Default '72 Bryar Blue/blue #'s?

anyone know where I can find out how many 1972 Bryar blue/blue convertibles were made? I looked on Idaho, color production #'s weren't on there.

a friend of mine just got one, 4sp 350, #'s matching, it's a very clean car

I you find out I'd love to know how many Bryar Blue LT1 Coupes were made.

Unfortunately the best I think we will find out, which you probably already know, is:

Bryar Blues: 1617 (coupes and verts)
Coupes Made: 20496
verts Made 6508

To my knowledge there is no way to tell the split of 1617 between coupes and convertibles. Taken it as a percent (32%) would get you 517 but that is only a long shot.

I looked at one like you've described in Michigan last spring.
The owner claimed that only 8 had been built with that color combo.
Unfortunately, I can't recall what he based these figures on.

thanks, sure appreciate the responses.

I came to visit my friends here in Va for Christmas, pulled my vette into the garage as usual and saw a vette under a car cover off to the left. Didn't think much of it 'cause he had a white 72...then I saw the Briar Blue/blue int and was like "holy cow batman!"

My friend has one of those blue on blue '72 convertibles with the 350. It's for sale for $16K.
