This 1972 Chevelle wagon is Very Clean and Nice. A very thorough resto-mod was done a few years ago including the Super Sport style trim and big block hood. The hard to find tilt steering, roof rack and rear window air deflector were added options.

The wagon has cold air conditioning that is converted to a 134a system.

New tires are mounted on the Corvette Rally wheels. The receiver type hitch was installed to tow a boat to the lake for family fun. An additional right side gas tank was also added where the spare tire well is. The spare is now under the floor in the rear storage compartment.

The 2-way tailgate works great and of course the rear power window works fine.

Nearly all the weather strips, window seals and channels were replaced when the car was repainted. For all you Numbers-Guys, the paint code is 26 I think the color is called Mulsanne Blue.

Great car to drive. Impeccable care and maintenance has been given. Look Very close at ALL photos. This is an above average Chevelle, ready to enjoy!

The level of quality here makes you wonder why would anyone buy a “new-car” when they have no personality and no resale value. These great cars that were made up to 1972 had style, dependability and value. This an investment quality Chevelle.

The "book numbers" suggest where the price would be for an average car of this make and model. Since this one is certainly above average, take a look at the numbers and I think you get an idea where the value of this Chevelle should be.

NOTE: I did not enter the odometer reading. I could do this, but I don't even know for sure if it is an original speedometer or not. Seems to me that if I have not had a car since new and have no original documentation that it is correct, I should not post whatever it says, so I don't.

My reserve is very reasonable for what you are getting here. 

I have MANY photos I can share for bidders. Including chassis, floors, rockers, bottom of doors, any areas I can reach with a camera, I can send a photo.

ALSO Included is a custom-made fitted matching color water replant cover. Yes, I have a road test video as well. I am not sure how to include a link here.

Good Luck Bidding!

Thanks for all the questions. Hope a few more details help!

The front suspension and steering has been rebuilt, new bushings, springs, ball joints and shocks. New center link, tie rods and idler arm. Heavy duty sway bar on front with new links and bushings, yes it also has a rear swap bar. The rear end is the LARGE GM 8-bolt. I have MANY photos of the chassis and enough details so you can see original sheet-metal under there that still has the original blue paint visible to show it is authentic.

Many more photos can be sent but I am not sure if I can attach them to the reply. Let me know if you want more info or pictures. Happy to send it all.

The intake is an Edelbrock with a Holly spread-bore vacuum secondary electric choke carb.

Reserve is at the upper end for an original car if you look at price guides, that is where we are with this one- This nice, hard to find. There was one that sold the other side of 20 grand. I think I need to be right in that area. Already turned away a couple of real solid offers. You need to reach a little deeper to make it happen.

Thank You for all the interest and I hope my replies to every email has helped.

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Spark EV in Canada, Audi to use Valeo electric supercharger

Mon, Apr 13 2015

The Chevrolet Spark EV will become available to retail customers in Canada. "We're expanding our electric vehicle offerings to our customers by offering the 2016 Spark EV for retail sales in the growing EV markets here in Quebec as well as in Ontario and BC," says Chevrolet's Chris Hay. Chevrolet has not yet released pricing for the Spark EV in Canada. In the US, the Spark EV is available in California, Oregon and Maryland. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Four recreational vehicle companies in Texas have settled with the EPA over illegal import and sale of off-road vehicles. The 4,000-plus Hammerhead brand vehicles in question were imported without the proper certification, a violation of the Clean Air Act. Some vehicles lacked proper emission control equipment or were manufactured by a company not listed on the certificate application. The settlement totals $560,000 in civil penalties for the companies involved. Read more from the EPA. The Iowa Supreme Court has upheld the state's natural gas tax, which was challenged by the ethanol industry. Ethanol producers, which use natural gas to make ethanol, argued the complicated tax was unconstitutional, as it forced certain plants to pay more than their competitors. Taxes vary by location, and some plants have to tap into interstate pipelines at much higher tax rates rather than get it from a local utility. Now, ethanol producers will work to change the law. "My hope is that people understand that, something may be constitutional but that doesn't make it good public policy," says Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Executive Director Monte Shaw.

Valeo says Audi will launch a vehicle using its electric supercharger next year, with other reports suggesting that car will be the Audi Q7. The company says other unspecified automakers will also use the technology in their vehicles. While the electric supercharger adds to the vehicle's cost and electric energy use, it can improve fuel economy by as much as 20 percent. Read more at Automotive News Europe.

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.
