Dave R’s 1972 Chevelle

Built From The Ground Up

Dave R’s 1972 Chevelle

Dave bought this 1972 Chevelle 10 years ago and although she’s a beauty today, Dave is still adding things and changing things around to make this Chevelle more his style.

The drivetrain is a hand-built 454 big block coupled to a Turbo 400 transmission pushed by a 3.73 rear end. The car sits in its stunning original Fathom Blue that was repainted a few years ago.

“This Chevelle was built from the Ground Up and uses too many parts to list. Thanks for all the help!”

– Dave R
