Description of 1972 Chevrolet Other Custom |
BE THE TALK OF ANY CAR SHOW WITH THIS THING! I bought this ride about a year and a half ago. I brought it to a friends shop to have the rear suspension set up. but he never got around to it (busy shop). Now. I just brought it home. but I need to sell it to fund my other project. The car was customized with a REAR MOUNTED 500 Caddy motor and transmission. The engine runs great. When I picked it up from the shop. the flexplate is rubbing on something now. so there is a noise from under the car. It did not do that when I dropped it off there a while back. No knocks or smoking. The transmission works good. The tires are dry and should be replaced but hold air. The front tires are 185/60R14. I have a replacement pair for the rear of the car. and I may be able to provide a pair for the front. but no promises. Now. the car runs and moves under its' own power. but the rear suspension needs work. The way it is set up will not allow it to be driven. as the lower control arms have worn bushings causing excessive camber. The lower arms were custom made and I dont know what bushings will fit. I was actually going to replace them with Heim joints and aluminum adjustable trailing arms to fix the alignment issue. and make the alignment adjustable (about $60 in parts if you shop around). The body also shows its age. and could use some rust repair. Some prior bodywork is starting to show through on the bottom of the fenders. For some reason the brake pedal is also real low. and the car cannot be driven that way. It will run and move to put it on a car carrier or trailer. Anyway. my lack of time. and my other project. are forcing me to move on. Just want my investment back. If I do purchase the parts to replace the lower control arms (I plan on doing so in the next few days if I have time). I will include them with the car.
