1972 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray — Matching Numbers 350 V8, Pewter Silver, T-TopsWhy This Car Is SpecialThe 1972 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray occupies a specific and well-understood place in C3 history. It was the last model year before federally mandated bumper standards began to reshape the car's appearance, and the last year Chevrolet used the traditional gross horsepower rating system before switching to the lower net figures in 1973. That context matters to collectors, because the 1972 Corvette is widely regarded as one of the cleaner, less-compromised examples of the C3 generation.Chevrolet built 20,496 Corvettes for the 1972 model year, split between coupes and convertibles. This is a coupe, and it carries the original 350 cubic inch small block V8 rated at 200 horsepower — a number that reflects the new SAE net rating standard Chevrolet began using that year, not a reduction in actual output. The engine is numbers-matching, meaning the suffix code on the block corresponds to the correct 1972 Corvette application. For buyers who care about authenticity and long-term value, that is a significant detail.The exterior is Pewter Silver — a color that reads differently in different light, moving from a warm gray to something closer to a metallic taupe depending on the angle. It pairs well with the blue interior and gives this particular car a subtle, understated presence compared to the brighter colors the Corvette was also available in that year.The VIN on this car decodes to confirm it was built at the St. Louis assembly plant, which was the only facility producing Corvettes at the time. The 'K' in the engine position of the VIN confirms the 350/200hp LT-1-adjacent base small block application with automatic transmission, consistent with the TH400 documented on this car.Features List- Matching numbers 350ci 200hp V8- Turbo-Hydramatic TH400 3-speed automatic transmission- Removable T-tops- Four-wheel disc brakes- Power steering- Power brakes- Air conditioning- Dual exhaust- Factory gauges (fuel, water temp, oil pressure, battery, clock)- 4-barrel carburetor- AM/FM radio- Bucket seats- Center console- Rally wheels- BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires- Clean undercarriageMechanicalThe 350 cubic inch V8 under this hood is the car's original engine, and it is wearing its correct Corvette-spec red valve covers and chrome air cleaner lid. The 4-barrel carburetor feeds through a single round chrome air cleaner — a period-correct presentation that judges and detail-oriented buyers will recognize immediately. The engine bay retains factory-correct components including the original emissions sticker and the Delcotron alternator typical of 1972 production.The TH400 Turbo-Hydramatic 3-speed automatic was a well-regarded transmission in its day and remains a durable, proven unit. It was a popular choice among buyers who wanted the Corvette experience without the effort of a manual — and it was not a decontented option. The TH400 was used across GM's performance lineup and is known for handling power reliably. The console shifter operates through a gate, and the indicator panel is visible and intact in the photos.Four-wheel disc brakes were standard on every 1972 Corvette, one of the features that set the car apart from virtually every other American production vehicle of the era. Power-assisted braking and power steering were both optioned on this car, making it a comfortable driver rather than a track-day weapon. The undercarriage photographs show a clean, well-preserved floor pan with no visible rust, solid exhaust routing, and suspension components that appear unmolested. The independent rear suspension — a Corvette hallmark since 1963 — is clearly visible and shows no signs of damage or major repair. BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires, a classic and appropriate choice for a car of this vintage, are fitted at all four corners.InteriorThe blue vinyl interior on this 1972 Corvette Stingray is a
