While the Chevelle name has been long gone from Chevy's showroom for decades, its legacy lives on in the hearts and minds of muscle car enthusiasts everywhere. One look at this 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle LS3 Restomod, and it's easy to see why this car has been so lusted after. Fully repainted in a beautiful and head-turning Viper Yellow, complete with ghost flames, this Chevelle has just 24,675 miles on it since it was rebuilt. Shaved door handles, an aggressive cowl hood, and polished chrome wheels showcase this car's classic lines while not-so-subtly hinting at its modern technology.
Inside, we find an incredibly inviting and fully custom interior. A lockable center console features power window switches and separates a pair of plush, supportive power bucket seats. A chrome-and-padded, power-assisted Billet Specialties wheel sits ahead of a set of custom white-faced Dolphin gauges featuring an 8,000-rpm tachometer and a 140-mph speedometer. A quadruplet of auxiliary gauges sits mid-dash, leaving plenty of negative space to appreciate the body-color dashboard paint. A Vintage Air HVAC setup provides welcomed AC for the summer months, while an Eclipse ESN AM/FM/CD head unit offers far more entertainment options than the unit it replaces.
Under that expansive hood, we find a late-model 6.2-liter overhead valve LS3 V-8 engine. With a lightweight aluminum block and heads, sequential-port fuel injection, a composite intake manifold, and high-flow injectors, this Gen IV small-block is capable of producing at least 426 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. That output is funneled through a 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission before heading out to the 3.70-geared rear end that transfers power to the pavement via a set of big 18-inch Intro wheels shod in 275/40R-18 low-profile rubber. At the same time, a narrower set of 235/40R-18 Toyo tires handles steering duties up front.
