There is something special about a C3 Corvette. Its long,
undulating hood, unmistakable Coke-bottle shape, and short,
windswept rear set it apart from not only every other Corvette
generation but every other car ever made. This particular 1972
Chevrolet Corvette comes to us fully repainted in this majestic
burgundy. Chrome bumpers, versatile and fun T-tops, and a rear
luggage rack are just a few of the features that make this
generation of Corvette an object of desire for so many enthusiasts
around the world.
Inside we find what was originally a Saddle vinyl interior that has
been converted to this beautiful black motif. Two big gauges sit
front and center of the driver, just beyond a power-assisted
three-spoke steering wheel with a 7,000-rpm tach on the right and a
160-mph speedometer on the left. A five-pod gauge cluster sits atop
the center stack, while an upgraded Alpine AM/FM/Cassette stereo
handles the soundtrack through the custom speakers in the rear
package area behind the seats.
Underneath its signature front-hinged hood, we find a 327
cubic-inch V-8 engine. Topped with a single four-barrel Holley
carburetor and Edelbrock intake manifold, this small-block does
away with spent gases via a set of long-tube headers and dual
exhaust. Power is routed through a tried-and-true four-speed manual
transmission before heading out to fifteen-inch Rallye wheels shod
in 235/60R-15 Roadmaster tires.

Riding on a spring, shock, and sway bar front suspension with a
mono leaf spring setup in back, this 1972 Chevrolet Corvette was
set up to handle twists and turns almost as well as the
straightaways. Four-wheel power disc brakes rein in speed whenever
necessary. If you love the swoopy, undeniable allure of the C3 as
much as many of us do, this is the one you've been waiting for.
