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 numbers-matching 1979 Chevrolet Corvette L82 repainted in its original Corvette Medium Red, 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 matching Corvette Medium Red leather interior that appears to be stock, correct, and is most likely original. A tilt and telescoping steering wheel, factory AM/FM stereo, power windows, and locks are complemented by new floor mats, cruise control, and color-matched T-Tops to make this \'Vette as much fun on the inside as it is on the outside. Under the hood, we find a numbers-matching L82 350 cubic-inch V-8 topped by a single four-barrel carburetor and aluminum intake manifold. Stock-style exhaust manifolds flow into a dual FlowMaster exhaust, giving this small block the throaty growl it deserves. From the factory, the L82 produced 225 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. Those ponies are funneled through a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission before being sent out to the Corvette rear end.
