That A/C does NOT look factory. My grandfather had a 56 Star Chief with factory air, and he had ducts in the dashboard just like they have today. Tell us about your a/c unit and please describe it in detail.
Stunning fantastic classic Chevy Camaro IROC Z ( McKenzie ) you made a mistake at the beginning of this video, you said 90, 000, instead of 9000, lol we are cool bro. love & enjoy this review as all the rest.
heres all the purists playing judge again . These guys think every car that isnt totally original and stock is junk. Stock=Boring! If you gotta have ac then pay to have it put in or go buy a late model car.
Little late to the party but the 360 CI was never offered with a 4V carburetor, only 2V. If there is a 4V carb on the truck it is not concourse correct. The washer reservoir is correct. I am curious if this truck is an original XLT. That was top of the line in ‘72. It does not have A/C, power brakes, oil pressure or ammeter gauges, and a painted gas cap instead of a chrome cap. I did not notice if it had power steering. My dad had a ‘69 Ranger (not XLT) and a’72 Sport Custom. Both had power steering and chrome gas cap. The ‘69 was a 390.
I think its w72 400 by looks of The oval air intake chrome valve covers ect so its a speacal car typical 400 ci ta was 180 hp these were 220 hp underated more like 260 280 and with exhaust headers over 300 hp 350 ft tq not a slow car for the late 1970s best you get
Great styling but the engine that year was pathetic. 180 hp? Nice choice of music though! And that paint job is utterly stellar. Of course maybe the engine was bagged when he got it and it's been rebuilt into a powerhouse.
'67 was a unique year. It was the first 12 volt and last of an older style tail lights and bumper. It was also the only year with the dual reverse lights fastened to the bumper. Although this car has not been restored to the original specs, the 1600 engine is a welcome upgrade, especially driving up steep hills. It's a beautiful car that can be a daily driver, especially in mild-weathered states that don't experience extreme heat or cold since there is no A/C and the heater is not an efficient windshield defogger/defoster. That being said, I've owned and loved quite a few of them, including a '66 Beetle convertible and a '71 Karmann Ghia convertible.
I just learned there were 2 tpi 305s available with manuals. One was 25hp more than the other with a lower 5th gear and 3.45 LSD. Give me that in Yellow Gold and t tops👌🏻
