produced from 1967 to 1982 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.[4] 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. The Big
Block options were: L36, a 390 hp (291 kW) version with a Rochester
4-barrel carburetor; The L68, a 400 hp (298 kW) motor with a Holley
triple 2-barrel carb set up (3 X 2 tri-power); The L71, generating
435 bhp (441 PS; 324 kW) at 5,800 rpm and 460 lb?ft (624 N?m) at
4,000 rpm of torque also with a tri-power;[7] The L89 option was
the L71 engine but with much lighter aluminum cylinder heads rather
than the standard cast iron. Then there was the L88 engine that
Chevrolet designed strictly for off-road use (racing), with a
published rating of 430 hp (321 kW), but featured a high-capacity
4-barrel carb, aluminum heads, a unique air induction system, and
an ultra-high compression ratio (12.5:1).[8] All small block cars
had low-profile hoods. All big block cars had domed hoods for
additional engine clearance with twin simulated vents and "427"
emblems on either side of the dome. The new seven-inch wide steel
wheels had F70x15 nylon bias-ply tires standard with either white
or red stripe tires optional. Rare options were: L88 engine (80),
J56 heavy-duty brakes (81), UA6 alarm system (388), L89 aluminum
heads (Source: Wikipedia) Don't miss your opportunity to own a
