SELLER REMARKS: What’s cooler than a bright red Stingray with side pipes? How about a matching- numbers bright red Stingray with side pipes? Finished a few years ago, this Mille Miglia Red Corvette roadster is still the kind of car that makes people stop in their tracks when they see it. Distinctive, with a legendary reputation for performance, C3 ragtops still belong on the A-list. And with values steadily moving upwards, now is the time to invest in a matching-numbers example like this. It’s easy to convince yourself it’s the right choice, since the bodywork is excellent, with none of the usual issues older Corvettes seem to demonstrate, and a great shine that still looks awesome. 1972 was a very good year for the Stingray, with chrome bumpers fore and aft, and that neat ducktail spoiler molded into the rear fascia, and this one sports the added benefit of a big block hood, adding an aggressive look that’s also functional. Details are quite good, including correct badges, bright chrome, and nicely finished eggcrate grills up front. What else would you expect to find inside a red Corvette other than black leather? Restored at the same time as the rest of the car, it remains in very good overall condition with only minor signs of use, but of course, who can resist the siren call of the Stingray? New door panels and carpets were installed as well, and show no UV damage or dryness, and even the dash pad remains unblemished. All the original gauges are functional, with bright, crisp markings and a Kenwood AM/FM/cassette stereo has been added to enhance the driving experience. A black vinyl convertible top completes the package, offering a crystal clear rear window and with a little practice, you should be able to master folding it from the driver’s seat at a red light. Open air fun is always seconds away in a Corvette! The engine is the original, numbers-matching 350 cubic inch V8 backed by a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission. It shows quite well, considering it has been driven and enjoyed, and there’s ample evidence that someone invested their time in keeping it wiped off and well-maintained. It starts quickly with a wonderful bark from the side pipes, and details like the chrome air cleaner and finned valve covers let you know that this is more than just transportation—it’s a Corvette. Underneath, it’s extremely clean with no signs of rust or abuse, and it’s amazing how much free space there is under there when the exhaust is moved outside. Power steering and power 4-wheel disc brakes were standard equipment in ’72, making the Corvette easy to drive, and the quick-shifting transmission offers that great “point and shoot” driving style that will make you look forward to crowded highways. Four original Rally wheels wear appropriately-sized 215/65/15 BF Goodrich T/A radials. There aren’t many better ways to enjoy summer than from behind the wheel of a Corvette, and few cars will pay you back like a matching-numbers roadster. Call today! Price: US $28,995.00
