Thought it was odd to see two of the rarest full-size '72 Chevys for sale at the same time:

First is a white-on-blue '71 with a factory 3-speed stick and 6-cylinder. Pretty cool to see a set of stick pedals in a '71 big car.

Second is a gold-on-black '72 with a factory 402/TH400 and apparently only 19,500 original miles. I can't say I have ever seen a BB in a post-'69 Biscayne that wasn't a squad car.

Can't believe I'm saying this but I kinda prefer the '71.

That's a lot of car for a 6-cyl to try and motivate along..... but (strangely) it appeals more to me, too.

quintessential 70's boat. These were everywhere back in the day

I say Big Block 72" or go home! But that's Me. Both are a "Blast from the Past"

IMO, the 72 would look WAY better with the same blackwalls and dog dish caps that the 71 has. Those full wheel covers are butt-ugly :(
