The sales brochure for the '76-model Corvette starts with the saying “America's only true production sports car”, which was true at that time for a number of reasons. Even though the oil crisis, stringent regulations, and competition from other countries made things tough for all automakers, the Corvette still stood tall in respect of the performance heap in the context of the situation. The 1976 Corvette was played up by Car and Driver magazine when they drove one on a road trip to Alaska. They remarked, "we were shocked at how well it handled the ordeal.” It’s tempting, and hard to dismiss, especially when it looks as good as this 1976 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray that had undergone a full frame off restoration. The car has barely 1,200 miles on it since it was completed in around 2019. It is currently located in Connecticut and is sold with its original engine that was replaced in the restoration.

It sits gracefully on BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires shod to silver wheels boasting Corvette center caps. The interior of this 1976 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is a neat place to be in as well.
