Vehicle Description
This 1972 Chevrolet Corvette convertible hits all the high notes: a
matching-numbers V8, numbers-matching four-speed, and a great/rare
color combo. So look over all the details of this classic to see
how it's the perfect mix of investment and originality.
This one really seems to get its total appearance right, and it all
starts with the paint. The code-987 Ontario Orange was only
available for two years. It gives this C3 coupe the same bold first
impression you get with a classic red Corvette, but with an instant
distinction in a crowd. It was updated later in life so that now
it's the ideal mix of a driver-ready car that also has an
attractive clearcoat shine. The panels have the fit of good care
and investment right down to the smooth headlight flaps and the
doors you can shut with authority. These earlier C3s are also for
the brightwork lovers, and so the thin bumpers, bright grilles,
rocker panels, Rally wheels, and optional luggage rack come
together to add to this vintage and shining package.
The white convertible top is nice and bright, and so this one looks
quite attractive with the roof in place. But a convertible like
this loves to be open to the world. That's why the saddle tan
interior is a harmonizing color against the orange paint for a
factory-correct and true 1970s style machine. There is an
attractive style with nice high-back bucket seats, newer plush
carpeting, power windows, and an overall sense of a cared-for
classic. Even the Delco AM/FM radio is there for a display. As the
driver, you get a three-spoke steering wheel on a tilt/telescopic
steering column. Just ahead of that is the large dual pod gauges,
including the tach. Just to the side are a full set of auxiliary
readouts for a true sports car experience. And you just know the
bright shifter is calling out for your right hand.
When you lift the hood, you can see this car is the total package.
This is the original, matching-numbers 350 cubic inch V8. It has a
bright block, polished air grabber, matching distributor shield,
and overall tidy look of quality care. You'll even spot newer
investments in fundamentals like the alternator, brake booster,
master cylinder, hoses, and belt. So it's a classic made for
driving. That's why the motor fires up so eagerly, and the
numbers-matching four-speed lets you take confident control. Plus,
the power steering, four-wheel disc brakes, and the fully
independent suspension keep this one of the best vintage sports
cars around.
Complete with owner's manual, this Stingray provides distinction
and history in a terrific drop-top package. So don't miss your
chance, call today!
