This 1972 Stingray is currently undergoing restoration and is 75-80% complete. NOT numbers matching... Sold "as is". About this Vette:This was the last year of the front & rear chrome bumpers. No AC, No Power Windows.The original colors were Ontario Orange w/Tan Interior.The exterior is not Steel Cities Grey, it's the Dark Metallic Grey that Chevy used on the 2001 trucks.The new paint has been professionally done after removing all of the previous paint (had been repainted 2x). The car has not been driven and has been garage stored with fitted flannel cover (included) since new paint and looks great.Receipts for prep, paint & replace windshield totaled $8,645.Between Ecklers and Corvette Central I've spent more than $7500 in parts, with an additional $1000 or so going to other sources.The original hood was replaced with a "Long" L-88 Hood, eliminating the air actuated wiper door and providing extra clearance in the event a Big Block was desired.Currently in the process of installing new wiring harnesses including all new bulbs and proper fuses.The Weather Stripping and Interior has NOT yet been reinstalled.Windshield is new (professionally installed), side and rear windows are original but are in good shape.The 350 cu/in motor is not original (recently replaced, I don't know the actual milage but it looks to be fairly new and ran strong). Tach and Speedo cables were replaced since I had the dash out.The Exhaust System aft of the headers was removed with the intent of replacing the entire system utilizing side pipes (current headers are in place but planned on replacing them due to fitment requirements of the side exhaust. (The Side Exhaust Conversion Panel replaced the stock rear panel prior to paint)The Fuel Tank was removed/discarded and will need replacement. The Battery Box was re-glassed and a new battery will be required.The Wheels are Center Line 8 x15 with BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires in good shape (spare tire needs to be replaced).

The Odometer Reading on the Speedometer shows 34457. I don't think this car has 134,457 miles on it due to the shape it's in but I don't claim the milage is 34,457 either... Probably somewhere in between. If you don't have the time, talent or means to finish this restoration, it's probably not the car for you. However, this will be a bargain for the person who can see it through.
