HIGHLIGHTS: • 1980 Chevrolet Corvette L48 with numbers-matching
350ci V8 bored to 355ci • Upgraded Silver Sport A41 4L60E 4-speed
automatic transmission • Power steering, power disc brakes,
DeWitt's aluminum radiator, and electric cooling fans • Hooker
Headers, dual exhaust, and Borla mufflers • Van Steel suspension
including tubular control arms, sway bars, and coilover shocks •
Repainted in pearl white over original Doeskin interior • Modern
upgrades include March serpentine belt system, Pioneer stereo, and
alloy wheels BODY OVERVIEW: This late C3 Corvette's stance delivers
pure muscle car attitude. The body is clean, straight, and shows
well, maintaining all the dramatic curves that made these cars
icons of the era. The aftermarket 15-inch black alloy wheels
wrapped in BF Goodrich tires add a sportier, more aggressive touch
without straying too far from the car's original character. As
shown in the photos, there is a bump on the nose. PAINT CONDITION
OVERVIEW: Originally white, this Corvette now wears a pearl white
repaint that gives it a bit of extra flair and depth in the sun.
The finish shines nicely and presents well overall, but it's not
fresh-there are some imperfections and light wear consistent with
an older paint job as shown in the photos It's a great look for a
car that's meant to be driven and enjoyed, not locked away in a
plastic bubble! INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: The Doeskin interior
appears largely original and has that classic Corvette cockpit feel
that wraps around the driver and holds you in tightly. The seats,
dash, and panels show some age, but make no mistake-it shows nicely
as it is. A modern Pioneer stereo adds some 21st-century
convenience, while the rest remains true to its late-'70s charm.
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW: Under the hood, things start to heat up! The
numbers-matching 350ci V8 is alive and well, and has been bored to
a 355 boasting a believed 400HP. Paired with a Silver Sport A41
4L60E automatic transmission, a huge improvement in drivability
over the factory 3-speed, this 'Vette is set up for the driver's
pleasure. Supporting upgrades like an DeWitt aluminum radiator,
electric fans, March serpentine belt drive, Van Steel tubular
control arms, and coilover shocks make this C3 better handling than
ever. The Hooker headers, dual exhaust, and Borla mufflers make it
sound every bit as mean as it looks! Other mechanical upgrades
include electric headlight motor conversion, MSD ignition, Borgeson
steering box, and a Duntov Motorsports Dana rear end with 3.73 gear
ratio. The car fires up easily, runs strong, and drives with
confidence! It's quiet at a stoplight, but really comes alive when
you put your foot down. Plus it handles like its on rails! WHAT
YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR: • That classic Corvette silhouette in a
stunning pearl white finish! • The growl from the Borla exhaust and
the effortless power from the upgraded drivetrain! • The durability
added by the 4L60E transmission and cooling system upgrades • A
balance between originality and tasteful modernization • It's a
Corvette you can actually drive and enjoy guilt-free! WHAT YOU
MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR: • It's not a concours showpiece-this
one's been driven and enjoyed • If you want a factory-perfect
original Corvette, this car's modern touches might not fit your
taste DOES IT NEED ANYTHING? The blower motor, temperature gauge,
and tachometer do not work. The tires are older. Otherwise, this
car is road-ready and eager for its next adventure! WHAT BUYER IS

wants a stylish, modernized, and fun driver's car-something to
actually take out and enjoy on weekends, not just stare at in the
