For sale in our Chicago showroom is a unique 1972 Chevrolet
Chevelle SS. Of course there is no argument that the second
generation Chevelle's are in great demand and for a very good
reason, they are some of the best looking and most iconic muscle
cars out there. This one is special for a number of reasons but let
us start with the provenance! This vehicle is not only equipped
with what is believed to be the numbers matching 350 Cubic Inch
Chevrolet small-block but also is documented with the original
build sheet! This car was built in Van Nuys California and
delivered to Empire Chevrolet in Novato California and that's where
this beauty has stayed until recently. Thanks to the climate in
California this car still has the original sheet metal that was
stamped at the Van Nuys plant 44+ years ago and everything fits
fantastic. These cars come to market often but having one that has
survived in the California sunshine for all of this time is rather
remarkable. The interior of this SS has been restored back to its
original luster and comfort and the underside, floors and under the
doors are truly remarkable. The engine has been rebuilt and
balanced and sounds fantastic. There is no mistaking that sound of
a correct running 350 and this one just sings. Upgrades include a
Demon carburetor, Edelbrock intake, HEI ignition and coated headers
running back to a custom X exhaust system. The transmission has
also been rebuilt with a shift kit for precise up-shifting and
features new 4:11 gears and new shocks. If you dream has been to
have an SS that will stand out in the crowd and has the
documentation and history to go along this is your chance. Options
include: AM/FM Radio, Leather Interior, Power Brakes, Rally Wheels,
Seat Belts, Radial Tires, and what is believed to be the
numbers-matching engine and transmission. Located in our Chicago
showroom this 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS can be seen including an
