1972 Corvette ZR1 to be Auctioned in Houston

Here’s a beauty worth marveling at for a few minutes … or a lifetime if you’ve got the cash.

This 1972 Corvette ZR1 Coupe, which will be up for grabs in Houston in April at the Mecum Auctions, is one of only 20 special edition models produced that year. This rare classic is powered by the LT-1 350 cu-in (5.7-liter) V8 with a four-speed transmission.

The ’72 ‘Vette also comes with all of the key documentation true collectors revel over including two documented tank stickers, an owner’s manual packet, ownership history and NCRS Shipping Data Report.

Even better, this gorgeous green beast only has 16,300 miles.

With this ’72 ZR1 and the ’67 Corvette we covered last week, it appears that the weekend of April 10th in Houston is shaping out to be the place for classic ‘Vette fans.
