View Full Version : 72 SS What do you guys think??
mike55 Oct 21st, 09, 09:33 AM I'm looking at a 72, 350 SS off Ebay. 250517401394 Just wondering on what some of you guys think of this car. Do you think its worth the money hes asking, and do you think its a real SS or a clone.. I need guys who know more about these cars than me to take a look.. Thanks Guys
higleyml Oct 21st, 09, 09:38 AM Mike the 72 is the only year that an SS model can be identified by the VIN number. I can not go to ebay at the moment to look at it however, that is where I would start. The fifth letter would be a K if it is a true SS.
mike55 Oct 21st, 09, 10:33 AM Well in the ad he has the vin marked as 1X27K as the first letters and numbers. So hopefully its a real SS.. Just wondering what you guys think of the shape of the car. Its hard to tell with pictures!!.. Whats a ball park price on a 72 SS these days. Fairly clean no rust 350 4 speed.. I know the prices have been dropping lately so I'm wondering what its really worth? Thanks

higleyml Oct 21st, 09, 11:54 AM That is a nice car! I have never been a big fan of the camilian paint but to each his own. As for the "super rare tach"...was that a nova option? I always understood the nova options was the dash tach? Personally I think it looks better without it and maybe someone with more knowledge of such things will chime in soon. I have seen cars here locally that were not that nice sell for more then the 12K buy now price.
mike55 Oct 21st, 09, 12:18 PM I'm with you on the paint, I sorta like just a regular finish.. But then again. I can allways paint it...I too have never seen a hood mounted tach that came on a Nova. For that matter I can't think of any Chevys with one. Pontiacs well thats another story.. I sent him a few questions about the car so I'm waiting on his reply....I bought a 70 last year that was basically a shell. I'm not finished yet and I must be around 10000 into it. and thats just parts.. This ones out there and running. Except its on the West coast and I'm on the East coast in Canada.. Shipping is another expense..
higleyml Oct 21st, 09, 12:38 PM Mike one other thing caught my eye that seems strange to me. He said it has CA tags and a clear AZ title...not sure on the how that whole thing works but it seems strange to me. As for shipping fly out there and drive it back!!! ROADTRIP!!!!

Thats one of the questions I asked him, if the title is in his name. I'm out of Canada and getting a vehicule thrrough the border is a pain in the rear.I'm waiting to hear back from him. ......I bought an El Camino like that once out of Kansas city. Car looked great in the ads. So Bought it off Ebay and decided to fly out and drive it back. Well once I got there I found, none of the lights worked properly, It wasn't charging the battery and the oil in the motor was almost pure sludge....Well jumping into a car I don't know and trust.. Well lets just say its another one of lifes little lessons.. If the car was within 500 miles no sweat.. But If I go for this thing its coming back on a hauler (LOL):noway:
Cador Oct 21st, 09, 04:50 PM So does the beer fetching dog in the pictures come with it?
Jackel Oct 21st, 09, 07:28 PM It is a very good price, well worth the admission. I would not hesitate to buy....Jackel
David_H Oct 21st, 09, 07:51 PM I think it looks like a great deal. now if it needs paint "I can allways paint it" then its over priced but I think the paint looks good.
mike55 Oct 22nd, 09, 07:13 AM Wow, Just checked it this morning. now its a starting bid of 18000 not 10000 and 22500 buy it now, not 12500, like it was yesterday... Geez talk about inflation!!!! I didn't know you could change your pricing after the listing started on Ebay??? ...Its a nice car, but at that price, see yah
Wild Willy Oct 22nd, 09, 07:25 AM he says he has changed his mind about selling his nova in one of the answers to a question. His changing the price in mid stream he will definitely be keeping it for a long time. what an idiot
higleyml Oct 22nd, 09, 09:27 AM Not cool! I bet the dude would scream like a school girl if someone did the buy now and backed out!
David_H Oct 22nd, 09, 10:31 AM You know that sucks cause I thought that buy it now was a great price I thought for sure it would of been gone by now..
