Life has once again kicked me in the groin and I must sell this, my last prized possession from a time when I was successful. This is a 1976 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, fully numbers-matching, with automatic transmission, L48 Engine, T-Tops and 77K original miles. It's been garage kept for most of that time. The body has a couple minor dings, mostly just chips in the paint. There is a small crack behind the driver's side rear wheel well from a careless jerk in a parking lot, and some chips on the T-Tops from a careless idiot friend. See pics. The previous owner rebuilt the engine in 2002 at 70K miles, and since then it's only added 7K miles. Radio is missing, because I removed the ridiculous tape player an owner in the 80s had installed, which didn't fit and looked awful. Original radio is AWOL. The carpet appears brown in some pics because of my terrible camera which sees things that are not there. It is black, the original carpet from 1976. AC is untested. Headlamps are up because of old vacuum lines, actuators are fine. There are other ticks typical of a 40 year-old car, but none that impede function or appearance. This car is nice as is, and would be very easy to restore to perfect condition. I will also include both the Chilton and Haynes manuals, and a couple books on restoration. I have the original owner's manual, and documentation of all work I have had done, and even older registrations, sales receipts and dealer info going back to 1979. I would like to say that you won't find many like this, but that's a heap of crap. They're all over the place. Just buy mine and give it a good home. Someone asked me about the tires, but Ebay keeps bouncing back my reply so he needs to check that the email he has registered with them is correct. I replaced one tire a few years back when it blew, then the other three about two years ago. The car has driven only about 200 miles since then, so even though they aren't brand new they are in excellent condition. Rims are aluminum, 15 inch. Tire size is 235/60/15. $8K is the firm price. I paid $10K for this car in 2004, so I'm already selling at a loss. Buyer will have to arrange shipping because I don't have time. $500 deposit due 48 hours after end of auction, full payment within 14 days unless other arrangements can be made. Car is located in Port St Lucie, FL. Local pickup encouraged!
