1972 Corvette LT-1 Convertible Mille Miglia Red with Deluxe Black
Leather Interior and Black Soft Top. Hi-Po Solid Lifter LT-1 350
with 4�Speed�Transmission.� This is one of only 240 LT-1's
originally equipped with�Factory Air Conditioning!� Other features
include Power Steering, Power Disc Brakes, Tilt/Telescopic Steering
Column, Original AM/FM Radio, Power�Windows, Auxiliary Hard Top,
Complete original�Smog Equipment, and Rally Wheels with White
Letter Radials.� This is one very rare and well equipped original
LT-1! A nice bit of trivia courtesy of the Corvette Black Book...
1972 was the only year in the 70-72 Series that the LT-1 Engine
could be optioned with Air Conditioning. Previous restrictions were
based on the fear of AC Belts being spun off by the higher RPM of
the solid lifter engine. To discourage customers from running high
RPM with these cars, they were fitted with 5600rpm red line
tachometers from the base-engine car rather than the 6500rpm red
line of non-air conditioned LT-1's. Call it sneaky, call it an
after thought, but whatever you do, don't call this a run of the
mill old Corvette! Other than the coveted ZR-1, this is as rare as
they get!
