For Sale: 1977 Chevrolet Corvette in Morgantown, Pennsylvania

1977 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe

The 1977 Corvette was no longer badged with the "Sting Ray" script. Some early production 1977 Corvettes were still built with orange painted engines, but most have the new blue engines. A new crossed flag badge adorned the front of the hood between the headlights as well as on the fuel filler door. The glass roof panels that were announced this year were never delivered on a production car and the 500,000th Corvette rolled off the line this year.

For consignment, a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette coupe showing 36,533 miles, but the true miles are unknown. This numbers matching survivor has been garage kept and covered.

Due to modifications of the emissions control devices installed by the manufacturer, please check your local, state, and federal laws to determine if this vehicle is applicable for use on public highways in your area.*

Exterior
This car is dressed for a night out on the town and maybe an overnight with a luggage rack in back, based in now two stage Black and stock tail light configuration. While back here, we note twin exhaust pipes on each side and we can't wait to get underneath to see what's up! The 15-inch aluminum slot wheels are in great shape and wear 225/70R15 tires all around. The crossed flag emblem leads your eyes to the slightly cowled hood between rounded fenders, part of the coke bottle profile that's been compared to the feminine form consciously and unconsciously. Rocker panel trim creates some contrast and visual interest, and T-tops cap off a roof that includes flying buttress rear pillars. Overall, the paint and body are in excellent shape, especially at 10 feet. Imperfections include areas of checking paint on the fender and hood, crazing on the door, chipped paint in various places including wheel opening, flex cracks and touched up chips on the nose, random scratches, blemishes, and hazing.

Interior
Are we going black on black? Yes! The inside starts with black door panels with polished trim pieces and both doors present cleanly. The black leather seats are glossy and show minor patina via typical leather wrinkles. A three spoke steering wheel fronts the two gauge instrument panel and five other gauges, including a clock, are in the center stack, and it's all in very nice shape. The center console is clean and houses a ball handled shifter and electric window switches, all over plush black carpet that also neatly covers the rear cargo area. The car has A/C and an AM/FM radio, both of which occupy the center stack.

Drivetrain
Under the hood is a clean, numbers matching 350ci L82 V8, topped by a 4-barrel carburetor and mated to the numbers matching T10 4-speed manual transmission sending power to the rear axle and 3.70 gears with Positraction. The bay includes some chrome dress up including the brake reservoir cap, alternator, coil cover, and air cleaner housing.

Undercarriage
Clean underneath with minimal surface rust and only residual fluid in typical places. Our dual exhaust system is catalytic converter and muffler delete and terminates with black tailpipes leading to twin dual chrome tips, slightly upturned with a nod to European sports cars. Power disc brakes are employed on all four wheels and suspension consists of coil springs in front and Corvette's complex system of a frame mounted differential, tubular axle drive shafts, transverse strut rods, torque control arms, and transverse leaf spring in back.

Drive-Ability
The L82 starts up with a rip roaring exhaust note unburdened by what has been! The car then delivers a spirited ride around the test loop, running well, tracking straight, and providing the handling Vettes are notorious for. We note the clock and A/C are not working but all other functions work as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.

A clean interior, numbers matching drivetrain, and free breathing exhaust make this a noteworthy '77 to consider. Pop the t-tops, grab the stick, and go find a mountain road or coast highway to traverse! For those in the Midwest, amber waves of grain await as you blast by with your cross flagged beauty, the "shield of dreams!"
