I agree - Baldwin Motion cars were killer. Few things say 1972 like patent leather button and tuck upholstery. That front end is damn cool. I wish Chevy could fit an airbag in a classic steering wheel like that.

And I don't think that's a decal. I bet that's enamel.

I like the notch back look on my '72, but the lack of storage sucks.

Although I'm not digging the interior, I like the overall look compared to what a lot of C3 cars have suffered throughout the years.

At least in the picture...the back end looks too much like the same vintage Camaro. Not that I dislike the 70-72 Camaro..just noting the similarity.

I like what they did with the front. Custom, but not 70's gaudy like the interior.
