This 1977 Corvette is one of the nicest original untouched Survivor cars that you will find. Everything on this car is virtually untouched and in excellent condition. Only one repaint and done very nice a few years ago. All door jambs, hood lips, are all untouched original paint, and with all decals, labels, weatherstrips, etc. You cannot really appreciate this car until you see and drive it! Finished in Medium Red with Black Deluxe Leather Interior. No-Hit body as well. All Window glass is original and correctly date coded including the rare rear window defogger glass. The aluminum wheels show very nice and we just installed new BF/Goodrich Radial TA's White Lettered this week. The size is the correct one for the car in P225/70R15. The spare tire and wheel is an original one and still has the label on it. The paint still shows very well but is not perfect. Body fit is as nice as they come. The chassis is untouched and original including the original exhaust system and catalytic converter with the exception of new mufflers recently installed. All original frame in excellent no rust condition, original spare tire tub, no dents in frame as you will see in most of these cars due to a post lift or heavy jack. All interior is near perfect with no tears, rips, or even flaws. The dash pad, all instruments, console, seat belts, carpeting, all look as if it is new but is all original. All indicator lights on dash work, a/c still works and blows cold, headlights open and close properly, just as it left the factory in 1977! Original jack and lug wrench untouched, T-Top Leather storage bags still where they are suppose to be, even the strap that holds the T-tops in place behind the seat still there. You can clearly see the factory red paint in the rear storage compartment area along with factory overspray underneath fender wells as it should be. Chassis markings and inspection markings, labels, are still visible. The front and rear bumpers are very nice and soft, unlike most that are brittle and cracked due to improperly stored and weathered. This Corvette has definitely been cared for and stored properly with minimal deterioration. I have seen Corvettes with even less miles than this one and do not look as good! Excellent Investment car that is still affordable. Corvettes like these are fast appreciating as there is not many left.

Interesting 1977 Corvette Facts:
This was the last year for the straight back window
A new console held heater and a/c controls and accepted standard Delco radios due to its increased depth. A new steering column positioned the steering wheel two inches closer to the instrument panel to provide more of an "arms out" driving position., and easier entry and exit.
The interior rearview mirror was relocated from above the windshield to the windshield itself.
Headlight dimmer switch and windshield wiper controls were moved and located on the steering column stalks.
Leather Seats were standard
The factory alarm system that was located on the drivers side front fender was moved in mid production to the drivers side door lock
Very early 1977 Model Corvettes engine blocks were painted Chevrolet Orange and Mid to late production all were painted blue as this car is.

Opel's own ad shows Ampera-e beating Opels in drag race
Thu, Sep 8 2016The Opel Ampera-e isn't expected to set any world records on a quarter-mile drag strip. But when it comes to crossing a major boulevard, though, the European version of the Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicle will more than hold its own, potentially scaring inattentive pedestrians everywhere. According to a 35-second video posted by General Motors' Opel division, at least. Opel set up the Ampera-e against four other small-and-sporty vehicles, including racing versions of the Opel Adam and Opel Astra as well as stock versions of the Opel Insignia and Corsa (what, you expected a Corvette to be in there?). With the EV's off-the-line torque as a selling point, Opel showed the Ampera-e beating the other vehicles in a 30-meter (100-foot) drag race. Of course, the video also shows the EV getting passed by some of the others soon after, but the point was made. Opel doubled down by adding the tagline "Fun to Drive" at the end of the video. While Opel hasn't revealed the single-charge range of the Ampera-e, it should be roughly the same as the Chevrolet Bolt, which will be about 200 miles. In addition, the Ampera-e, like the Bolt in the US, will get 200 horsepower from its electric motor, and will be able to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in less than seven seconds. The Ampera-e will debut at the 2016 Paris Motor Show later this month. General Motors said in February that Europe would get the Ampera-e by next year. Opel had previously used the Ampera name with the Euro version of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in.

Chevy Spark EV could be coming to Midwest later this year
Tue, Jun 10 2014Ohio is not known as a hotbed of EV sales – if anything, the state is a bit anti-EV, thanks to a legislative fight against Tesla's direct sales model – but it might be on Chevrolet's short list to expand the market for the Spark EV in the near future. The latest official GM press release on the battery-powered Spark still says the car is "available exclusively in California and Oregon," but Hybrid Cars found four Ohio dealerships that list a Spark EV on their websites, with hints the the car will be coming to the Midwest state by the end of the summer. See, for example, here, here, here and here. But that's probably not going to happen, according to Randy Fox, GM communication's manager for passenger cars. Fox told AutoblogGreen that, "At this point in time, we don't have any official plans to expand the Spark EV beyond California and Oregon." The reason is that California and Oregon have the infrastructure to support EVs, Fox said, and GM wants to be able to support its EV customers. "We are continuing to look at other options," he said. "The selling point for electric cars today is not advertising, it's eyeballs, it's peer exposure" – John O'Dell John O'Dell, a senior editor at Edmunds.com, told AutoblogGreen that, "It makes sense for [GM] to expand sales and it makes sense to do it in a quiet manner, to get these vehicles on the road. The selling point for electric cars today is not advertising, it's eyeballs, it's peer exposure. If someone in my neighborhood has one and he likes it, then maybe I can trust him. So it's important to get these vehicles on the road." Chevy sold 182 Spark EVs last month, a significant increase over the 98 sold in April. That's still small potatoes compared to the 3,000+ Nissan Leaf EVs sold last month, but making the electric Spark available in Ohio, say, or GM's home state of Michigan could boost those numbers. AutoblogGreen called a few dealerships in Michigan to see what they had heard. One salesman said he didn't think GM had started production yet but the inventory manager for another dealership said the Spark EV is scheduled to arrive in the Midwest in "roughly the fourth quarter." What would GM's incentive be to offer the car in markets outside of California where it can gain ZEV credits with each sale?
GM files for Z71 Trail Boss trademark
Mon, Jan 26 2015Try as they might to keep their plans a secret, automakers have their hands tipped through a variety of methods – be they through loose lips, spy shots or patent and trademark applications. That's how we know, in this instance, that General Motors is working on (or at least considering) an off-road machine wearing the name Z71 Trail Boss – the name which our compatriots at AutoGuide.com tell us that GM has registered for use on light-duty trucks. Now if that alphanumeric designator sounds familiar, it should. GM has long used it to designate the off-road packages on many of its body-on-frame trucks from Chevy and GMC. These days you can order a Z71 package on the Chevy Colorado, Silverado, Tahoe and Suburban and on the GMC Canyon, Sierra and Yukon. The package typically includes components like a beefed-up suspension bits, high-capacity air cleaner and underbody protection plates. The Trail Boss designator would seem to suggest something further reaching than a suspension package, though. Just what it would entail we don't know; minds immediately start running toward Chevy or GMC going after the Ford F-150 Raptor, but we'll likely be looking at something closer to the Trailhawk packages Jeep offers on the likes of the Renegade and Cherokee.
