Welcome to the herd. Maybe you know. Is a 77 considered a "Stingray" or not?

Oh no, not this one again...please search, you'll find an avalanche of posts on the "Stingray" discussion. It's a dead horse that has been beat into a greasy crater.

I love every year Corvette but the 76-77`s are the first Corvettes I remember seeing as a kid.Thats what hooked me on Corvettes since I was about 7-8 years old.Looking at the dash and seeing 160mph on the speedo...that kind of thing stays with you as a kid.
