For Sale: 1979 Chevrolet Corvette in Lithia Springs, Georgia

Vehicle Description

The shape and allure of a classic C3 Corvette are impossible for almost anyone to deny. Its iconic status has inspired books, songs, and fantasies of young children since 1953. One look at this fully repainted red numbers-matching 1979 Chevrolet Corvette, and it is easy to see why. The sinewy Coke bottle shape, wonderfully practical T-top roof, and overall factory appearance of this 'Vette let you travel back in time to the back end of the third generation of Chevy's halo car. Inside, we find a plush light beige interior highlighted by woodgrain trim and a flurry of classic Corvette analog gauges. The lone outlier from the traditional setup is the Sony CD player head unit that utilizes a JL amp and subwoofer mounted behind the seats.

Under the hood, we find a numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch V-8 topped by a single four-barrel carburetor and Holley intake. Gone is the stock car's restrictive y-pipe, and in its place is a sweet-sounding true-dual exhaust complete with twin Dynomax mufflers, allowing this Vette to have the throaty voice one expects from a car bearing the Crossed Flags emblem. Power from that small block is funneled through a 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission before being sent out to the Corvette rear.
