Vehicle Description
This 1979 Chevrolet Corvette is a low mileage coupe with a great
blue-on-blue look and the numbers-matching V8 under the hood. And
as you dig into the details, you'll see an investment in everything
from the A/C interior to the engine components that keep this T-top
classic feeling great.
These later C3 Corvettes have a particularly sleek style. The
color-matched bumpers and fastback rear combine with the
classically long hood and shark-like front end to deliver a look we
love. They minimized the chrome for a more modern appearance, and
so performance items like the dual exhaust tips and Rally wheels
now stand out even more. This one was born in white, but was given
a proper change to blue later in life. And the choice of color
looks like the factory dark blue. It's one indication of a
thoughtfully done classic, but it's not your last.
One of the reasons for the exterior color change is that it goes
particularly well with the original dark blue leather interior.
This one has been well-respected and nicely preserved. That's
particularly nice on a car like this that has desirable features
like power windows, a tilt wheel, and the factory AM/FM/cassette
stereo. The three-spoke sports steering wheel feels grippy in your
hands; there's a large speedo and tach are right in front of you;
and the full auxiliary readouts are just to the side at eye-level.
The T-tops still have correct storage bags, so it's easy to take
these out and be open to the world at any time. Even the air
conditioning has been converted to R134a to keep you
comfortable.
Under the hood is the numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch V8 with a
proper four-barrel carburetor on top. But the bright Chevy valve
covers and air topper are the first indication that there have been
nice investments along the way. As you dig deeper you see nice
fundamentals, like a newer water pump, fuel pump, tie rods,
battery, and more. It's a strong-running car that was made for
driving. And the three-speed automatic transmission, power
steering, and fully independent suspension make this classic easy
to enjoy. The four-wheel power disc brakes even have newer pads and
calipers.
Complete with owner's manual, the only way this all-blue Corvette
will make you feel blue is if you miss this deal. Call today!!!
