The car is totally solid with excellent lines and no rust issues. It is ready to be used and enjoyed. This Corvette has an interesting and unique history. According to the previous owner he was the second owner. He told us that he purchased the car from the original owner in 2000, who was the owner of a local Chevrolet dealership, Hirlinger Chevrolet. We have a copy of the title from 2000 that shows the previous owner to be Leonard Hirlinger. Leonard Hirlinger was the founder of Hirlinger Chevrolet. The original badge from Hirlinger Chevrolet & Oldsmobile is still on the back of the car. The original owner being a Chevrolet dealer could be one of the reasons this 1977 Corvette has a very special and exceptionally rare color combination. The car is finished in the beautiful color combination of White (10) over Medium Red (722) with White seats, door panels, quarter panel trim and headliners. Even many Corvette enthusiasts may think that this two-tone interior is incorrect or that someone changed out the seats and trim at a later time. Skeptics would be correct that two-tone interior was not a standard interior option and those looking online or in standard books like Corvette Black Book would find that they do not show that two tone interiors were available in 1977. However, this is the correct and original color scheme as verified by the codes on the trim tag pictured in this ad. It is true that the trim tag shows the code 722, which is for all red interior. Two-tone interiors were available only as an override to the normal interior options. When ordered new the dealer would have had to order the car from the factory with the ZP2 process code to override the standard interior color. The Regular Production Option (RPO) code "ZJ1" was used to specify the white seats, door panels, quarter panel trim.
