1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Concours Estate Wagon With Ss Trim Package And More on 2040-cars

Year:1972 Mileage:0
Location:

Napa, California, United States

Napa, California, United States

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.

Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Quentin Tarantino fans will likely remember Vincent Vega's cherry 1964 Chevrolet Malibu Convertible in Pulp Fiction. In a movie drenched in automotive references, the Malibu is very nearly a character in and of itself, and it serves as the subject of Vega's soliloquy about the kind of man who vandalizes another's automobile. It also happened to be Tarantino's personal car when the film was shot, and was apparently stolen shortly after production wrapped. Now police have located the car some 19 years later.
As it turns out, the thieves cloned the vehicle identification number from another '64 Malibu and had the car registered under the new digits. It was then sold to an unsuspecting buyer. Police happened upon the duplicate VINs while investigating another potential theft. Right now, it's unclear whether Tarantino has taken possession of the Chevrolet, if it has remained in the possession of the fraud victim, or whether it's caught somewhere in the gears of justice. Either way, you can catch Vega's memorable thoughts on the car keying in the Pulp Fiction clip below. But consider yourself warned: the video contains explicit language as Not Safe For Work as it comes.

The Tesla Model S was the best-selling EV of 2015

Thu, Jan 14 2016

According to numbers crunched over at Hybrid Cars, the Tesla Model S was the best selling pure electric vehicle last year with 50,366 deliveries. These numbers might not tell the whole story, since Tesla reports deliveries made in 2015 that might have been sold in a different calendar year, while other makers are tallying sales. However, it's inarguable that the Model S ended up in more worldwide driveways than the second-place Nissan Leaf, which did about 43,000 sales. In the US alone, Leaf sales were down 42.8 percent year-on-year, from 30,200 in 2014 to 17,269 last year, and that decline also increased throughout the year. That marks a great finish to a great start to 2015, when Tesla took the lead in EV sales in the US for the first quarter. On top of that, as of last year the Model S becomes the second-best selling EV ever, with 107,148 deliveries since the middle of 2012. It trails the Nissan Leaf, with well over 200,000 worldwide sales. The Chevrolet Volt/Opel Ampera combo takes a close third, with about 106,000 sales. The Nissan and Chevy rivals both launched at the end of 2010, a 16-month head start on the Tesla. Down the charts, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV which continues to be forbidden fruit for our market notched 39,000 sales. The BYD Qin PHEV sold 31,898 examples in China, and BYD would take the overall victory from Tesla with 58,728 deliveries if you counted all of its EV and PHEV production, such as its electric buses. The BMW i3 nabbed fourth place with 24,057 global sales. In 2011 the Munich automaker said it wanted to sell 30,000 i3s annually by 2014, but by the time the car launched the company considered 15,000 annual sales 'great for now,' so the 2015 number seems a fine place to wind up.
