net, September 2018 It is popular opinion that the 1976 Corvette Stingray was the best-looking Corvette to date up to this point.
Though there were few changes made, their impact was great.
This is true design talent.
The air-extractor vents were removed from the rear deck, along with the astro-ventilation system.
The cowl flap was also removed, as complaints had been heard that the assembly whistled loudly while driving, taking away from a positive Corvette driving experience.
In its place was a new modified cowl induction, which improved both aesthetics and function.
This is a perfect example of one of the many changes in Corvette history that gave them the reputation for innovative design addressing form and function simultaneously.
After a 4,000-mile road trip to Alaska, Car and Driver delivered their verdict on the reliability and road manners of '76 model:
The Corvette was a big hit?EURwe expected and thoroughly enjoyed that?EURbut we were surprised at how well it withstood the ordealonce we recovered from the trip we conceded that we'd developed new respect for a car we'd long regarded as something of a put on.
In every sense of the word, our Yukon Corvette proved to be tough and we'd have to say that even the production versions impressed us as coming closer to being real touring cars than we might ever have thought.
Offered here, resprayed in a medium-blue metallic shade similar to today's Elkhart Lake blue, over black is a 1976 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe.
Currently showing 63,079 miles on its odometer, the car has traveled roughly 1,400 miles per-year on average since new.
That very conservative mileage coupled with obvious owner care is responsible for the Corvette's superb condition.
The exterior medium-blue-metallic color is a beautiful shade well-suited to the car's curvaceous body lines.
Reflective highlights from the paint emphasize key design aspects including the cowl-induction hood bulge, the slightly rounded shape of the removable roof panels, and the flowing fenders.
Subtle gray-and-white fender pinstriping adds to the effect.
(To best assess the quality of the paint and trim finishes, please be sure to view the close-up photographs of the car in the accompanying gallery.
) Tasteful chrome trim is limited to the rocker-panel trim, windshield surround, the added side pipes, and rear-deck luggage carrier, all of which display beautifully maintained finishes.
Tinted cabin glass and all lighting lenses-including on the pop-up headlights-are clear and unmarred.
Factory badging is all in place, including the round crossed-flags emblem in front and another in back, Stingray script on the front fenders, L82 engine-identification badge on the hood, and the angled Corvette lettering between the taillights.
Beautifully pristine, bright-finish AmericanRacing 5-spoke, 15-inch wheels are mounted with BFGoodrich Radial T/A raised-white-letter 225/70 tires.
Inside, the color theme is black.
Black leather covering the contoured bucket seats has been properly maintained and shows only expected age-related creasing, but no damage.
Hard-plastic black door panels include woodgrain trim and lower carpet panels.
Black cabin carpeting is protected by matching carpet mats embroidered with the Stingray logo.
The 4-spoke, black, sport steering wheel with crossed-flags center emblem frames the large 160-mph spee.
