This 1977 Corvette is one of the nicest original untouched Survivor cars that you will find. Everything on this car is virtually untouched and in excellent condition. Only one repaint and done very nice a few years ago. All door jambs, hood lips, are all untouched original paint, and with all decals, labels, weatherstrips, etc. You cannot really appreciate this car until you see and drive it! Finished in Medium Red with Black Deluxe Leather Interior. No-Hit body as well. All Window glass is original and correctly date coded including the rare rear window defogger glass. The aluminum wheels show very nice and we just installed new BF/Goodrich Radial TA's White Lettered this week. The size is the correct one for the car in P225/70R15. The spare tire and wheel is an original one and still has the label on it. The paint still shows very well but is not perfect. Body fit is as nice as they come. The chassis is untouched and original including the original exhaust system and catalytic converter with the exception of new mufflers recently installed. All original frame in excellent no rust condition, original spare tire tub, no dents in frame as you will see in most of these cars due to a post lift or heavy jack. All interior is near perfect with no tears, rips, or even flaws. The dash pad, all instruments, console, seat belts, carpeting, all look as if it is new but is all original. All indicator lights on dash work, a/c still works and blows cold, headlights open and close properly, just as it left the factory in 1977! Original jack and lug wrench untouched, T-Top Leather storage bags still where they are suppose to be, even the strap that holds the T-tops in place behind the seat still there. You can clearly see the factory red paint in the rear storage compartment area along with factory overspray underneath fender wells as it should be. Chassis markings and inspection markings, labels, are still visible. The front and rear bumpers are very nice and soft, unlike most that are brittle and cracked due to improperly stored and weathered. This Corvette has definitely been cared for and stored properly with minimal deterioration. I have seen Corvettes with even less miles than this one and do not look as good! Excellent Investment car that is still affordable. Corvettes like these are fast appreciating as there is not many left.

Interesting 1977 Corvette Facts:
This was the last year for the straight back window
A new console held heater and a/c controls and accepted standard Delco radios due to its increased depth. A new steering column positioned the steering wheel two inches closer to the instrument panel to provide more of an "arms out" driving position., and easier entry and exit.
The interior rearview mirror was relocated from above the windshield to the windshield itself.
Headlight dimmer switch and windshield wiper controls were moved and located on the steering column stalks.
Leather Seats were standard
The factory alarm system that was located on the drivers side front fender was moved in mid production to the drivers side door lock
Very early 1977 Model Corvettes engine blocks were painted Chevrolet Orange and Mid to late production all were painted blue as this car is.

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray
Fri, 25 Oct 2013We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.
Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
