1972 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS

Description

There's a difference between driving a classic and arriving in a classic... and this 1972 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS will always show you that distinction. With its electric-level luster, performance-built big block, four-wheel disc brakes, and a loaded A/C interior, everyone remembers this muscle machine the moment it arrives.

A real-deal split-bumper Camaro RS is already worth its weight in silver, but unlike other Rally Sports out there, its iconic front wasn't even the first piece that caught your eye. The Camaro was destined for a color scheme like this, but Chevy never had the technology or time to make it look this good from the factory. After all, these early second-gen cars blend European-like contoured sheetmetal with sharp muscle car creases to create one of the best designs to come out of Detroit. And today you can see this artistic style perfectly thanks to a solid investment in a modern metallic blue. When the sunshine hits the paint it makes this Camaro look like its dripping wet, and it's even butter-smooth to the touch. And the attraction of this one goes well beyond deep blue attitude. The tall custom cowl hood, silver dual sport stripes, and all those callouts give this a serious presence. Plus, those deep dish US Mags alloys are staggered 17/18-inches front rear to make sure they add to the aggression as much as they add to this Camaro's elegance.

Inside there are more solid investment in all the right places. Black on the bucket seats, door panels, dash, and headliner is always on the best muscle cars, but it's far from a sea of darkness. Classic wood paneling and plenty of bright trim give this a cool classic attitude. And since it has upgrades such as an AM/FM/CD stereo and ice-cold R134a air conditioning, this is the perfect classic for family and friends. But really this Camaro was made just for the driver. You get classic Chevy performance pieces like the NK4 steering wheel and horseshoe shifter. This is joined by a full custom gauge panel that contains a complete set of AutoMeter readouts, including the huge ProComp speedo and tach. So you know this Camaro will have your heart racing even before you twist the key and hear it roar.

We know you're going to love lifting the hood and showing off how the engine bay is stuffed with big block power. And while most of us would be happy with just a 396 cubic-inch V8, this monster motor was fortified with plenty of go-fast goodies such as an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, Crane 292-292 camshaft, MSD ignition, and long tube headers that feed a thunderous H-pipe dual exhaust. And this one was built to handle all the big power it creates. The V8 feeds a stout TH400 three-speed automatic transmission that connects to a Ford 9-inch rear end. Plus, you're running a 9" rear with 3.73 gears and Positraction for proper power takeoffs. Out on the road, the lowered suspension, power steering, and thick front sway bar are exactly what you want. And the upgrade to four-wheel disc brakes and grip of modern performance tire completes this superior handling package.

The car comes with a full file of restoration photos and maintenance records, but we know you were already sold on this Camaro from the moment you saw it. After all, when you look this good, sound this mean, and still offer this much luxury, you're always going to be in demand. So don't miss out, call today!
