I recently found a 1972 Chevelle SS, in really good condition. Just so Happens I've been saving up for "go fast parts" on the Evo. I am looking for some imput, from you guys. What would you do? Buy the Chevelle and have a good little project. Build the Evo, into a bad ****!! Or just save my cash for something else?

 

built evo ftw.

 

If you're 50 or 60 years old the SS. If not the EVO!

 

If the SS is cheap enough i would say get it your not going to loss money on that like the evo as far as value,all of those classic muscle cars are becoming more and more expensive.

 

Im not as Old as Smokedmustang is The Guy wants $4300 but I think he'll take alittle less. The only thing it could use is paint and Its not that bad.

 

I dont think you have to be old to love muscle cars im 23 and i have a 67 camaro ss that im trying to put an lsx style motor in.I like domestics as much as imports maybe its just me but both sides have some pretty bad *** rides.

 

I have both...actually I have 3 '66 Chevelles (one is an SS). 600hp Chevelle for Vintage and Evo for daily and fun. 72 isnt my favorite years (70 and down) because of the single lights and doesnt have as much collector value. Thats just me being picky though.

I would say both if you can swing it.

Plus 70 is the last year of the muscle car. I have a 70 SS nova and I think its kool but its not a drive around town all the time car. Plus if you do decide to get it make sure its a true SS and not a clone.

 

$4300? you got a pic?

 

You should really take this guy's advice.

 

Personally I don't like any Chevelle made after '66 but, Muscle cars are cool. $4300 sounds pretty cheap for '72 that runs and drives.

 

If its a REAL SS car and its as clean as you say it is.

Then deff. buy the SS , its a nice car and will only go up in value.

 

Do it the 3 Fast 3 Furious way and drop a Japanese engine into the American car.

Then drift around a mountain, etc.

 

I highly doubt its a real SS, if it is the rear underside 1/4 panels are probably shot. Look at the side of the trunk, underside of doors while there. $4300 sounds a bit on the cheap side. What size motor? Im bringing my 72 with me when I move to CO in a few weeks.

 

Overnight parts from Japan!
