My 72.....

It's been a Georgia car all it's life....I'm only the 4th owner and two of those were in 2015.  I haven't looked real good for the numbers on the block but it appears to have none....I know the motor was rebuilt or replaced with a short block because it was slinging oil BAD so the 2nd owner who owned it from 1977 to 2014 had it done.....I will have to check the date code on the block to see if maybe it was decked and the numbers removed which may mean that it's matching numbers but no way to prove it....It's just a driver so it really doesn't matter anyway.

It's a '72  350 4 speed with AC....Repainted black and it's a 20 footer and that is being kind to it.....Looks great in the pics though.  It's not quite a bubba mobile... Still looks pretty stock under the hood besides the LT1 type valve covers....I don't think the AC works I'm not even sure how to turn it on. Belt is still on it so I know the clutch on the compressor it's locked up. No tilt steering wheel but does have power steering.  Roll up windows, no rust on the frame....The body mounts behind the kick panels looked good....I haven't pulled the inside window trim yet....It's looks pretty good from outside the glass. It needs carpet but the dash, door panels and seats are in pretty good shape.

I know it needs a new snubber bushing on the differential because it makes a "Clunk" sound when shifting gears....It sounds much like a uv joint going out on an old chevy truck. I can stick my pinky finger between the bushing and the frame....I have one on order already. I will have to have the trailing arms rebuilt at some point they make a slight grinding noise when making a slow turn like into a driveway....I knew about these issues before buying it.

There is another story about me missing buying this same car Saturday before last by 20 minutes...I ended up getting it for $1700 less because I guess the guy that just flipped it is a much better negotiator than I am....I was going to pay full asking price....I'll tell the rest of the story sometime.

Other than the clunk it made the 75 mile drive home with no issues at all.

I figure by the time I get the AC fixed, the rear end gone thru and some other little things that will take more labor than cash I will be about $15,000 into it..
