Vehicle Description
1986 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe
Chevrolet has been pumping out Corvettes for 66 years, building
about 1.5 million of them since 1953. That makes the 'Vette one of
the most popular sports cars of all time. First- and
second-generation Corvettes were one of the first true collectible
cars of the modern era, and collecting Corvettes remains a global
phenomenon. More than just another two-seat sports car, the Vette
is an American icon. There's a good reason it's often referred to
as America's sports car.
For consignment we offer a 1986 version of the America's sports
car. An engine in the form of a 350ci V8, and a very nicely
preserved yellow exterior, performance handling, and an improved
fuel injection system are just a few of the upgrades included for
this year. 1 of 1,464 units produced in yellow for this year.
Exterior
All clean bright yellow painted fiberglass in good condition. Some
dulling in the paint and some areas of overspray, as well as
chipping and cracking of the paint are seen on the front driver's
quarter, driver's door, and passenger's door. Dual electric
controlled sport mirrors, and a smoked glass "targa" style
removable roof is seen. 16-inch fan blade with flat middle style
alloy wheel covers, wrapped in G force sport radials are bolted on
all 4 corners.
Interior
Gray checkered broadcloth inserts with darker gray cloth bolsters
in bucket form grace the inside of this Vette. The driver's seat
has some staining. A digital driver information system is seen on
the square design dash, as well as the 4-speed automatic
transmission shifter in the console. The seats flank a nifty
console glovebox with a yellow cloth Corvette badged embroidered
cover. This cover also seen with a sweeping checkered flag graphic.
Power windows, and power steering and a key fob remote access
button will get you into the rear storage area that has enough room
to take the bags for a long trip. Black carpeting appears in good
condition and shows fading to blue under the green house style rear
glass. Door panels are black vinyl and have a peppering of yellow
inserts to add contrast to their style.
Drivetrain
A 350ci V8 with electronic fuel injection can be viewed within an
original engine bay with the flip of the hood. All clean under here
with slight corrosion. Bolted on back is the 4-speed automatic
transmission. Keeping everything cool is an all electric fan
cooling system.
Undercarriage
Reasonably clean and rust free. C4 suspension is seen which
includes a posi trac rear, and fiberglass mono leaf spring setup is
on the front and rear.
Drive-Ability
Started right up and the digital dash came to life with all the
stats. Drives very smoothly, has plenty of power, and the targa
roof option when removed allows plenty of airflow. Solid handling,
and we are off to the races! Noted is the air conditioning blows
warm.
Overall a clean Corvette in seldom seen yellow. A 350ci engine
which runs well, and comfortable cloth interior. A few chips and
scratches in the paint, alloy wheels and plenty of convenience
options on this C4 Corvette.
