The 1977 Corvette maintains its cool factor, even after all these years. Its aerodynamic frame is classic and easily recognized. The look is sporty, and the engine is high performance. The two-seat cockpit is both intimate and comfortable. While Chevrolet made convertible Corvettes both before and after 1977, the 1977 Corvette is only available as a two-door coupe. A landmark year for this iconic car, 1977 both saw the 500,000th Chevrolet Corvette produced and was the third-highest production year to date, with more than 49,000 cars built.
1977 Corvette features
The 1977 Chevrolet Corvette introduced standard leather seats, replacing the vinyl upholstery of earlier models, as well as available cruise control. It was also the final year of the flat rear window. By 1978, this was replaced by a fastback rear windshield. The 1977 Corvette has a fibreglass body that won’t corrode or rust. A tilt-telescopic steering wheel adjusts to six different angles for driving comfort and to make entering and exiting easier. The choice of engines gives you different power options, including a special 350 4-barrel V8 (L82) that provides 250 horsepower.
Other Corvette models
The Chevrolet Corvette of today has a driving position that’s about 16 inches forward, making it easier to see. Your rear sightline is improved by a Rear Camera Mirror too. The engine is smaller than the 1977 but more powerful—it’s a 6.2 L LT2 aluminum small-block V8 engine with 490 standard horsepower. Technology advancements help drivers stay connected, entertained and even become better on the road, thanks to the available Performance Data Recorder that can act as a driving coach.
