Leather seats came standard in the 1977 Corvette, seeming to declare that luxury was not an option but a necessity for 'vette drivers. Those looking to save cows while burning rubber could opt for the formerly standard cloth seats.
While it was the first year for standard leather seats, 1977 was the last year for the winged roof and straight-drop rear window that had adorned the Corvette through the C3 generation.
What owners say
"Overall, owners really like the classic design and performance of the 1977 Chevrolet Corvette, with many appreciating its style and the feel of driving it. However, some drivers noted issues with the horsepower, outdated features, and comfort, particularly concerning the air conditioning and fuel economy."
Loved the look of her, the speed, the feel of being secure in the seats. The Candy Apple Red w/plum just shimmers in the sunlight and the glow of the side pipe guards just bounce the light off the vette.
June 29, 2013I love the original car's performance, however with a few bolt on's, the car was absolutely great to drive. The 6th gear is almost never used unless on long road trips, the 4.10 rear makes 6th very useable and more seat of the pants accesleration
April 21, 2011The stock 1977 was lacking in horsepower with only 180hp, so I proceeded to have mine stroked to 383 and balanced/blueprinted with alloy pistons, roller rocker, cam etc. Then proceeded to customize the Corvette with lambo doors, 67 stinger hood, hooker-sidepipes, GT headlights, custom rear spoiler and front/rear VBP racing suspension.

June 22, 2007It's an American Muscle Car! I love it. It looks great and holds the road great. I have always wanted a Corvette and now I have one and it is in perfect condition body and motor. I don't think I would ever sell it.
May 25, 2014Nice for a old sport car. Looks like a Corvette should with those sweeping fenders. Since it is 38 years old, it can be temperamental sometimes. Plenty of power from the rebuilt 350 with Hooker headers, Flowmaster exhaust system and no cats. Not fair to compare this to the newer, modern Corvettes. This Corvette gets lot's of "thumbs ups" when I'm out cruising. All Corvette's are red!
May 19, 2015Good looking car in the natural color trend of the late 70's. At 195 horsepower, it was fast for the time but a dog of a car. The air conditioner compressor sounded like a bucket of bolts at idle or on deceleration. The heat of the transmission made it intolerable to remove the roof panels in nice weather. I sold this car when gas went to $1.25 and it was getting 16 mpg at best.
