Default Bryer Blue

Does anybody have a car thats the colour of Bryar Blue? I would love to see what it looks like. It's the original colour of my 72.

Bryar Blue is a great vette color and a very rare color in 72.

FYI: Out of 27004 total Vettes built in 72, only 1617 were Bryar Blue according to the Black Book (only about 6%).

I had a '72 LT-1 4-speed with H.D. M-22 (yes, M-22 fine spline), convertible with both tops that sold about 10-years ago--it was Bryar Blue with white convertible top/ black hard top. One of those rare barn finds--sitting in a basement garage for 15-years/ man who sold it had owned it since 1973--he bought it from his next door neighbor. I got the car for nothing and all it needed was a good detailing, new tires and oil change. Sold it for $30K at a car show after a guy chased me about it for 2-years!

Absolute prettiest blue I've ever seen and I'm not that much of a blue color admirer. If debating whether to go back with that color or not--don't, you won't be sorry.

I have a 68 Corvette Bronze now---my motto, go with the unusual and rare colors. At the shows, you'll appreciate it.
