Rare! 1972 Chevy Camaro SS 396 (1 of 970 built) at Coyote Classics!!!

I have a 72 SS 396 Camaro, factory 4 speed, non air car. The one in the video is quite nice. I also have the cowl hood but it is not stock. The VIN on my car is quite late in the production as the Norwood strike start April 7. My car was build last week of Feb/first week of March in 1972. Have only found 3 other SS396 1972 Camaros with higher VIN numbers so far. GMs records are either nonexistent or a mess. Love these beasts!! Truly the fastest thing I have ever owned from gas pump to gas pump!!!

You just don't see these. Color combo sweet. All around super nice.

Not a 396.Its the LS3 402,and that's what the engine was finally correctly referred to as starting in 1971.1972 last year of the bb Camaro,and production numbers were low for a bb Camaro.Pretty rare .

End of 396 engine at the end of 1970 production year. How can numbers match on this ‘72?

Beautiful car, love the basket handle shifter. Cheers

I know they whacked H.P. on a 396 by 1972, the paint and color is spot on, it looks like it was dipped, somebody knows how to paint for sure. In my teens, early 80`s, there was a 70 Camaro, Hugger Orange, black stripes named Sassy on the rear spoiler, the Chargers, Cudas, Chevelles could not even touch that car, it think it was a 454 car. By far it was the fastest car in our neighborhood, my buddy had a 440, 6 pack Charger, and we couldn`t touch that Camaro, the guy took off the engine call outs, so we never knew what he was running, and he never shared. We cruised Gratiot every weekend, about 30 minutes north of Detroit, that Camaro brings back some memories guys, it looks stunning, I love the rallyes, take care.

It's a great car, for sure, but I guess I'm too old for it. I'm so used to these cars everywhere back in the day with flat hoods, I just can't un-see that now.

As someone that lived through those times, big block second gen Camaros were extremely rare. Z28's were much more common. Probably why the price is so high. We knew the 396 was .30 over(402) starting in '70. We still called them 396's.

Change the piston rings and throw a good carb on it then it'll be good to go

BEAUTIFUL !!!! BAD ASS

Well this looks like another one of the better ones you have I wish I had 60 Grand I would love to have it

That engine wont last long, already smoking.

Love to know what that paint color is. For sure a sweet tweak on Hugger Orange, looks to have some pearl in it..

1000% Beautiful

Sweet car. A very good friend has a 72' SS 396 4 Spd Numbers matching. I believe there were only 249 made in 72' with the 4 Spd. He has the big rectangular port heads on it but he does have original casting heads for it. Other than an upgrade to 16" tires it is basically original. Super sweet ride. The strike at Chevy was the main reason for low production numbers. I don.t believe the cowl hood is original....
