I have a '72 factory air convertible. February built and delivered to Jerry's Chevrolet in Baltimore. Originally white with deluxe saddle interior, now painted Brands Hatch Green with a tan convertible top.
Jan '70 car 1889. It's a real nice driver and has good authenticated docs; build sheet and protecto plate. Engine authenticated as original. Had no smog when I got it, but trans, rear, carb, alternator, water pump, starter, distributor, glass, jack all are dated/cast/stamped correct to the car. The carb in the picture is a new 4555 3972121 repro made by Holley, original is on the shelf. DSCN1919 by toylman, on Flickr

Reason: updated picture
There is nothing like that view looking over those fenders and hood.That sound of that ZR1 is amazing...We need more video and sounds of that acceleration... BTW is that Dans ZR1 ?

Yep - that's me - wasn't flogging her that hard (my 8-year old son was in the passenger seat) but you get the sound/sensation from the solid lifters, M22 and 4.56 combo.
And no more progress on the original owner outside of shipping verification from NCRS. Guaranty Chevrolet, San Diego in July '70.
72 LT-1 convertible, low options, but possibly a one-only car with a tank sticker proving it was a 'paint-trim override' with Targa blue paint and Saddle interior. Normally, you could only get black or blue interior with Targa blue paint.

4.56?
What's the top speed of that car, will it even hit 100mph?

Here's my 71 LT1 convertible, all numbers match, including the M22 transmission, except the paint. I have owned her for 12 years, love the high revving vette
Thanks for the math - Saves me from wringing her out!
I'd really like to know why the original owner ordered the car w/4.56's. It's all original drive train, so it must have been a road racer, drag car, hill climber or auto crosser. Or all of the above.

Definitely not long-haul cruiser!
For those who have a LT-1 with the Transistor Ignition, could you send me a picture of where the TI amp/box is mounted or if not tell me location of where it is mounted....thanks.
Shark attack,I have seen a few 72's Targa Blue with saddle and they are trim override like yours.Great color combo,can you post a pic of your trig tag ? thanks Jerry
