1976 Chevrolet Corvette L82 4-Speed

This 1976 Chevrolet Corvette coupe was acquired by the seller after it was offered on BaT in April 2024. Subsequent work consisted of installing a dual exhaust system and replacing the heater core, brake booster, water pump, fuel pump, ignition components, shocks, rear wheel bearings, belts and hoses. Now showing 12k miles, the car is finished in Classic White over Light Buckskin vinyl and powered by a 350ci L82 V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission. It is further equipped with removable roof panels, power-assisted brakes and steering, and 15″ aluminum wheels. Previously sold on BaT in September 2022, this C3 coupe is offered with manufacturer’s literature, service records, and a clean Texas title in the seller’s name.

The car is finished in Classic White (10L). Exterior details include a driver-side mirror, removable roof panels, and pop-up headlights. Photos in the gallery further show the finish, trim, and noted blemishes.

Polished 15″ aluminum wheels were mounted with 225/70 BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires in May 2023. The car is equipped with power-assisted disc brakes at all four corners. Work under current ownership consisted of replacing the brake booster, shock absorbers, and rear wheel bearings.

The bucket seats are upholstered in Light Buckskin vinyl, and they are complemented by color-coordinated carpeting and trim. Appointments include a heater, passenger-side map pockets, Corvette-branded floor mats, and crank windows. The clock and the FM band of the AM/FM radio are inoperative. The headlight switch was repaired under prior ownership.

The four-spoke steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer, while auxiliary gauges are mounted in the center stack. The five-digit odometer shows under 12k miles, approximately 4k of which were added under current ownership.

The optional 350ci L82 V8 is equipped with a four-barrel carburetor, and it produced 210 horsepower and 255 lb-ft of torque when new. Work under current ownership consisted of replacing the distributor cap, rotor, water pump, fuel pump, heater core, belts, hoses, spark plugs, valve cover and oil pan gaskets, and ignition wires.

The engine stamping sequence S437225 corresponds with the last seven characters of the vehicle’s serial number. The CHC suffix stamped on the same pad corresponds with the L82 350ci engine for manual-transmission applications.

Power is routed to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission and a Positraction differential. The catalytic converter was removed and a dual exhaust system was installed under current ownership.

Manufacturer’s literature is included in the sale along with two sets of keys and an NCRS Corvette Specifications Guide.
