Vette(s): 1977 T-top

Bought this last October, as our son (Marine Corpsman) was returning from Afghanistan.

Thought it would be good "therapy" for he and I  to spend some hours bending wrenches and letting our minds wander.

Well, it didn't work out that way.

Instead, he married his high-school sweetheart and now his time / attention have been redirected (can't say i blame him - a happy wife is a happy life).

 

 

While reviewing "my" list of projects last week (with guidance from my better-half);

it's time to thin out the project queue...

 

The 77  Corvette  project has been selected...

 

I am the 2nd owner of this Arizona car.

Previous owner was a 75 year old woman (Accountant) who bought it new.

yes - it's true. ... no - she wasn't a hot-rodder.

She told me she had only had 3 cars in her life - all Corvettes.

a 58, a 66 and the 77 - "Casper"

 

350/4spd/all original /red interior / T-tops / believe it's 149,000 or so on the odometer.

vin 1Z37L7S

it runs well - but does need some TLC. after all it's a 35 years old.

 

what it needs:

 - rear suspension bushings (bushing kit included)

 - headlights don't pop-up (vacuum line kit included)

 - tires -

 - AM/FM/CB radio doesn't work (powers on but no sound - maybe speaker issue)

 - A/C needs work (new seals and recharge??)

 - interior is worn, dash cracked, seats need recovering.

 

Understand the average price would be in the $10,000 range.

Motivated to sell.

Would be willing to take less to put Casper in a good home.

 

Also have several pieces of grey/silver Corvette luggage that came with the car.

 
additional pictures   on request....
Thanks for considering....

Good Luck, I have a slick 77 L82 with a rare interior option 80+ % numbers car for 8 grand and I have not even got a lowball offer... I think it is the economy....
I hope she sells, and lets hope they are looking for two when they buy ... Big smile
