Would need to see more of under the car and the rust prone spots.

I see AC but no compressor, rubber fuel line.

Looks like he bought it and is flipping it.

Similar here... http://www.ebay.com/itm/1972-Chevrol...pZHbGd&vxp=mtr

Only 25k buy it now.

Nice color though (Steel Cities Gray), but needs a new top, and seats, and carpet for sure.

big block A/C convertibles have a higher ceiling than non A/C cars. looks like it needs thousands on cosmetic work, but if no rust then the price is right. remember that in big block convertibles, numbers matching does not always mean original. do your homework.

I don't care for it much. Needs paint, ugly steering wheel, many non original parts under hood etc. etc.

I like the SCG with Blue not a combo you see often. The engine pad looks good and the trim tag looks good, needs some work and money but Real LS5 Vert in a rare color combo for 25k is a great price.
