1972 Chevrolet Corvette

Description

If you're a first-time Corvette buyer looking for the right car, we'd strongly recommend this 1972 coupe. Not only does it have matching numbers, which you'll agree can be very important, but it as well comes equipped with a 4-speed and a ton of options, making it a pleasure to drive. Best of all, someone else has already done the hard work to make it perform, so all you need to do is turn the key and enjoy.

Covered in a coat of its factory correct Sunflower Yellow, this Corvette is more than ready for the open road. The finish shows some age but presents well and you won't feel guilty about unleashing the Vette on the open road. It's done well enough to encourage you to remove the T-tops and proudly cruise in the sun. All the panel gaps are factory correct and in decent shape. And when it comes to C3s, you cant beat chrome bumpers as this one sports the original style pieces that frame the egg crate grilles up front, and add interest to the flat rear panel. The stainless appears to be original, and throughout the car someone took the time to add nice pin stripping to accent all the emblems and add a little flare to this 'Vette.

New seat covers are just the beginning of the luxury interior offered in this 1972 Corvette and the all black interior is one that is a classic look with the yellow exterior. The bucket seats are covered in black vinyl. The carpets are clean and the door panels appear to be original and in great shape. All the gauges are fully functional and appear original including the center stack gauges as are the factory tachometer and auxiliary gauges. The center console also houses an upgraded AM/FM radio with a CD player, and you'll be sure to crank up the music with the massive speakers that are housed in the storage compartment behind the seats. Overhead, the T-tops can be easily removed offering an open-air experience that everyone knows is Corvette tradition, and with new weather stripping you can bet that they should seal up beautifully, so rain or shine this is one car you can take out and show off.

Lift the hood of that iconic body and you'll find the original 350 V8 that wears a 6-digit matching VIN code. This 350 has been punched out and stroked to now snarl as a 383 cubic inch V8 beast. The entire engine bay has also been restored, and the results are fantastic. Up top you'll find a dual snorkel air cleaner with a chrome cover that sits on top of a 750CFM carburetor. Inside the 383 to make that power you'll find a eagle steel forged and balanced stroker crank, Comp hydraulic roller lifters, EPW roller needle rockers, and a set of Comp Cams forged racing pistons and rods. Equipped with aluminum heads and a Edelbrock performer intake, this engine is more than ready for the open road. Bolted to the engine is a 4-speed manual transmission. Power is supplied to the ground through 15" new factory rally rims that have been wrapped in BF Goodrich radial T/A's

Clean, honest Corvettes don't get much nicer than this, especially if you're the kind of guy who likes to just jump in and go. But don't make the mistake of waiting to long. This Corvette won't last long under our showroom lights. Call today!
