Owing to its fastback coupe profile and tout contours, the
timelessly-athletic stance of the 2nd-Generation Chevrolet Camaro
is legendary in every sense of the term. That word, "legendary",
especially applies to this car. It's a difficult task to accurately
put into words just how unique and special of a car that this
extremely rare, real-deal 1972 Chevrolet Camaro SS-396 really is.
One of only 970 ever built, whoever checked off the options list on
this absolute beast of a Chevy wasn't messing around. Additionally,
the 1972 model year was the last year of the SS-396, making this
specific '72 Camaro all that much cooler! Powered by a
numbers-matching, 396 C.I. behemoth of a V8 that breathes with the
help of an electronic fuel injection system, this '72 Camaro SS
really screams. Torque is stomped into the pavement through a TH400
3-speed automatic transmission, which shifts seamlessly as this
beast of a Camaro glides down the highway. The exterior's
low-slung, athletic bodylines are covered in a gorgeous, correct
"Flame Orange" metallic paintjob, which has an absolutely stunning
shine. That paint is complimented by a pair of black rally stripes,
which run the length of this Camaro's cowl hood and rear deck, and
they make sure that the Camaro in question sticks out from the
crowd. In addition, the floors, frame, trunk and jambs are all
original, rock-solid, and they're all in great shape! Opening this
Camaro's twin doors reveals a fantastic black vinyl interior,
complete with comfy patterned bucket seats that are perfect for
cruising as well as factory A/C to keep you comfortable.
Accompanying that black vinyl is the additional woodgrain interior
trim, which gives this SS a little bit of luxury flair! Options on
this beautiful '72 Camaro SS include power steering, power brakes,
front disc brakes, factory A/C, a cowl hood, front and rear
spoilers, a full center console, a "horseshoe" shifter, an
aftermarket AM/FM digital radio, "Dual-Sport" mirrors, a remote
driver's mirror, and a mean-sounding dual exhaust system. The car
rides on a correct set of 15" Chevrolet rally wheels over Cooper
Cobra RWL tires for a look that makes this Camaro seem as if it
drove right out of 1972! With a combination of a monster 396 V8,
dual exhausts, and a smooth-shifting automatic transmission, this
Camaro SS runs and drives like a dream. If you're in the market for
an extremely rare, highly collectible, and powerful muscle car that
checks all the right boxes, then this 1972 Chevrolet Camaro SS is
exactly what you're looking for. Believe us, you're not going to
want to let this one pass you by. After all, when are you going to
see another one?
