Not sure you can promote your car in this section but in any case your ad is wrong. There were 7982 cars built with manual transmission. No '77 Corvette came with an AM only radio. The floor mats are not factory.

A "Thursday" sale with 'no reserve' is risky. Wish you luck...but I don't have a good feeling about it.

Do I see headers? I consider a survivor untouched.

Don't L82s have two air inlets to the air cleaner? What is that chrome thing over the distributor? Where are the front fender badges?

Looks like the A/C system has been converted over to 134A also no A.I.R pump system?

Apparently there are many different definitions of "survivor".

Hi,
I think with a small 's' any car that hasn't been crushed can be described as a survivor!
Regards,
Alan

Unfortunately I fear that the OP is going to take a bath at B-J with this one! It would be a great driver for someone looking for a single car, but, often the buyers at B-J are not looking for 'deals'; they tend to be there looking for top notch cars for collections, etc.

My fear is that the bidding will be low and someone will jump in with the intent to resell it on a deal lot. My feeling is it will go for well less than true market value, likely around $5,000. I hope I'm wrong, but, B-J buyers are not the right target audience for unrestored driver quality cars.

No reserve is going to bite you in the keyster. 76-81 Those cars have very little collector value.
