Chevrolet Corvette 350 V8 L48 1979
General description :
ACT'L MILES, #'S MATCHING 350 V8 L48 & TH350 AUTO, A/C, PWR STEER/BRAKE, CARED 4
With correct colors inside and out, a cold A/C interior, some nice investments, and the numbers-matching V8 under the hood, this 1979 Chevrolet Corvette is a distinct classic offered for a terrific price.
The C3 Corvette has an established look of speed and style, and so nobody who sees this car in your driveway will question how affordable it really is. That's especially true since this one was treated to a full professional respray of its factory-correct metallic silver a few years back. It's a timeless hue that fits in today considering a similar color is in style on many current Mercedes vehicles. Speaking of modern looks, the stripe package outlining the cowl hood has the kind of design that looks like Audi would want. It gives this one true European distinction. Of course, this Corvette will also never lose its American attitude. The curvy C3 body is accented further by the sporty spoiler package front and rear. And the optional aluminum wheels added some nice brightwork to these later C3s.
The red interior looks exceptionally fresh because there was a solid investment here in the seats, carpeting, and much more. For the driver, there's a leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel. Beyond that is the large speedometer and tachometer in front, and a full gauge package prominently to the side. Like any quality Corvette, this one comes loaded with features, including power windows, tilt wheel, electric rear defogger, and an upgraded AM/FM/cassette stereo. Plus, the air conditioning is blowing nice and cold, so feel free to go cruising around with the T-tops off.
The original, matching-numbers 350 cubic inch V8 still lives under the hood. It appears as it left the factory, right down to the blue paint on the valve covers – something Corvette shows love to see! Since this one averaged less than 2,300 miles annually, it shows all the hints of enough driving to keep this coupe healthy, without becoming a high-mileage car. It reminds you a good Corvette is a true grand touring machine, and this one upholds that idea nicely. Features like the original three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and cruise control are great for the long haul. Plus, the fully independent sports suspension and four-wheel disc brakes are there any time you feel like taking the long and winding way home.
Complete with owner's manual, maintenance records, and car cover, this is the affordably-priced and great-looking Corvette that's ready to run right now. Don't miss out, call today!

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing. No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.
When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.
Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.
To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.
With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
