Sadly this is the last video on this 1972 Corvette I rescued from a field early last year. I have to sell them in order to fund another to bring back to life. If you are interested in the car, please send me an email at

If interested in a TheCorvetteBen KZfaq Channel window decal, please send $5 through PayPal to Benjamin.friend56@yahoo.com. If you are international, please contact me first about price!

I'm one of the 5% that more often than not watch til the end and have been watching your channel off and on for a number of years. And rarely respond to anyone's videos unless I'm buying something. Happy I've made this far after my stroke and will be contacting you via email. I'm always late to the KZfaq parties but still wanted to give you 👍 on the new shop and I would really enjoy watching you get after the interior. Kind regards, Randy

Thanks for saving that Corvette, and congrats on the big steps in your life. I am old, and want a C3, but at almost 6-4 I am afraid I am too tall. Yes, want to see the shop stuff. I built my dream shop 15 years ago and now we are moving, between the cars, tools, and parts this isn't going to be a fun summer, LOL. all the Best to you. As I said, you give me hope.

I for one want to applaud you for essentially saving a classic Vette. Some would have looked at that car as it sat in the field and thought "parts car" at best. You make a 3 into a 6 or 7. Now it's a car again, and someone could either make a real decent summer cruiser out of it. Nicely done, sir.

YES on the shop build. I never could afford a Corvette, married had three kids and that's were all my money went. But don't regret the way my life has gone so far. But, I did get to drive my Air Force buddies 1972 Corvette once back in !973. It was gold and 4 speed. Had a lot of fun. So watching your video's helps me remember those days. Keep up the great content maybe one day you tube will really pay off.

Congratulation! You got a dream shop I have been dreaming about for 30 years. And you really deserve it. In Switzerland you could not buy a lot and build a storage place this size for less than 300 000$. This Corvette is exactly the type of car for a man who can mainly do body work (like me) The grat fact is that most of the mechanical problems or the car are sorted out. If I were not drowned in projects and I could afford it, I would love to own it.

Yes, if I were the new owner, 45k including price for the car, will be a new 1972 Vette. White paint with a pearl in it. Body work needed. pull motor- rebuild it, mid-level performance cam, all new suspension parts upgrades, paint and rehose/new wire motor mount area. clean and paint to look new again. Fix that crack on top of dash, repair and replace t-panels on top. new gas tank, performance motor parts. At least have electronic ignition. Fuel injected Holley would be another nice. Electric fan/aluminum radiator... Pull carpet inside and install dynamat. dynamat doors/firewall inside. cut the road noise from those tires down... All new wiring harnesses to complete car.... Fix middle console if needed, put in cd radio if wanted... anything else? Windows need to be fixed if not go up or down... everything needs to be tight fitted.

_Thank you Ben for saving this 1972 Corvette t-top (as we called them back in the day). The bottom line: your asking price is reasonable for a driver quality C3 that has so much potential. Now about your recent acquisition and the new shop, congratulations. (I think a lift or two will be a nice addition to make wrenching on customers' cars, and your own a dream come true). Best of luck on the property purchase. You and your wife, and your beautiful family deserve it! Looking forward to the buildout of the four-stall garage/mechanic shop, and subsequent videos._
