Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this sharp red 1979
Chevrolet Corvette. Driven only 61k actual miles on its numbers
matching engine and transmission, this car has tons of value. The
Chevrolet Corvette (C3) was a sports car that was produced by
Chevrolet for the 1968 through 1982 model years. Engines and
chassis components were mostly carried over from the previous
generation, but the body and interior were new. It set new sales
records with 53,807 produced for the 1979 model year.[3] The C3 is
the third generation of the Chevrolet Corvette, and marks the
second time the Corvette would carry the Stingray name, though only
for the 1969 - 1976 model years. This time it was a single word as
opposed to Sting Ray as used for the 1963 - 1967 C2 generation. The
name would then be retired until 2014 when it was re-introduced
with the release of the C7. This all original Corvette has been
meticulously taken care of and kept the way it came from the
factory. The red paint is original but still shines in the sun like
it would have in '79. This C3 even comes with the window sticker
from GM. This car is turn key and ready to be enjoyed. Being all
original you can use this car as a daily driver or even put it into
shows. All of the fluids and filters have recently been changed.
This car has also had new brakes and mufflers installed.
Positraction rear axle, tinted glass, and a wide-ratio 4-speed
manual transmission were standard in '79. This 5.7 liter engine
runs great and has plenty of life left in it. Options on this
Corvette include; Air conditioning, T-Tops, Cd Player, cruise
control, power windows, power steering and brakes, vinyl red
interior, tilt wheel, posi traction, radial tires, and even rally
wheels. Do not let this sharp Corvette pass you by! This 1979
