Original color combo L82 350ci C3 Vette classic vintage
1980 Chevrolet Corvette Description
This 1980 Chevrolet Corvette was born the ideal shade of red, and it even still has its numbers-matching V8. Plus, with a loaded A/C interior and good recent maintenance, this T-top coupe is really looking like a heck of a deal.
This is an original red car - always a desirable feature for Corvettes. It has been given a re-spray later in life to make sure it has the right shine in the sunlight, but there's enough age on it so no one will accuse of owning a trailer queen. This combines with straight body panels to showcase the sharp edges and rounded fenders we love on these C3s. It has been under the kind or proper care where the T-tops are clear and body gaps are uniform. So it has the look of a well-respected car, right down to the shining factory alloys.
The correct black interior has a nice look against the red exterior. This has nice factory features like power windows, power locks, and cruise control. There are also some nice added features, like the wood-like trim, cup holders, and a modern AM/FM digital tuner with aux input. It all goes towards making this a more comfortable cruiser. And driving is what a Corvette is really meant to do. These later C3s have the upgraded sports seats that offer the kind of bolstering that still makes modern cars jealous. You have a sport steering wheel on a tilt column, and that gives you an excellent view of the large speedo and tach. The T-tops mean you can easily share this good-looking interior with the world. And the upgrade to modern R134a air conditioning means you can even feel as cool as you look while doing it.
Under the hood is the numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch V8. The records show this has been given some nice investments in the fundamentals, including a new master cylinder and hoses. Plus, there's a new intake and a new Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor to add extra muscle to this small block. The engine runs great and makes a sweet sound out of the dual exhaust tips. The three-speed automatic transmission is believed to be original to the car, and it provides a confident feeling through the gears. And the fully independent sports suspension, power steering, and four-wheel power disc brakes all come together to make a great driving package.
Complete with owner's manual and maintenance records, this is the solid, attractive, and affordable Corvette you've been waiting for. Call today!!!
