This 1979 Chevrolet Corvette is in remarkable original condition, showing just 15,257 miles that are believed to be original. This C3 Corvette showcases the iconic sweeping lines and aggressive stance that defined a generation of performance cars. The fiberglass body sits on 15-inch factory alloy wheels, wrapped in BF Goodrich Radial T/T tires staggered 255/60-15 front and 275/60-15 rear, giving it a confidant stance. The clean, unadorned exterior still shows off its original paint that was more recently cleared over for additional sparkle and protection lets the Corvette's sculpted form speak for itself, while details like the T-top roof add classic flair.
Inside, the exceptionally clean, Oyster color original interior creates a cohesive, monochromatic look that's pure '70s cool. The leather bucket seats offer both comfort and support for spirited driving. A factory AM/FM/cassette radio provides cruising music. The center console houses the shifter for the 4-speed manual transmission, putting total control at the driver's fingertips. Power steering and power disc brakes ensure this Corvette is as comfortable cruising as it is carving corners.
Powering this American icon is an optional, numbers-matching 350 cubic inch L82 high-performance V8, featuring a factory dual-snorkel air cleaner and the L-82's signature finned aluminum valve covers. Adding to the retro-cool look of this Corvette are exhaust headers linked to chrome side pipes that provide a throaty soundtrack. Only 7.5 percent of all Corvettes produced for the 1979 model year were factory equipped with 4-speeds, this fact, combined with the optional L-82 engine, make this Corvette highly desirable to collectors. The 4-speed transmission and Corvette rear end work in harmony to put the power down smoothly. Four-wheel power disc brakes bring everything to a confident stop when needed.
