Vehicle Description
Marking the ultimate evolution of Joel Rosen's wicked Chevrolet
supercars, this 1972 Camaro received the Phase III treatment and,
as now offered, it benefits handsomely from a comprehensive
frame-off restoration including new NOS and OEM sheet metal to the
fenders, quarter panels, trunk pan and floor pan. Refinished in
striking Mulsanne Blue with the contrasting Motion Performance
stripe scheme in white, as per the original specification, this
awesome Camaro sports a new L88 fiberglass hood and springs, as per
the original design, including stainless steel hood retaining
pins.
The updated black bucket-seat interior features recently recovered
seats with new foam, springs and seatbelts, plus a new three-spoke
Chevrolet steering wheel, a new dash pad with rebuilt gauge
cluster, and a new center console with three-piece Stewart-Warner
accessory gauge package. Other restoration highlights include a new
headliner, new rubber gaskets and seals around doors, trunk and
T-tops, new windshield and rear glass, a new grille, new headlight
bezels, rechromed front and rear bumpers with guards, new wiper
arms and blades with a new wiper transmission arm and wiper motor,
and a new fuel tank and sending unit.
The mighty 454 CI V-8 engine was rebuilt to original
specifications, according to the Motion Performance build sheet.
Highlights include ported and polished cylinder heads, a Comp Cams
camshaft, updated cam bearings, pistons, valve seats, valve
springs, solid lifters, intake and exhaust valves, and a rebuilt
Holley carburetor. Spent combustion gases are removed via a new
2.5-inch Flowmaster exhaust system. The new Motion Performance
rocker covers were purchased directly from Motion Performance. The
TH400 automatic transmission was rebuilt to original
specifications, according to the Motion Performance build sheet,
and equipped with a Hole Shot torque converter and shift kit.
Underpinnings include new big-block front coil springs, new rear
leaf springs and Lakewood traction bars. Riding on a new set of
Cragar SS wheels mounting BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires, this muscle
car legend is documented by photos of the frame-off restoration,
Motion Performance build records and a Letter of Authenticity from
"Mr. Motion" Joel Rosen.
