1972 Chevelle SS Real SS Hard Part Chassis Done Easy Finish Must Sell or Trade?
1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Description
This is an excellent deal for the right buyer. The vehicle is a 1972 Chevelle real SS with accompanying buildsheet, and original sale paperwork. It is a factory A/C, red with black stripes, no vinyl roof, black interior vehicle. A great list of desirable options. Mileage is at 39,069 and is believed to be actual although exempted.
Was built to be a true reliable, capable, daily driver, the chassis labor and parts list alone should show this. A coin that needs polishing, instead of the common pig with lipstick.
Car was within a week of completion(wasn't going to paint it), when the "rebuilt" motor that came with the car, ate a ring the third test start, and began blowing smoke out of the passenger side pipe.
I have a home issue that needs handling, so I do not have the time or resources to slap a new crate motor in. Just grab another new one from a GM dealer for $1600 and call it a day, or put a race motor in it. Either way you will own a real SS and it will hold the value. I finished all the little things that were left to do to get it together, and putting it up for sale now.
*Edit 12/22/18 If the car does not sell by the new year, I will most likely be putting in a new motor from a different builder. Please take this into consideration if you are wanting the car for around the current sale price. It will not simply just keep going lower, and will go up after the install. Thank you.
I am open to truck plus cash trades, just let me know what you have.
Easily $30k invested without the motor in hundreds of hours of labor and parts. What I’m asking is what I want for it, I could part it out for this price. Good buy for someone to drop in a crate motor or ring job, paint, and drive year round air-conditioned. That is it really. The pictures will definitely show the amount of money, time, care, and attention to detail that went into this car, and I have hundreds more. Obviously car is being sold as is where is. Car runs and drives, but not strong. I have a clear title in my name, the car is currently registered, and insured.
I included a list of services, and parts that have been put into this vehicle. I hope this goes to someone that truly appreciates the car. Thank you for looking.
If you have zero feedback please contact me before buying.
