Thanks Punisher,

I checked with my VIN # about 5 times and for some unknown reason my VIN # is not in the registry.

Cars are entered on the registry by an owner who feels like entering his info. I believe cars entered in all the registries are a small % of the actual cars.

I'm not sure about your questions, but a Corvette Black Book will answer a lot of general questions, like trim tag codes, etc.

According to GM Heritage they "might" have a copy of your invoice as they list year 1977. This is what I received for my 78. Good luck.

Worth the cost if they have your VIN in their records.
