Vehicle Description
This 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 LS5 is a rare Canadian-market
muscle car that packs a serious punch. The Cream Yellow exterior is
a knockout, complemented by bold black SS stripes that run the
length of the body. Factory 15-inch painted steel mag wheels with
trim rings fill the wheel wells, wrapped in beefy 245/60R15
BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires. The black vinyl top adds a touch of
class, while factory hood pins and cables give it that unmistakable
muscle car look. This Chevelle's body lines are arrow-straight,
with good panel gaps throughout.
Step inside, and you're transported back to 1972. The all-black
interior is a time capsule, looking fresh off the showroom floor.
Bucket seats wrapped in vinyl offer comfort and style, while the
factory console houses the Hurst shifter for the 4-speed manual
transmission. The dash features factory gauges, including a
tachometer, and an AM/FM radio provides the tunes. This interior
shows virtually no wear, preserving the authentic muscle car
experience.
Under the hood, this Chevelle flexes its muscles with a
numbers-matching 454 LS5 V8 engine. This powerplant was rebuilt
circa 1994 to 365 hp specs, giving it even more grunt than its
original 270 hp rating. It's fed by a Rochester Quadrajet 4-barrel
carburetor and breathes through a dual exhaust system with
Flowmaster mufflers and glasspacks. Power is sent to a 12-bolt rear
end with 3.31 gears and a Positraction differential through a
Muncie M22 "Rock Crusher" 4-speed manual transmission. The
suspension features boxed lower control arms in the rear, while
power steering and power brakes ensure this muscle car is easy to
handle.
