1977 Corvette Production Volumes
The 1977 Corvette set another new sales and production record at 49,213 units. The popularity of the Chevy Corvette throughout the 1970’s was proven time and again by the year over year increase in sales numbers despite the dramatic increases in cost. In 1974, the base sticker price of the Corvette had crossed the $6,000 barrier for the first time. Despite this, there was no question that the popularity of the Corvette was still on the rise – which was doubly amazing (though not surprising) given that the C3 Corvette was a decade old.
