TOP TO BOTTOM, ALL AROUND, PERFECT. 350 CI, 380 HP CRATE ZZ4 engine, with headers. Flex fan keeps temp below 200 on the highway or slow red light traffic. APPROX. 9000 MILES SINCE RESTO. Perfect all around. All black is wrap/film. Easily peels off then just wash. UNDERNEATH SPRAYED with RUST proofing. Exterior: ... no chips, no cracks, no scratches, and no runs in gorgeous deep deep paint. Absolutely perfect. INTERIOR: ... seats, door panels, carpet replaced when resto was done; all of the interior is perfect. 1976 Vettes selling at $50,000 are likely not any nicer.

Vehicle description
THIS IS A COMPLETE AND ABSOLUTELY PERFECT 1976 CORVETTE (THE MOST POPULAR DESIGN OF THE 70"S VETTES). APPROXIMATELY 9,000 MILES SINCE THE BEST RESTORATION YOU WILL EVER SEE. NO FLAWS. NO LOOKING AT DOOR JAMS AND OTHER HIDDEN SPOTS TO FIND UNPAINTED AREAS, BAD WELDS, BROKEN GLASS. THE TIRES ARE NEW. NO TATTERED OR WORN SEATS, AND MAGNAFLOW 44 MUFFLERS THAT ARE ALMOST NEW, NOT OLD AND RUSTED ( INCLUDING THE PIPES THEY CONNECT TO). THEY HAVE THE SPORTS CAR SOUND A CORVETTE SHOULD HAVE. ALL THE RUBBER UNDERNEATH WAS REPLACED. THE MUNCIE 4 SPEED SHIFTS AS SMOOTH AS BUTTER. THE NEAR BRAND NEW CRATE ZZ4 ENGINE IS 350 INCHES AND 380 HP (WITH HEADERS). IT ALL WORKS TOGETHER TO CREATE WHAT A CORVETTE IS ALL ABOUT; PURE DRIVING FUN. YOU WILL HAVE SUPER FUN GOING THROUGH THE GEARS WITH EASE. WHETHER IN TRAFFIC OR THE OPEN ROAD, YOU LEAVE LANES WITH THE THRILL THIS "380 HP" CORVETTE WAS BUILT TO FACINATE OVER. "CAVEAT": DON"T GET FOOLED THINKING ALL THESE 70"S VETTES HAVE THIS KIND OF HORSE-POWER. MOST WERE BUILT WITH 165 TO 195 HORSEPOWER DURING SEVERAL YEARS OF THE OIL SHORTAGES. THAT VERY LOW HP WILL LEAVE YOU STUCK FROM HAVING THE SMOOTH ZIP A HIGH HORSEPOWER VETTE IS BORN TO BE DRIVEN WITH. I CAN ONLY LET YOU KNOW YOU WILL BE VERY DISAPPOINTED IF YOU PURCHASE ONE OF THOSE "GRANNY 165 TO 215 HP" VETTES. THIS VETTE IS LITERALLY EPIC IN TERMS OF A COMPLETE RESTORATION WHICH IS 100% COMPLETE. "EVERYTHING IS OUTSTANDINGLY PERFECT". THE VERY DEEP GLOSS WITH A FLAWLESS PERFECTION COMING FROM THE YELLOW PAINT COULD NOT MAKE YOU HAPPIER (SHOWROOM PERFECT: NO NICKS, PEBBLE MARKS, SCRATCHES OR MARKS OF ANY KIND ON THIS PERFECT PAINT)). GAZERS FROM EVERY STOP YOU MAKE WILL WATCH, OR GATHER AROUND TO SEE THE FANTASTIC PAINT, INTERIOR AND UNDER THE HOOD UP CLOSE. SPEAKING OF PAINT, YOU NOTICE THE INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL "EAGLE" ON THE HOOD, THE BACK, AND BACK WINDOW. IF DESIRED, ALL BLACK SURFACES AND THE BACK WINDOW, CAN PEEL OFF WITH EASE. FOR ME, THE EAGLES HAVE A LOOK THAT SAY DON"T MESS WITH ME. PERSONALLY, I ALSO LOVE THE EAGLEAND OR I WOULD NOT HAVE HAD THEM WRAPPED. OBVIOUSLY THE SHORT MESSAGE (LET FREEDOM REIGN) CONVEYS MY WAY OF SAYING I LOVE AMERICA. ALSO, THIS IS ANOTHER PROUD WAY FOR OUR VETS AND FIRST REPONDERS TO DISPLAY THEIR LOVE FOR OUR COUNTRY WHILE DRIVING AMERICA"S ONLY TWO SEAT S PORTS CAR. I"M FILLED WITH ENTHUSIASM THAT THIS VETTE MAY BE BOUGHT BY ONE OF OUR FIRST RESPONDERS, VETS OR ACTIVE SOLDIERS. NO BETTER WAY TO SAY I"M A FIRST RESPONDER, ACTIVE SOLDIER OR A VET. THE BEAUTIFUL GRAPHICS SAY "WE DON"T DRIVE ONE OF THOSE FOREIGN PHONIES". NOTHING MORE I CAN SAY. IF YOU WANT TO BUY A PERFECT VETTE, ONE THAT SAYS I LOVE MY COUNTRY IN EVERY WAY, THIS VETTE HAS IT ALL. WHETHER IN THE SHORT WORDS ON BACK WITH AN OUSTANFDING GRAPHIC, OR WITH THE BEAUTIFUL PERFECTION THAT IS SEEN INSIDE AND OUT, UNDER THE HOOD AND CHASIS. THIS IS NO PHONEY. BUY IT AND YOU WILL NEVER HAVE TO SAY I"M SORRY THAT I PASSED WHEN I HAD THE CHANCE TO BUY AMERICAS PERFECT WONDER. ADMIRED BY EVERYONE THAT SEES IT. WHETHER UP CLOSE OR 2 BLOCKS AWAY, IT WILL ALWAYS GET ATTENTION. MANY 70"S VETTES ARE BEING SHIPPED TO EUROPE EACH YEAR. SO MANY, THE BEST OF THE BEST (LIKE THIS ONE) IS NOW DWINDLING DOWN, LEAVING MOSTLY ONLY THE SECOND TEIR CONDITION. THE SECOND TEIR IS CHEAPER TO BUY, HOWEVER, TO BE AS GOOD AS THE BEST OF THE BEST, A SECOND TEIR VETTE WILL COST AN INVESTMENT OF TENS OF THOUSANDS TO MATCH UP WITH A VETTE LIKE THIS. IT COULD EASILY TAKE YEARS TO GET A SECOND TEIR VETTE IN A 1"ST TEIR CONDITION (TO BE THE BEST OF THE BEST).
