The C3 Corvette is one of the most recognizable shapes in American performance history, and the later L82 cars added a stronger performance edge to the dramatic “shark” styling. This 1979 Chevrolet Corvette L82 Coupe shows just 11,856 miles and is finished in Black over a reupholstered Red leather interior. Its enthusiast appeal comes from the 350ci L82 V8, 4-speed manual transmission, removable T-top roof panels, full auxiliary gauge package, and classic rear-wheel-drive layout. With its low indicated mileage, manual gearbox, and reupholstered cabin, this Corvette offers the kind of analog V8 driving experience that defines the C3 generation.
