What a gorgeous classic Corvette. The color is stunning and a unique color that you dont see often. The interior is perfect and the color goes so well with the gorgeous exterior color. Cant get any better than that amazing 454 4spd with the bell and whistles this classic has. Just a beautiful classic Corvette that I wish was in my garage.

I grew up as a kid in elementary school drooling over the early C3 Corvettes. I had a classmate in third grade 1973 who's brother came to school and parked his 72 454 Targa Blue Coupe on the lot outside our class window. I wasn't paying too much attention as long as he was there. My eyes were glued to that car. I thought someday I will own a Corvette. They were already on my mind and a huge fixation of mine. I couldn't wait to see another one.

i enjoy seeing these original vehicles that haven't received upgrades and mods. it gives you an idea of what was for sale. in late 71, imagine the 454 powered fleetwood sedan deville with power everything that six thousand dollars got you. this is fibre glass, and you do all the shifting yourself!
I like the original cars too, because it's fun to see exactly what they looked like when they were new at the time of sale. Like a imaginary journey back to the time year of the car :-)
Hi Lou ,Enjoy your car videos.I also have a 72 coupe restored in Elkhart green with original 350 here in Melbourne Australia.If you ever want to come down under there's plenty of car nuts here to meet and film.
Hi John Hall, Glad to read you're enjoying the videos :-) You have a cool car too! Thank you for your kind invitation. I have not been to Australia, yet... :-) It would be fun to travel there to video cars. Lou
Ah the memories. My brother had a white 72 convertible with those three 454 digits fastened to that power bulge hood. Red hound's tooth interior. The braided spark plug wires and chrome distributor shield. The tilt/telescopic spoke steering wheel. It was one bad ass car. Especially for a teenage kid who drove a hand me down Biscayne that used more oil than gas. Yeah, the first thing my brother did was remove the smog pump and plug the exhaust manifolds to my dad's objection. I thought the battery was behind the passenger seat. He dropped the biggest J.C.Penny's lifetime battery that would fit into it. We found out about the car alarm the hard way. My brother was under the hood when I inserted the key and turned it on, After a short time delay it sounded off. Yeah that was an awesome car. I loved the way it would squat when you gave it some gas. It was the only other car, besides a friends brother's GTO, that would pin you to the seat when you opened it up. Sadly they're all gone now. I sure miss them.

@@loucostabile Hi Lou, Thanks for the reply and showing these great cars. Needless to say I have a soft spot for Corvettes. I could ramble all day about the 72. I wish I could find one but it's like trying to recover my youth. Unfortunately I don't have a good place to house one and it would be a crime to leave it in the weather. BTW - That was a beautiful example of a great car. Take care - Jim

Hi Louis, The company phone # & website with inventory is in the description of this video, however the video was done in 2014, so I'd guess the car has found a new Care Taker, Lou

Umm you don’t know where the battery is... they never put the batter under the hood until 1984. Omg dude Also I own a 79 coupe with only 66k on it, all original and even the paint. That sir is not the original paint job on that car, it’s to smooth. Also there is no over spray marks on it either. The interior is just not up to par in it either, meaning it all wore out for only having 33k on the odometer. The paint is show quality but that’s it.

Hi Joe Rockhead, Really Joe, don't hold back, so what do you think about the orange paint on this car? :-) Hope you see many more non-orange cars on this Channel, Stay well, Lou
@@loucostabile Lol, I was just joking around. The the '68 thru '73 vettes have always been my main dream car. This '72 is absolutely beautiful. If it was up to me I'd go with silver with black trim or black though. Thanks for the video.
Lou Costabile , so true. Thanks for the reply. Fortunately, performance is back today and our vehicles are better than ever while still meeting emission regulations. 😃
I Mentioned My Daughter Tracy lot of times she has a 1972 Corvette and hers is Bright Yellow with Black Interior . Believe me she is Corvette Crazy and she will never Part with it lol
