1976 Stingray corvette 350/350 ac car real barn find runs drives see description
1976 Chevrolet Corvette stringray 350
NO RESERVE MAKE OFFER.I have known about this car for many years sitting in a barn in North Carolina, it belonged to my wife's uncle. I had been trying to buy this car for many years he would not sell it.
He put the car up years ago on stands. Recently contacted me asking me if I would still be interested in the old Corvette out in the barn, I was shocked and told him yes but I had already bought one that I was happy with. Despite this I purchased the car just as you see it, Then had it transported to my home in Dearborn Heights Michigan, "Auto Transport 123 was the Carrier" fairly inexpensive. See pics.
Description:
The car was pulled out the barn seeing sunshine for the first time in years all the fluids were removed and changed out with fresh, A brand new battery was installed to get her to crank over, One two three she fired up. The floats in the carb seemed a bit sticky we used sea foam in the gas tank and lucus and even some marvel mystery oil, it really did help out now seems to run and idle just fine on its its own. Could really use a full tank of premium gas run through it, I'm sure it will get better over time.The Corvette has been run to full operating temp with no leaks. It does not smoke tic or have any funny noises, it runs solid. I put it in drive, it went right into gear like it was driven last week. So away it went down the long country driveway. I turned the car back around as the brakes seem soft and need some attention.
Car has only 66000 original miles.
Its dusty & trusty runs drives but does need a complete professional detailing in & out. I did hand wax the T-Tops and they came out amazing, a bright red. Buffing wheel and some compound along with a wax job ect would make a world of difference.
It's missing the original factory stereo a pioneer cd was put in place but does not work either.The center console arm rest where the emergency brake lever sits is cracked, but I did have a replacement arm pad for it.
The paint has a few scuffs and dings & chips all to be expected from a 42+ year old car, but amazingly still looks good. and will shine up.
The carpet is wore out on the drivers side and the drivers side door only opens from the inside. Both driver & passenger outer door handles are flush and work fantastic, passenger door operates perfect. Both chrome handles are in excellent condition.
The seats are mint along with door panels, also all the other interior trim pieces seem to be in great shape and all original. Tilt Telescopic steering wheel is in full working order with no issues as well.
The T-Tops are perfect and show no signs of leaks with good seals even the inner headliners are mint.
Power windows and all dash gauges are in working order oil,temp,clock ect.
Car has Air Conditioning although is non functional I'm sure it would work as its all there and complete, might need some rubber seals & some fresh Freon.
This Corvette is rock solid has no rust issues at all. The Bird cage and all frame rails are in perfect condition.
The car is pretty clean, the body is laser straight & mechanically its solid minus the brake issue. it still stops but they are spongy feeling.
This is and always has been an adult owned Corvette.
This is a Mans car, No air bags, anti lock brakes, no safety equipment, Pull the T-Tops off crank up some 70's REO Speedwagon and hit the road hair blowing the wind.
Think summer this is the one to own people.
Never seen a snow flake ever in its life.
I have both sets of original GM Corvette keys both work perfect in the door locks and ignition. A clean original North Carolina title in my wife's Uncles name will be provided.
In short this is a turn key running driving 1976 Corvette Stingray that needs very little attention to be a daily driver. A solid weekend and your on the road enjoying this vintage vette.
