Here for your consideration is our 1972 CHEVELLE SS 350 CONVERTIBLE. YES, TS A REAL SS MATCHING NUMBERS CAR! I have the ORIGINAL Protect-O-Plate but I do NOT have the window sticker. I haven't torn the car apart to find the build sheet. It may or may not be there.REASON WE ARE SELLING: We have WAY too many cars (14) - and need to "Thin the Herd"The Original Protect-O-Plate Indicates the Following:VIN Number: 1D67J2R562552Engine Code: TO325CKD - Tonawanda Engine, uild Date -March 25, 972, 350 V8 175 H.P., br>4 Barrel Engine with 350 Auto.Trans.Axle Code: CCH0811 - 2.73 Posi Rear EndCarb Code: C - Carter 4 bbl Transmission Code: Y2C18 - 350 Turbo Hydramatic, uilt March 18, 972Original Owner: Name Deleted for Privacy of Orig. Owner, oodruff, outh CarolinaPurchase Date: May 1, 972This car is a MATCHING NUMBERS 350 SS with Automatic Transmission. This car has been well kept and was repainted a number of years ago (I was told 5 years ago, ut who knows.). The car shows well and is EXCELLENT "Driver Quality". This car gets a ZILLION compliments and "Thumbs Up" every time its driven. You will NOT be anonymous driving this car. It really draws attention! Drive it the way it is and enjoy - or restore it for investment. IMPORTANT NOTE: As you view this car you'll note that is NOT a show car. Before you rip it apart with negative criticism, lease know that I've purposely left it in its present condition to enable me to offer it at a MUCH lower price and make it more affordable to a broader audience. Rest assured - this car is NO junker. Surprisingly a number of people have asked me I restored the car myself, r was it original. Its TRULY a GREAT LOOKING CAR - but It needs a new top and a good measure of detailing to bring it up to where is should be. When I bought this car I was planning on installing a whole bunch of options like Power Windows, ower Trunk Release, irestone Wide Ovals, nd every other option I could get my hands on. I was even planning on removing the engine to highly detail the engine bay, he engine, nd the suspension. Had I accomplished all of the above, would need to add thousands of extra dollars to the price of this car to get my money back out of it. It made better sense to me to sell it as it is - to enable a broader group of potential buyers the chance to afford a car like this.EXTERIOR: Factory Correct GM Code 65 Flame Orange (this is the original color of this car) Base Coat/Clear Coat with White D-88 SS Sport Stripes. Mostly Shines like a mirror - Body is VERY solid in very decent shape - No dents, ut has a few small chips and paint anamolies. - NOT flawless perfect. Bottom line is - you can surely drive this car and be proud to be seen in it - but its NOT a "show" car. White convertible top needs replaced. Sadly the top has those common horizontal side stress tears between back window and side window. If it wasn't for that - the top would be perfectly fine for a long while. The Power Top motor works Great. Factory SS wheels are nice. Trunk is very clean. Floor pan, runk pan and quarter panels are very nice. Exhaust system is original style and is in fine shape with correct SS exhaust tips. Has B.F. Goodrich T/A's which have plenty of tread on them. INTERIOR: Very decent condition. White A-52 Bench seat interior with column shift automatic. Original dash in excellent condition. A/C vents and plastic chrome trim has faded. Car has full SS instrument gauges. Former owner opted to install aftermarket gauge cluster below the dash to benefit from receiving more info like Oil Pressure which is not shown on the original gauges. This was on my list to restore to original. Car has the Original SS sport wheel. Odometer reads 87,000 which I was told is original mileage - but can't prove it. Door panels were newly replaced when I bought the car. Carpet is original but a bit sun bleached. Front seat belts are white which is not correct. The black originals are in a box in the trunk. It was that way when I bought it. The Convertible Top motor works with no problems. DRIVETRAIN: Original Matching Numbers 350 Engine and really runs GREAT. Transmission shifts perfectly fine. Car steers straight and true. I've driven the car for hours in 100 degree heat and it has no problems. This SS is equipped with a brand new CORRECT rebuilt Carter 4 barrel carburetor. Ieven managed to acquire one with the correct date code range. The Protect-O-Plate stipulates that the car had a Carter Carb and not a Rochester. Therefore I tracked down a Carter Carb and replaced the Edelbrock which had no business being there. Car has the Factory Cruise Control Option which is presently disconnected. Not sure if it will work or not when is reconnected. Its a RARE option worth keeping. Under the hood is largely untouched. It even has a number of the correct tower clamps still in use. Frankly, t doesn't look like the engine has ever been out of the car. It runs great and doesn't smoke, o I figure - "If its not broke, on't fix it." Engine compartment, rivetrain, nd suspension shows the typical dirt and wear from semi regular use. Everything is solid and no rust - but its not pretty.This car is equipped with Factory Air Conditioning. The system the original R-12 system. The compressor spins when you turn it on. However, t doesn't blow cold air. Some seals are probably gone; and/or the system needs to be recharged. I haven't messed with it beyond that.I have tried to be forthright and as detailed as possible to enable you to see the true condition of this vehicle. I don't like complaints and I'm sure you don't like surprises.See the NADA Guide for current value. I have priced the car WAY below what I feel it is worth. I have factored in all imperfections and wear into my price. It is what it is. The pictures speak for themselves. Its not a show car but its also not priced like a show car either. ($50,000 or above as shown on NADA)Bottom line - this is a VERY NICE CAR that is NICELY EQUIPPED, RIGINAL MATCHING NUMBERS SS CONVERTIBLE for an affordable price.FACTORY OPTIONS:• AU3 - Power Door Locks• A01 - Soft Ray Tinted Glass• A52 - Bench Seat• C06 - Power Convertible Top• C60 Four Season Air Conditioning• D33 - Remote Sport Side Mirror• D34 - Passenger Visor Vanity Mirror• D88 - Sport Stripes -White• F41 - Front & Rear Sport Suspension• G80 - Positraction Rear• J50 - Power Brakes• JL2 - Front Disc Brakes• K79 - 42 Amp H.D.
