Here is an example of a nicely preserved SS Big Block car. This car is equipped with a completely Numbers Matching 402 motor, 4-speed trans., rear end, etc. IT’S NOT A 454. It just has the fender markings and air cleaner sticker. IT’S A REAL U CODE VIN SS CAR.

It retains all of it original sheet metal, including floors, trunk, fenders, and rear quarters (numbers are factory stamped on the quarters). The undercarriage is very clean and rust free.

Vitals:
402 BB Engine – Numbers Matching
Muncie 4-speed Trans– Numbers Matching
12 Bolt 3.31 Posi Rear end - Numbers Matching
Cowl Induction Hood with working flap
Factory Black Buckets Seats – No rips or tears
Real Code 75 Cranberry Red paint
Original Rear Quarters – Numbers are stamped in by trunk area
Points type Ignition
Factory Rally Gauges
F41 Suspension


The car comes with a clear title and a folder full of receipts, including engine rebuild and miscellaneous parts. Engine has approximately 1800 miles since rebuild (have receipt). I also have the factory smog pump equipment with the engine manifolds, orange painted valve covers, and original water pump. Also, I have the original black air cleaner cover.


What is Needs:
The paint is dated. It is certainly presentable, but not show quality. It was painted approximately 10 years ago and showing its age. It has some chips and other imperfections.
The front grill has a small crack.
Needs a rubber Trunk seal
Needs a door rubber seal by window area
Cowl Induction air cleaner seal


Please, if you’re interested in a Barrett Jackson restored car in perfect condition this is not the car for you. If you want to own a Genuine 1972 numbers matching Big Block 4-speed Cranberry Red SS Chevelle, then by all means call and come see the car.

This car runs, drives, shifts, and performs SUPER. It is very original and factory stock.

More details pictures are available. Please call.

The price is CASH negotiable ONLY. Checks and wire transfers will be accepted, but the price is firm.

If it's a numbers matching car, why have a 454 decal on the air cleaner lid?

From the ad:

I don't get it. If it's a nicely preserved numbers matching car with 402 then why does the air cleaner and fenders have 454 stickers/emblems??

Am I missing something? Shouldn't it have 402 or 396 emblems/decals??

Rick H,,,,,There are two kinds of simple trim and decal changes. Some guys want sleepers and go the other way (396 emblems on LS6s). Other guys want the car to be a bit more than they have to the casual observer, like this car. Actually the only thing I dont understand is why the owner didnt make the quick change, at least for the auction so people would have no doubt in their minds about the car.......Bill S

SS402's and SS350's didn't have engine call-out's on the front fenders

Bill,
Actually that was my point. If you are claiming a nice preserved numbers matching car then why advertise that the A/C decal is wrong and has wrong fender badges? Best to fix the little stuff correctly (if that is truely all that is wrong) and not mention it at all in my opinion.

As mentioned it does raise a little doubt.

Maybe, he can't remove the <font color="red">454</font> emblems, because someone drilled holes into the fenders to mount them. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif
