Vehicle Description
1972 Chevrolet Corvette for sale in our Detroit Showroom. This is a
great driver with just a few upgrades and one re-paint according to
the seller, and only 56,798 actual miles on the clock. The shine of
the bright red paint makes this Vette for sale stand out amongst
the ones at the shows! Options include: t-tops, power brakes, power
steering, tilt wheel, seat belts, vinyl interior, radial tires,
rally wheels, and numbers matching drivetrain. The original 350 CID
V8 rated at 200 HP still carries the partial VIN stamp and the CKW
suffix code clear and easy to read and it is backed by the original
easy to drive automatic transmission. 1972 was the last year from
chrome bumpers in both front and back of the Corvette so these have
become highly collectible. They are only original once and this one
is mostly original and in great shape! The engine was detailed, the
seats were correctly recovered, and a new carpet kit installed to
keep up appearances and the older repaint still shines well for its
age. The 200 horsepower was more a sign of the rating systems than
a true power loss from the previous year. Engines were now rated
with net horsepower opposed to gross horsepower from the year
before. This took into consideration losses from the air cleaner,
exhaust systems, and accessories like power steering. This car will
still move and get you thumbs up everywhere you go! The exhaust
note ringing from the dual exhaust is exactly what you expect with
a C3 Corvette! Located in our Detroit Showroom, this 1972 Corvette
Stingray for sale can be seen with over 100 HD photos and video at
www.GatewayClassicCars.com, or call 313-982-3100 for additional
information.
