What a Shame! 72 SSJ on Craigslist
 
72 Hurst SSJ 4 Speed on Craigslist might be too far gone to restore.

I've never seen one, but I've only seen 2 SSJs,

No manual GPs in 72. Very few in 71 as the option was cancelled early in the run.
Poor SSJ...

Green with green interior SSJ?
Would be awfully rare if it was legit.

It looks like a Hurst AutoStick shifter. Just a floor mount automatic shifter that looks like a manual trans shifter. I have seen them in the SSJ literature.

ssj71 05-31-2016 11:52 PM

Could be an Auto/Stick car, but that means it would have been a bench-seat car originally. Very hard to tell what's original on that car and what's not.

It's got the sunroof and the correctly placed exterior emblems, but would love to see better pictures...I, for one, can't conclude what exterior color that car would have been.

It kind of looks like Pewter.

ssj71 06-01-2016 06:14 PM

Needs a PHS....wonder if the seller has a copy.

UPC-WU2 06-02-2016 02:17 PM

Has anyone been able to contact the seller?
I emailed a couple of days ago. No response yet.

I see the ad is no longer. Harvey, did you add another to the collection?

ssj71 06-03-2016 06:21 PM

Not me. Between me and Larry, our garages are bursting at the seams. Not into big restos either...

Revere Silver and black upper 2 tone ,white stripes with black half roof. Pewter interior bench seat .

Diego 06-07-2016 12:43 AM

My friend just picked it up. Yes, it's got the bench seat with Auto-Stick. He says it's Pewter but who knows?

76WS4 06-07-2016 01:10 AM

Cool !

ssj71 06-07-2016 07:00 PM

Anything seems possible with the 72 SSJs. Would love to hear more about it and see a PHS on it...

76WS4 06-08-2016 11:22 AM

Silver/ black must be the only one in this color combo.

ssj71 06-08-2016 09:34 PM

There is another documented all silver with black SSJ that was given to George Hurst's accountant back in 1972.

This one...

ssj71 06-09-2016 07:54 PM

Yes, that's it. I believe that's the auction photo from around 2012 and I currently have no idea where that car is, but if I'm not mistaken, it sold at auction in St. Louis. Probably not helpful since those auction cars get shipped everywhere.

I have some paperwork somewhere on the accountant who owned that while working with Hurst.
