Description

Merit Cars presents this 1972 Corvette C3 Stingray, an honest and enjoyable driver from the final year of the chrome bumper Corvette. Finished in the original color combination of Classic White (972) with Dark Saddle (421) interior, the car retains its classic early-C3 appearance. Power comes from a 350 cubic inch (5.7L) V8 4-bolt main engine with a 4-barrel carburetor producing 160HP, paired with an automatic transmission. The car has been maintained in good driving condition and starts easily, runs smoothly, and shifts nicely. The fiberglass body is intact with no tears or damage. The paint is older and shows age throughout. The interior is in decent condition with seats that appear to have been recovered and remain in good shape. The underside is very clean and the frame appears straight and solid. Headlights illuminate properly, though the vacuum system that raises and lowers them is currently not functioning. A large folder of invoices from 2003–2007 accompanies the car, documenting significant maintenance work during that period. Overall this is an honest and enjoyable entry into classic Corvette ownership — a good driver that can be enjoyed as is or gradually improved. Importantly, 1972 was the final year of the iconic chrome bumpers front and rear, making these cars increasingly collectible among C3 enthusiasts. Price: $12,950
