    For sale is my 72 stage-1 convertible Zone car. All numbers matching. I believe this is the lowest body number zone car known as info collected today. This car has had a complete nut & bolt rotisserie restoration. This car has Not had or needed any rust repair. Many NOS parts have been used for restoration. All legendary interior and new top. The engine and trans has been rebuilt. The engine has many upgrades that you do not see, arp bolts, forged pistons, smoothed rods, balanced, port matched, high flow valves, pac springs, PC seals, true roller, ported timing cover, balanced pump, AMP upgrades, messaged ceramic coated original exhaust manifolds and so much more. The stage-1 carb was rebuilt & replated like new. Original power brake booster was replated and the master was rebuilt using stainless sleeve, as were the calipers. Full stainless exhaust with original N25 tips. All brake and fuel lines are stainless. Just too much to type it all. Original T3 headlights. Radio and all speakers have been rebuilt. The radio was upgraded to use a 1/8 plug for Aux play. Calf car until I had it shipped to me.

    Some changes I have made.
    Tach, Original 72 GM in place of 24 Hr clock
    AM/FM in place of AM
    NOS boxed rear lower control arms & sway bar

    We'd talked about this car privately before, and its still in the back of my mind. Deciding if I want to sell my 70 Stage and go this direction. Love the pictures! It looks like a stunner.
