Thank you, I get lots of thumbs up. My 21 year old son, had never seen this body style. Neither has the kids in my neighborhood, they call it the race car. It gets my adrenalin pumping every time I drive it!

Sweet looking ride, just be careful pulling into parking stalls as wheel stops and curbs are not a Corvette's friend. I always back in.

That is a good looking car. I can see why it gets attention in your neighborhood.

The body, paint and interior all look in great shape.

I LOVE that color combo! It's a sweet looking 77 at that. How about some more details? Oh, and I love that it's a 4 spd too.

Thats a reeeeeal nice looking 77 you have there. Very clean. I like the horn button and tele lock being that finish instead of painted. You have enough keys there? Enjoy that car !

I like the stainless horn button that only the early production 77's had.

Keep the luggage rack. That and the horn button are one year only's. Also the master brake cylinder if you still have it (gold) only came with the 77's. The horn button was a recall and was replaced with the black one. The luggage rack was from factory. ALL other years they were dealer installed options.
