About this 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS-454/ LS5

VIN: 1D37W2K565255

Described by Gateway Classic Cars of Kansas City as a head-turning classic, this 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Tribute captures the essence of one of the most celebrated muscle cars of the early 1970s. The 1972 model year marked the final production run for the second-generation Chevelle, adding historical significance to any well-executed example from this era. While factory-original SS 454 models left Chevrolet dealerships with the LS5 big block under the hood, this tribute takes a more muscular approach with a 502 cubic inch V8 swap—giving it even greater presence and performance than the original production spec.

  • Body & Styling: 2-door coupe finished in Silver over a Black vinyl interior
  • Engine & Drivetrain: 502 big block V8 paired with an automatic transmission; equipped with power steering and power brakes
  • Features & Comfort: Factory-style air conditioning, AM/FM radio with cassette player, custom wheels, and radial tires
  • Originality: Modified condition with a non-original engine (502 swap); presented as an SS Tribute

According to the seller, this Chevelle has been crafted to deliver an engaging driving experience, blending classic muscle car character with practical upgrades like power-assisted steering and brakes. The Black vinyl interior is said to provide a timeless, comfortable cabin, while the air conditioning ensures cruising enjoyment regardless of the weather. With just over 18,000 miles displayed on the odometer—though total mileage is unknown—the car presents as a well-kept, driver-quality build.

From a market standpoint, the 1972 Chevelle SS 454 remains a consistently desirable collectible. Recent comparable sales within the Chevrolet Chevelle SS - 2nd Gen market have ranged from approximately $50,000 to $67,000, depending on originality, condition, and equipment. Modified tributes like this one occupy a strong position in the market by offering enhanced drivability and big-block performance while honoring the legacy of Chevrolet's legendary intermediate muscle car.
