Found the window sticker from my 1976 Corvette. Thought you

might like to see it



Added cruise control on the 5-speed manual transmission for $150, bringing the total to $9879.85.

GMAC interest charge was like 11%. But I paid that Vette off in less than 36 months.

Black and red like this, 350 V8, but with stock wheel rims. AC, power brakes, power steering, power windows. That's probably a grand right there.
