This 1972 Chevelle rolled into Charlies Custom Creations<\/a> in Murfreesboro, Tennessee for metal repair on the quarter panels, floor, and trunk pan. However it left the company with many more upgrades. In the engine bay sits a 6.2 L LS3 V8 crate motor paired with a 4L65E four-speed automatic transmission and Moser 9-inch rear end. The freshly powder coated chassis features CPP tubular control arms, 4-link rear suspension, and QA1 coilovers on every corner. The Chevelle rides on a set of Big Slot wheels (20×8, 20×10) covering disc brakes front and back. <\/p>\n
