For Sale: 1980 Chevrolet Corvette in Lutz, Florida

This 1980 Chevrolet Corvette gets it right in the best places. More than just an affordable price, you get the later C3 clean design with added flair from the side pipes and extra muscle from an upgraded small block. So it makes for a bright white classic that has even more eye-catching appeal.


White is a timelessly appealing color, and that's especially true when you invest in a quality respray later in life. This combines with straight body panels to showcase the sharp edges and rounded fenders we love on these C3s. While the body is quite free of brightwork for a more contemporary look, that doesn't mean they skipped out on the high polish presentation entirely. It's just saved for accessories like optional 15-inch factory aluminum wheels. And those polished side pipes really give this a cool attitude while also instantly connecting to previous generations of the Corvette.


Dark colors stand out quite nicely against the exterior white, and so you not only have tinted windows, but also a deep Claret Red interior. So this one is attractive no matter if you're fully buttoned-up or have the T-tops out and open to the world. This one also gives you a nice list of desirable features, like power windows, cup holders, and AM/FM digital tuner w/cassette. There are also provisions for factory air conditioning and power locks (they will need servicing to function again.) There are also nice details like a working dome light and privacy screen for the rear hatch. The tilt wheel gives you a clear view of the large speedo and tach. We love how the C3 gives you all the other gauges prominently placed in the top center of the car.


Under the hood is an upgraded 350 cubic-inch crate V8 with a four-barrel carburetor on top. It's a clean presentation that has desirable upgrades like a Weiand intake, HEI coil, and an electric fan. And the headers add even more power while also feeding the shining side pipes to give this distinctive Corvette a distinctive growl. The three-speed automatic transmission, fully independent sports suspension, power steering, and four-wheel power disc brakes all come together to make a great driving package.


You're looking at a Corvette that has been upgraded to make a great first impression for everyone and keep the driver grinning from ear to ear. So when it's this affordably priced, you know it's time to hurry up. Call today!!!
