Vehicle Description
This 1972 Chevrolet Corvette LT1 is one of only 1,741 produced with
the high-performance LT1 engine option. Mille Miglia Red paint with
white LT1 stripes amplifies the aggressive C3 body style. Chrome
bumpers bookend the fiberglass shell, while retractable headlights
maintain the sleek profile. The 15-inch wheels wear correct-style
covers, wrapped in Uniroyal Steel Belted radials - 225/75R15 up
front and 225/70R15 in the rear. This combo delivers both vintage
looks and modern grip.
Red vinyl adorns the interior, creating a bold cockpit that screams
performance. The bucket seats offer firm support, keeping you
anchored during hard cornering. A central tunnel divides the cabin,
topped by a floor-mounted shifter that falls naturally to hand. The
three-spoke steering wheel, a hallmark of early '70s GM design,
provides a direct connection to the front wheels. The dashboard
houses a classic array of gauges, including a large central
tachometer and speedometer, flanked by smaller readouts for fuel,
oil pressure, and water temperature. An AM/FM radio sits ready to
provide the soundtrack for your drive.
The star of the show is the 350 cubic inch LT1 V8. This
high-revving small block churns out 255 horsepower, making it the
last of the C3 generation's most potent engines. Power flows
through a Muncie 4-speed manual transmission, creating an engaging
connection between driver and machine. The powertrain sits in a
chassis featuring independent front suspension, transverse leaf
springs in the rear, and disc brakes at all four corners. This
setup delivers impressive acceleration and confident handling.
