Default 1976 Production Break Down

I am a first time Vette owner. I bought an original 76 Paint code 33 (Green). I found that 2,038 were painted that color. The interior code is 322 Blue/Green Leather. Can anyone point me in a direction to find out how many came off the line with this combination?

I don't have my "corvette black book" with me - so I can't look anything up.
However, I don't think you will find the detailed numbers that you are looking for.
It should tell how many were 33 green, and how many had 322 interior, but
I don't think you will see numbers on combinations. Maybe, though.
I'll try to look this weekend.

The Corvette Black Book says there were 2038 Code 33 Dark Green 76's (the rarest color that year). The interior color combos do list a blue/green available, but there are no production numbers at all for that color. Here are the numbers that are given:

3258 black vinyl
7826 black leather
3256 buckskin vinyl
8946 buckskin leather
6184 dark brown leather
3281 firethorn vinyl
8259 firethorn leather

Add these up and that only comes to 41010 cars, well short of the 46558 built that year (5548 to be exact). At this point it is just a guess on how many cars were like yours. Mine is easier since it is a 56 (yellow) 19V (black vinyl) car.
