehicle Description
It's irresistible when you discover a full custom build that takes
an icon and gives it an upgraded V8, sports suspension, four-wheel
disc brakes, custom A/C interior, and sick metallic paint. That's
why this 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Tribute Restomod goes right to
the top of your wish list.
These coupes are all about distinction. After all, 1972 closed the
book on the awesome Chevelle hardtop coupe era. So this has all
your favorite classic SS pieces boldly done, like the cowl hood and
dual racing stripes. The Burnished Orange is a distinct way of
showing off this Chevelle. It's the kind of color and metallic
element that wasn't available in '72, and so it instantly signals
an upgraded coupe. The same goes for the tinted windows and HID
headlights. And the idea of vintage and custom come together nicely
on the classic American Racing Torq Thrusts wheels with a
large/modern 18-inch size.
All the dark elements of the exterior get you ready for the full
black interior. You can tell they made a solid investment in the
fresh seat upholstery, door panels, carpeting, headliner, dash pad,
and more. This has some terrific amenities, too, like cold-blowing
air conditioning, power steering, and there was a custom-built
center console with cup holders. There are provisions for a full
stereo system. It will need completing, but the trunk's custom
subwoofer enclosure w/Rockford Fosgate amp is a true centerpiece.
And this is a driver-ready package with everything from the classic
high-back bucket seat, to the modern Dakota Digital VHX full gauge
package with large speedo and tach.
Under the hood is the true centerpieces of the car, and you know it
the moment you see the tidy engine bay with an exterior-matching
block right in the middle. This is a more modern LQ4 6.0-liter V8,
but it has been given the full classic muscle car treatment. It
starts with a .030 bored over kit. It was further enhanced and
fortified with AFR aluminum heads, Comp Cams hydraulic roller
camshaft, Cloyes double roller timing chain, Speed Pro moly
stainless rings, hypereutectic pistons, 10.8:1 compression,
Edelbrock Victor Jr. high rise intake, and topped with a Quick Fuel
750 CFM four-barrel carburetor. You'll also spot the right
supporting components, like a serpentine belt system, MSD Ignition
w/8.5 mm plugs, and an aluminum radiator w/dual electric fans.
Hooker long tube headers add power while also adding to the nice
rumble of the Flowmaster dual exhaust. The motor build has less
than 7k miles on it, and so remains quite a potent powerplant. And
the three-speed automatic transmission has a 2500 stall to keep you
in the ideal powerband. The undercarriage photos show investments
in the full suspension, including tubular A-arms up front, boxed
trailing arms in the rear, sway bars front & rear, QA1 adjustable
coilovers, and SSBC four-wheel power disc brakes w/drilled &
slotted rotors.
There's a ton more details of the performance upgrades to go over,
so call for all the info. This has the right look, the right power,
and the right features all come together to deliver the right
