    This one was originally for sale for $1,500, bought by a flipper and cleaned up and he sold it for around $3,500-$4,000 range. Look close at right front fender. Lower edge is rusty and it's bent. Decent car but not a $7,000 plus car

    I agree, it is loaded but it needs to be a Kingswood (Caprice) with wood for that price and Swanny, it is closer to 8K!

    I like it but not enough to pay $8000 for it.

    I can't really find a pic of the lower right front fender - which may be the idea, I guess.

    Oh yeah... I bought a car once and in all the pictures of the car he had up close pictures of the tires... except one. THAT tire turned out to be the original factory spare bias ply and the rest were newer radials...

    I question whether that is an original 1972 GM factory color. Not in the 1972 brochure. Looks more like 1976.

    It needs woodgrain (Kingswood Estate trim) and 3rd seat and will be all set. :)

    the spare tire well bottom is painted, it's not likely original paint. I believe the original ad stated that when it was in OR still.

    Color does look similar to the color on the Brookwood wagon in this page from the '72 Chevy wagon brochure....
