Background Story of this 1979 Chevrolet Corvette

Overview of 1979 Chevrolet Corvette For Sale by Owner

Everyone loves the iconic Shelby Cobra. In addition to being a racing-bred platform known for its speed and power, the Cobra is one of the most iconic shapes in automotive history. Only a limited number of original cars exist, but thanks to amazing replicas like our featured car, many more can enjoy the thrill of owning one of these coveted machines. Reportedly built by the replica maestros over at Group Five Limited, this Cobra replica goes about things a little differently from most. The majority of Corba replicas are based on Ford underpinnings, while this creation uses that of a 1979 Chevrolet Corvette, creating what is known as a “Cobrette.” Powered by a high-performance 350ci V8 that the owner tells us was built by Skip White Performance, it delivers a reported 418 horsepower, all controlled through a Muncie 4-speed manual transmission. Finished in striking Ford Red with white stripes, this Cobrette is a fusion of retro styling and contemporary muscle.

Exterior and Interior

This 1965 Group Five Limited Cobrette Kit looks nothing like your regular ’Vette thanks to the Group Five Limited Cobrette kit. The main element is the body: crafted from hand-laid fiberglass and Kevlar, ensuring a lightweight yet durable construction. The Ford Red paintwork, accented by bold white stripes, provides a nod to the car’s roots. The car sits on five-spoke wheels from American Racing, which are wrapped in Cooper Cobra rubber. Inside, the black interior maintains a driver-focused layout, with classic bucket seats and period-correct details. An AM/FM radio adds to the vintage feel, complementing the performance-oriented atmosphere.

Engine

Under the hood, the owner reports that the 350ci V8 has been built by Skip White Performance. Performance upgrades include a Holley quick fuel carburetor, MSD ignition, and Mallory wires. The engine puts out a reported 418 hp, with power being directed to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission,

2008 Chevrolet Corvette Wil Cooksey Z06 427 Limited Edition No. 32

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$64,999
SOLD

Chevy’s C6 or sixth-generation Corvette was sold between 2004 and 2013. Designed by Tom Peters, the C6 was a comprehensive redesign of America’s favorite sports car. Out went pop-up headlamps, primarily due to tightened pedestrian safety regulations that made this iconic feature a nightmare to engineer. But that’s probably the only negative thing about the C6. Everything else is enduringly positive, from the increased passenger cabin space despite the shorter overall length of the car, the new and more potent V8 under the hood, the improved handling and dynamics, plus more good things. Chevy also brought out the Z06 as the successor to the C5’s ZR1 high-performance derivative. The Z06 came with a massive 427ci small-block under the hood plus several performance improvements. Today, we have a rather special variant, in the form of this 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Wil Cooksey Limited Edition #32. Up for sale in Overland Park, Kansas, this car has done under 10,000 miles and comes with Wil Cooksey’s signature. Just 505 examples of this special edition were ever produced, making it quite rare. Who is Wil Cooksey? A legendary Corvette plant head who worked his way to the top and left quite a mark on the Corvette for years after his retirement in 2008.
