1976 Chevrolet Corvette

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

For the 1976 model year, the Chevrolet Corvette retained its iconic pop-up headlights and removable T-top roof panels. Defiance to engine bay downsizing, the Corvette stuck with its L78 350ci V8, which could be optionally paired with a smooth 3-speed automatic transmission. Power-assisted steering and brakes made the C3 Corvette livable in daily driving and performance-oriented when hustled. .

Finished in red over tan leather, this 1976 C3 has been modified with 15” American Racing wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires and a CD player paired with aftermarket speakers. Said to have been driven only a few miles since the seller's acquisition in late 2024 on Hagerty Marketplace, this C3 Corvette has had a recent oil change.

This 1976 Chevrolet Corvette is now offered at no reserve with a clean Georgia title in the seller’s name.
