For Sale: 1979 Chevrolet Corvette in Concord, North Carolina

Vehicle Description

This 1979 Chevrolet Corvette represents T-top fun, V8 power, true cruiser style, and plenty of potential. The affordable iconic coupe gets you thinking about all the fun you can have with America's sports car.

A Corvette in Classic White feels like a blank canvas. You can do everything from enjoying one of the most timeless colors around, or maybe you wrap the body in neon colors and promote your business. It's all about the potential this C3 has. The long hood with low hidden headlights, later fastback style, and clean lines remind you that all the fundamentals you want are already in place while having the right style and budget price to get you thinking about creating something more personal. There are already some fun additions, like the full-width rear spoiler, rocket-like tail lights, and pace car-style YJ8 alloy wheels (the red line looks partially distinctive against the white.) It gives this the right touch of individual style without going over the top. So we bet it'll inspire your customization.

The black interior has a nice look against the white exterior, giving you one of the most appealing color combos. So you'll like taking the T-tops out and sharing this with the world. In fact, with comfy cloth inserts on the seats, this Corvette is quite a nice sunny day friend. You'll also like it because it's loaded with features like power windows, power locks, an AM/FM stereo, and provisions for air conditioning (it will need servicing to blow cold again.) These later C3s were known for their body-hugging bucket seats. This combines the upgraded sports steering wheel on the tilt column to give you the commanding kind of driver's feeling that makes the Corvette a true friend of the open road.

Under the hood is the 305 cubic-inch V8 with a four-barrel carburetor. It has a nice look, including the finned valve covers with Corvette racing flags. Of course, the real appeal here is your upgrading possibilities with such a hard base. A weekend of tinkering, tuning, and adding some budget-friendly components can unleash your ideal powerhouse. And the reason to love a Corvette like this is that you can choose how to dial in your motor, and then you have a great grand touring machine. The fully independent suspension, three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and four-wheel power disc brakes make this an outstanding package for a driver's classic.

Complete with the owner's manual, this Corvette isn't perfect, but the idea is about using the value price to reinvest in the areas you want to focus your interests on. It means you have the opportunity to create a car that's both fresh and personal. And there's something fundamentally appealing about a car that delivers this iconic style on day one. Call now!
