Description

This 1980 Chevrolet Corvette is the one you've been waiting for. With upgraded 454 V8 power, a luxury A/C interior, and plenty of improvements - this is a total package custom classic that's offered for an exceptional price.
Red Corvettes are so iconic that they write songs about them. And the later C3s like this one really do a great job with the color. After all, both the front and rear have the bumper protection expertly integrated into the design, so nothing gets in the way of the flowing fender lines that makes this one look fast just standing still. But like any good American classic, there is room for some brightwork it's just now on the optional alloy wheels. In fact, take a moment to appreciate what you're looking at here. The full package on this Corvette just looks premium and period-correct. Not even the exhaust tips give away the beast within. So this one just has a terrific sleeper personality.
The factory-correct Doeskin Leather interior looks fantastic against the red paint. So we know you'll love taking the T-tops out and showing off this total package. And with the air conditioning upgraded to R134a, nothing is stopping you from doing this all through the summer season. More than just great colors, there has been an investment here to make sure this is a terrific cruiser. With the addition of the wood paneling on the center console, and a new steering wheel to match, you're looking at plenty of premium flair. Plus, it comes loaded with power windows, tilt steering wheel, power steering, and an upgraded AM/FM stereo with digital tuner and aux input for your iPod. As a true driver's car, you also get a large speedo/tach package directly in front of you, and a full gauge cluster prominently to the side. Those go perfectly with the enhancement under the hood.
While the 1980 Corvettes were beautiful, they never got the big block option that the earlier C3s had. This one rectifies that setback with a 454 cubic-inch V8 under the hood. This upgrade is proudly showcased with the bright air topper, valve covers, and many more polished components. More than just a huge displacement, this big block has the right performance pieces, including a four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, Accel electronic ignition, and headers that feed a rumbling dual exhaust. This Corvette is the perfect one to accept the extra power, because it's already setup to be a terrific sports car. With a fully independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes, the back roads are already calling you. But more than just a pure power machine, this is a thoughtful total build. For example, the four-speed automatic transmission is stout enough for performance driving, and it also easily settles into overdrive cruising. And the large aluminum radiator means the whole package stays cool even if you're in traffic with the A/C pumping.
Such powerful and well-presented classics like this are rarely so obtainable. So you know you need to hurry if you want to take this custom Corvette home. Call today!!!
