The appearance changes were again minimal for 1972. The 1972 Corvette was the last to feature front and rear chrome
bumpers, a bright "egg crate" grill, side fender grills and the removable rear window. This was the last year for the RPO-
LT1 and RPO-ZR1, although the ZR1 code was again used in 1990 and the LT1 designated a new base engine in 1992.
Base Engine: 350ci V8 200hp
Engine Options: 350ci 255hp, 454ci 270hp
The ZR1 included the LT1 Engine, M21 Transmission, heavy-duty power brakes, transistor ignition, special aluminum
radiator, and special springs, shocks, and front and rear stabilizer bars. 1972 ZR1's generally had no fan shrouds..
