1972 Corvete Convertible - Numbers Matching (no reserve)

1972 Chevrolet Corvette Description

No reserve auction.

I have a nice driver quality 1972 Convertible Corvette. It isn’t perfect, but very nice for a driver car. A couple of highlights:

· 1972 is the last year of dual chrome bumpers (helps with collectors)

· Numbers matching original engine (350) (helps with collectors)

· Both a matching paint hardtop and a new black convertible top

o Hardtop available separately for an additional $500

· Nice showing red paint (original color blue)

· New carpet, door panels and stereo (retro look with modern sound)

· Manual brakes, manual steering

· Lights come up and down as they should

· Several thousand spend in mechanical work over the last two years to get it running as it should

· Good tread on the tires

· Very nice after market stereo; designed to look like the original

· Frame in good shape, normal surface rust that could use wire brushing

· Appraised value of $30k (I have the appraisal)

· I currently have $27,700 in the car (I have all receipts)

A couple of flaws worth noting. The soft top doesn’t align with the windows, about a 1/8” gap in spots. It leaks a little oil. Nothing material, normal for a 1970s Corvette. Horn does not work. Retractable seat belts don’t lock, have the originals to replace them or they simply need to be installed correctly.
