Default Chevelle on Craigslist

http://baltimore.craigslist.org/ctd/1358724217.html

I didn't know that LS7 heads could fit on an LS1 block? Anything else odd about it?

I think they made a Mistake, its proabably a LS7 but I think he ment LSX. I hope he has the original motor and all the other parts that make it numbers matching. There is more to that then just block and heads.....

He wants serious money for that 72 which for a Former Chevelle owner was not all that desirable... but that IMO.

This was mine, I had redone the suspension and it sat higher. I think since everything was probably redone on the Chevelle, and probably not driven, the suspension has not even been broken in.

It looks like the oil filter is hanging down in the from... Check out the front of the car.. Nice ride but bad place to put a remote oil filter..

Its a pullout from an 02 ss with an LS6 head/cam package. Its not an original SS car either, I have access to the original build sheet that was on the gastank. I just found its marketing interesting and figured I would share.

Yes, a lot more than it probably should be. I'd like to know where the 30k in engine work is because I should get a bigger cut for the basetune in it. ;-)
