Default F/S: 1977 Corvette Resto-Mod $13,000 - PA

Hi! I'm selling my 1977 Corvette. The car has come a LONG way and many of you here have seen the progress and have been instrumental in my success. Here are links to a few albums that show progress. There is also a description of work done below:

As for details, the car is a resto mod. It's non numbers matching. I built the motor. 11:1 compression, crane cam, stock crank, 4 bolt main, 1969 z28 Camaro heads, performer rpm intake, 650 performer carb. Close to 400HP. Brand new DeWitt aluminum radiator and electric fans, headers, Pypes aggressive exhaust with x pipe, rebuilt th350 trans with shift kit. It's a serious car. Looks and sounds awesome and runs great. ZERO rust on the birdcage or frame.

New tires, brakes, and rotors all around. All lines and hoses are new. You'll see from the pictures that there really isn't much on the car that isn't new! Paint is only 4 years old and looks awesome.

The interior is almost all new. It was red and I changed it all to black. Some panels are dyed. New upper dash pad, new lower passenger dash pad, I have a new drivers side but it's not installed. New Al Knoch seat covers and padding, new carpet, new door panels, new arm rest, new side panels on center console. The heat and AC controller and cable is new. All gages work except for speedo. I have the new cable to make it work. The old one was melted by the exhaust. It could stand to have the t-top inserts replaced on the interior because the are slightly warped in one corner but they work and look ok. All the AC components have been removed. Power windows work but could use new regulators as they move slow. New steering wheel with rare horn button still there. Tilt and tele column. Headlights have been rebuilt and work perfectly. Wipers also work. The car does not leak water as I have sealed it well. New windshield too.

The entire suspension and driveline has been replaced/rebuilt. This car handles great. Let me know what you think after seeing pictures and reading details here. Please e-mail me at enroberts22@gmail.com for answers to questions or more pictures. I'm asking $13,000. Thanks, Neal

In some pictures the paint looks silver, in others it looks like midway between silver and gunmetal - what colour is it?

It's Steel Cities Grey. You see more green in the overcast or darker shots. It's more silver in the sun.

Love the color, price and restomods. So can the AC be reinstalled or would the buyer have to purchase a new assembly?

A new assembly would be required. The controls, fan, ducts, and air box are still in place but nothing else is there today. I'd say something from Vintage Air would be the best option. All new and more reliable than a used factory compressor and parts from 1977!
