1972 CHEVROLET CORVETTE CUSTOM COUPE

Details

This custom Corvette was initially built in a 48-hour time frame in front of many thousands of website viewers. The project started with a 68,000-actual-mile Arizona Corvette. Since the initial build, the car has been continuously refined – having accumulated dozens of race victories, design and engineering awards and top-five finishes. It won the 2017 Optima Ultimate Street Car Challenge in Bowling Green as well as the Goodguys Autocross National Series Championship for 2017. Completely street-legal, this Pro-Touring Corvette features a custom-built Lingenfelter 649hp 427ci LS7 dry sump engine with forged internals and titanium valves. Engine and drivetrain specifications include Holley EFI, C&R radiator, Tremec T56 Magnum 6-speed manual transmission with overdrive, Quartermaster triple disc clutch and Currie 9' IRS rear end. The complete RideTech Track 1 suspension system includes billet aluminum spindles, tubular StrongArm control arms and high-tech Instinct electronic adaptive shock absorbers with electronic traction control. Like modern supercars, the electronic shocks self-adjust to changing dynamics, including soft dampening for comfortable street driving and firm dampening for high-performance driving. Additional specifications include massive Wilwood disc brakes with 6-piston forged calipers, Vintage Air, custom

Classic Instruments gauges, a Kicker stereo, BFGoodrich Rival tires and Forgeline wheels. The screaming yellow paint is accented by custom flares, custom LED and projector headlights, custom-fabricated rear spoiler, front spoiler, gas fill trim, side vents and C7 Corvette Z06-style hood vents. The 48-Hour Corvette has just been freshly repainted and serviced. The car is selling with minimal decals installed for a more street-friendly appearance; however, a fresh set of race livery decals from the 2017 season are included with the sale to preserve the car's winning history.
