Description of 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 |
This is a genuine SS 454, verified right in the vin #! It was ground up restored about 5 years ago. Very desirable combination of colors and features. EXTERIOR: SS, yeah Super Sexy! All red, no vinyl top, black stripes, a lowered stance with some custom wheels make this a real looker. I just went all around the car and there's no signs of rust, I didn't find any bubbles or body work. The car is straight from. New full quarter panels, bottoms of each door are clean, fenders are all metal. It has an actual cowl induction hood with the flapper door and racing pins. The paint has a very glossy finish. The stripes are painted to the correct dimensions, they're smooth to the touch. Up front the grill, headlight bezels, bumper bumper guards, emblems have been replaced. On the sides the wheel well moldings, emblems, mirrors, door handles and the stainless trim around the windows have been replaced. In back the bumper, bumper guards and emblem were replaced. The door jambs are painted nicely, weather strips, sill plates and window seals were replaced. New windshield. It rolls on 18 inch Boss wheels, extra wide in the back with performance sneakers on them. INTERIOR: It features the SS gauge dash with round gauges, bucket seats and console. It has been completely redone. The seats are reupholstered, seat backs and chrome trim were replaced. Down on the floor it has new carpet, embroidered mats and Complete set of original GM seat belts. The side panels, armrests and window cranks have been replaced. Overhead the headliner, visors and mirror were replaced. The dome light works and shoulder belts are there. In front of me the dash pad, instrument panel, vents are new. It has factory tachometer, upgraded retro stereo. There's an upgraded Walnut steering wheel and a owner's manual in the glove box. The center console is in good original condition. ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The 454 motor runs strong, it has some performance upgrades including Edelbrock intake, chrome plated Holley carb with electric choke, HEI ignition and a set of headers. It runs cool with an upgraded aluminum radiator, the stock shroud and a new clutch fan. It features power steering and power brakes. Everything looks proper and complete- the wiring is run neatly, the squirters are hooked, it has hood insulation. It also has an Optima battery with a disconnect switch. Overall clean, painted nicely. TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Clean trunk floor, full quarter panels put on at it's factory seams. Under the trunk lid and the jamb are painted glossy. The decals, weatherstrip and trunk mat were replaced. There is a new car cover included. UNDERSIDE: Upgraded QA-1 performance suspension. In front it has fat tubular control arms, coil over gas shocks, Proforged tie rods, HD sway bar. In back it has solid upper and lower control arms, HD sway bar and adjustable coil over gas shocks. Great sounding exhaust with fat pipes and Flowmaster mufflers. Bottom of the motor is clean, fuel pump and high torque starter look fresh. It has a Muncie 4-speed and a 12 bolt 3.31 posi rear. Fuel tank, straps and sending unit were replaced. It has disc brakes in front, e-brake cables are hooked up. You know most the Chevelles out there that have SS emblems on them were not born that way. This is a rare opportunity to get one that was born a real 454. Aside from that, it's a sharp looking, nicely restored car that is great to drive. Shifting those gears with big block power at your foot is great. The improved suspension and brakes keeps it on the road real well!
