Some elbow grease, a lot of parts, and maybe expert help will turn this C3 into something magical.


Like all broke gearheads, we like to peruse Craigslist for basement bargain cars. A lot of what you find for a deal is garbage, but occasionally there’s that diamond in the rough. The question is which is this 1977 Chevrolet Corvette listed in Los Angeles? You’re definitely going to need to bring your own pitchfork to get this sports car out of the hay, that’s for sure.

According to the ad, this C3 Corvette has “been sitting for a few years.” Considering it looks like a set piece for a zombie apocalypse movie, we’d have to concur. It looks like the paint used to be black, but we can’t be certain about that, but it looks like that near the rocker panels. Amazingly, rust doesn’t appear to have eaten through any of the body panels. Big tears in the seats, stains in the carpet, etc. ensures you’ll bring something to sit on if you want to see what it’s like behind the wheel, but don’t count on driving this ‘Vette home.
