Default May trade in the GNX for...

'72 Camaro SS with a 350


100% numbers matching, in almost mint condition. rebuilt from the ground up - this car is pristine. the only imperfections are in the paint, where it's starting to bubble from rust...


they're asking $19,900 (Corvettes and Classics) so I think it may be an (almost) fair trade...


what do you guys think?

But the GNX is in just "fair" condition. The Camaro is just about mint. Plus, it's numbers matching and for a '72 SS, which was a low production model, it's pretty rare.

Also, I know the Chevy 350 left and right - I can build you one with my eyes shut. With the GNX, there's a lot I don't know...



The Camaro is in better condition than this car:




That's a '72 RS, but it's almost identical looking to the SS. The one I'm looking at has 15in TorqThrust wheels, though, rather than 17's like in the pic...

I just think a 900 hp GNX would be vastly more cool than a 600 HP Camaro...

faster for sure.... I'm just not a GNX fan myself. Besides, he could always drop a Weiand Supercharger on it and go for 1000hp

I agree, like I said I just don't care for the GNX.... and I'm not talking 350

I'm not a big fan of 70's Camaros. Too much redneck/white trash association with them. Actually, Camaros of any vintage have that association in these parts...
