72 LT1 numbers matching ZR1 coded eng
Up for sale is a very nice 1972 Corvette LT1 in Bryer Blue with Black Leather interior.
I cannot update the title of this add, but wanted to clarify some new findings on my part. After some of the discussion here, I removed the paint from the engine block and took a picture of the pad stamp to send to Drew Papsun. He looked at it and verified that it is a restamp, not the orig factory stamping on the block. I was told that the engine was rebuilt with the orig block, not another block. so its possible that its the orig block that got decked and restamped, but this cannot be verified obviously.
So, in that regard please consider this car a verified LT1 with a numbers matching transmission, but a rebuilt engine. It still is the same great looking and driving car and will make a great addition to anyone's stable. sorry for the orig confusion as I am new to the corvette world. I was told one thing and the block does have the vin stamped on it, unfortunately its just not the orig factory stamp. Just trying to be honest and give the most information that I have on the car.
please let me know if you have any other questions.
The car is in great shape. It looks, drives, and turns heads everywhere it goes. I also have all of the documentation for the restoration. Let me know if you have any questions.

1972 Corvette LT-1 Coupe
The Bryar Blue paint is in good condition for its age. The odometer is working and shows 85,448 original miles. The exterior trim is all original right down to the rims and center caps. The black interior has been restored and is in excellent condition. The frame, radiator support and suspension pieces are solid and rust free. The vacuum system for the headlights and wiper arm door is all new and a new gas tank has been installed.
A complete mechanical restoration was performed by ex-Richard Petty and Richard Childress car builder Rick Mann. The engine was balanced and blueprinted and filled with a Callies crank, Eagle Rods and 10:1 Speed Pro pistons. The top end consist of a Comp Cams hydraulic flat tappet cam with Brodix aluminum heads and Aluminum Roller Rockers. The original factory high performance aluminum intake is topped with a correct number Holley #6239 780cfm 4150 series carburetor. An MSD tach drive distributor and ignition box have been installed as upgrades for the ignition system.
The numbers matching M-21 close ratio transmission and posi-traction rear end have been rebuilt and all suspension bushings have been replaced. A complete book of restoration details and reciepts are available.
This is a very nice car that should be driven and enjoyed. It is not a trailer queen but a car you would enjoy driving to the car shows. It is a numbers matching investment grade Corvette that will most certainly increase in value over time. The early C3 Corvettes have skyrocketed in value over the past five years. Buy yours before they reach the level of the mid-year Corvettes.

I approved this thread out of the 2 you posted because it was later and the price was lower, but I think the other one had photos. Let me know if you wanted to keep the other one.

No problem. to be honest, I'm new to the corvette and classic car stuff in general. I was lead to believe when I bought it that everything was the way it was supposed to be. after some of the discussions here, I started to dig more into it to make sure one way or the other.
and unfortunately I found out that the stamp was not a factory stamp, but a reproduction stamp. so, I of course wanted to update and make sure everything was correct in my add and not misrepresented in any way.
