Vehicle Description
More than just a loaded V8 classic, this is a survivor-grade 1985
Chevrolet Corvette that still has its original paint and has
averaged less than 1,700 miles annually. So you're looking at a lot
more appeal than the affordable price would ever suggest.
Two-tone blue is a rare option that was only offered for two years
and there were less than 3,000 done in total! This factory-correct
color is also the original factory-applied paint, and the level of
presentation today tells you this one has always been cared for
correctly. Even the pristine condition of the iconic turbine-style
wheels tells you they were careful with every parking job. This is
combined with the straight body panels that let the light roll
evenly across this slick C4 body, so don't be surprised if the
condition of this original two-tone wins you awards all on its
own.
The festival of blue continues inside. In fact, the blue sports
cloth seats are another great rare and original option - and it
gets this '85 Corvette's rarity closer to 1 in 1,500 ever made! And
even if you do find another one optioned like this, you'll be
hard-pressed to find one so fantastically preserved. So you'll love
showcasing the nice interior with the glass targa roof out. But
also you're going to love driving it. There's something special
about turning the key and watching the digital gauge package come
to life. After all, there is no cooler piece of 1980s tech, and so
all enthusiasts look for ones as crisp and correct as this one. In
fact, the whole interior presentation has everything a survivor
enthusiast could want. That's because its loaded with features like
power seats, power windows, power locks, alarm system, trip
computer, and the factory Bose AM/FM/cassette stereo. Even the air
conditioning (now upgraded to R134a) is in place and blowing cold.
So while this is a survivor-grade Corvette, it also is a great
classic to cruise all year long.
The C4 was always meant to showcase its motor. After all, few
factory vehicles will let you tilt the whole font end forward to
give everyone a clear view of the fuel-injected V8. On a vehicle
that has been so original thus far, you'll be happy to know this is
the numbers-matching L98 350 cubic-inch motor. Everything is
correctly presented, right down to the belt diagram still attached
to the front cowl. Not only were these motors one of the bright
spots in the horsepower-zapped '80s, but it produces the kind of
head-snapping torque that made you the first one off the line.
That's why we're so excited about this car. Its comprehensive
preservation makes it an ultra-desirable collectable, and it's also
still a great driver. With a four-speed automatic transmission
w/overdrive, four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, cruise
control, and a fully independent suspension, this Corvette still
has all the right features to be a great weekend getaway
machine.
A distinct classic like this needs the right paperwork. So the sale
also comes with the original window sticker, owner's manual,
service manuals, and maintenance records. It's amazing something
this distinctive and respected can also be so affordable. We know
something this desirable won't stay long, so don't miss out. Call
