1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Restomod

Description

Sporting an eye-catching color, extreme power and an assemblage of top tier components, this 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle restomod is a rare find. It's only logged a handful of miles since its rebuild and would be an outstanding acquisition for the discerning muscle car enthusiast looking to make a strong, definitive statement.

The distinctive black cherry color w broad black stripes running the length of its hood suits this Chevelle perfectly, giving it a custom, era-appropriate appearance without going too far. With a great clearcoat sitting on top, it's got a deep shine that's contrasted nicely by the matte black front grille sporting a very clean "SS" emblem. Those stripes on the hood are no mere decals - they're painted on, with impressively sharp edges - and the smooth curvature of the cowl hood that's there to provide additional engine clearance also hints at the power that sits directly below. It's a well-aligned and finished looking car, with body panels that sit flush, doors that open and shut smoothly and nice clear glass surrounded by fresh looking seals. With no trim running the length of its sides, its distinctive shade has even more of an impact, adding to its aftermarket cache. The remaining chrome work is in fine shape, including front and rear bumpers that show no evidence of corrosion and sit table-straight.

There are all kinds of outstanding touches sitting inside the black interior. The high-backed vinyl front buckets are very comfortable, with heavy bolsters to provide all the support you'll need for more enthusiastic driving, while the bench seat in back retains its original configuration. Both are in great shape, showing little evidence of use at all. In between the buckets, a very well configured center console provides some welcome storage space, and carries a low-profile shifter within easy reach. Just in front of the custom chrome and leather steering wheel is a striking-looking dash area blending the stock Chevelle look with some very effectively placed carbon fiber accents. Open one of the doors and you'll find that the dash area is illuminated by blue LEDs in place of the standard interior lighting. This Chevelle makes a big statement as far as audio is concerned, as well, with a Sony AM/FM/CD system with USB ports and Bluetooth connectivity sitting in the dash to control the trunk mounted amplifier and an array of Discus speakers and subwoofers to provide all the sonic firepower you could want.

Raise the hood and you'll see why that extra clearance is needed. A 572-cubic inch V8 sits inside the very clean looking engine bay. With an estimated 700-plus horsepower and torque to match, it is dressed up with aluminum valve covers and a serpentine pulley system. To maximize the jaw-dropping power of the big block, it's paired with a six-speed transmission. There aren't many cars on the road carrying drivetrains anywhere close to being on a par with this one, and it's in great form - the engine is running smoothly and sounds awesome and the transmission shifts very precisely. Aftermarket suspension components, 4-wheel disc brakes and adjustable coil over shocks ensure that it handles the way it should and provide the perfect stance. This muscle car in the truest sense of the word sits on a set of 18" BOSS Motorsports wheels, outfitted with 245/40 Federal tires in front and meaty 285/40 Goodyear Eagle F1s in back.
