    Believe it or not, this was my driver's training car in high school in 1972 when I was 15. Except it was yellow with black stripes and black vinyl roof, Cowl Induction hood and 454 badges.The instructor told us to be careful with the accelerator as we all took turns driving it around town. Every one of us barked the tires taking off even if not trying. The car didn't last long as a training car. The next year the kids got a Datsun B210. A great time to be a kid.

    I've never understood why here in Britain the American cars we got imported were not the same as the ones in America. Absolutely the best styling in the world. Some of the the older cars are actually works of art. I've always wanted to go to America just to drive your cars. 🇬🇧🇺🇸

      Thanks Dad! As a Yank I feel the same way about some of those Aussie muscle cars. Like the 73 to 76 Falcon XB. So I feel your pain.
      You are best Ally 🇺🇸🇬🇧

    In the 1970's my buddy has a 1970 chevelle 454 ls6 engine it did come factory with an automatic on the column, but with a posi rear. When the car was at full throttle and shifted into second gear the rear tire's would lite up again, impressive for an automatic.

      @@donjuan7030 a real ss would have had counsel shifting stick automatic. A lot of them had 4 speed. They all had positive traction. The reason his tires why his tires spin so easy is there is only one tire that drives the car not two. It would spin the tires the same in the rain if it had a stock 350 engine

    My dad had a 'regular 72 Chevelle El Camino for a while. I think it had a 350 small block if I remember right. Also, a good friend of mine had a '72 SS 454 Chevelle just like this one except his was a medium lime/tennis ball green. His aunt who he was staying with in Houston bought it for him around 1977 or 78. I't been so long I don't remember. Coincidentially, earlier in the seventies, his mother had a 1970 SS 454 Monte Carlo. It too was green, but a darker shade. His mother was rather monied at the time, as her late husband had owned the Chevrolet dealership in DeQuincy, LA.. Back in the early '70's, we were just past the classic "muscle car" era of the mid and late '60's. When his mom let him drive it, I remember him telling me about shutting down a few cars at red lights who missed seeing the "SS 454" badges on the front rocker panels! Of course, she didn't realize it was a muscle car and only picked it because it "looked good". Those were indeed the days. Years ago? Yeah, but I just turned 70.
