Background Story of this 1979 Chevrolet Corvette

Overview of 1979 Chevrolet Corvette For Sale by Owner

Chevy’s C3 or third generation Corvette was around from 1968 right up until 1982. It weathered the Malaise Era with poise, remaining one of the fastest American cars during those dark times. Chevy kept updating and improving the C3 throughout its lifetime, too. This meant that even later-model C3s had plenty to offer. Take this 1979 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe as a prime example. It’s painted in lustrous Coca Cola red and packs the requisite 350ci V8 under the hood. Plus, it’s got under 10,000 miles and resides in Brownsville, Kentucky. Talk to us if you’d like to make it your own – because a C3 Corvette in good condition is a fine way to enter the world of classic American cars.

Exterior and Interior

Coca Cola Red. That’s what this 1979 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe wears, showcasing its muscular and potent looks with panache. The design, penned in the early Sixties, still looked jaw-dropping over ten years later. Of course, Chevy kept honing and chiseling at it over the years. For example, 1978 saw a new fastback rear window design, and 1979 brought a few more nips and tucks. All that is visible on this lovely machine, replete with period correct silver alloy wheels on equally correct Cooper Cobra Radial G/T white-letter tires. And how can we forget the pop-up headlamps? The interior of this 1979 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe features a color theme simply called Deer Skin. That’s not to say the interior is actual deer skin, don’t worry – it’s just the color. The dashboard and center console feature wood trim, while the seats are the new lightweight high-back units that were standard for 1979 cars. There are some auxiliary dials in the center console, plus a Corvette-branded radio with cassette tape player and four-speaker output. Behind the seats lies the cargo area which is accessed by folding them down – you don’t get an external trunk lid in the C3 to avoid spoiling those clean lines.

Engine

This 1979 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe has a 350ci V8 under the hood. We aren’t sure if it’s the base engine or the high-performance L82 option. Either way, you’ll reportedly have about 200 horses, give or take, and at least 280 lb-ft of torque. A 4-speed manual transmission is used to send all this to the rear axle.

1967 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible Restomod LS3

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$199,992
SOLD

Chevy’s second generation or C2 Corvette is one of the shortest in the Corvette’s story. It saw just five production years, namely 1963 to 1967. Yet, the C2 is recognized as a defining moment in the Corvette’s journey, bringing features that endured for generations. It marked when the Corvette would forever be a V8-powered machine, and only have V8s under the hood. It brought pop-up headlamps to the party for four decades thereafter. Most alluringly, it created an achingly beautiful shape that modern Corvettes haven’t quite been able to pull off – they’ve all tended towards muscular and angular – or a combination of the two. Today’s 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod LS3 is a fine restomod that’s truly a one-of-a-kind machine. Sitting on a SRIII Motorsports Round Tube Chassis, this ‘Vette enjoys a 480-horsepower GM LS3 V8 with fuel injection, a Tremec 5-speed manual gearbox and so many other neat things. The current owner says that just 800 miles have passed since the build of this car was completed.

2022 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe 1LT Twin Turbo

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$79,499
SOLD

Chevy’s C8 or eighth-generation Corvette debuted in 2020 with a new mid-engined design, supercar-inspired looks and a new level of performance, overall. The new LT2 small-block V8 makes 490hp and 465lb-ft in stock form, which is a mild increase over the C7 on paper, but translates to vastly improved acceleration and drivability as a result of tuning and the new 8-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox which the C8 comes with. But what if you want to make that naturally aspirated unit into a forced induction beast? Well, you get something like this 570-horsepower 2022 Chevrolet Corvette 1LT. Tuned by Elited South Tuning and fitted with a Huron twin-turbo kit, this rear-wheel drive beast could be yours. It’s up for grabs in Greer, South Carolina with under 5,000 miles on the clock. The original window sticker, two keys and owner’s manual are included with the sale as well.

1971 Chevrolet C10 Cheyenne 10 Super

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$34,995

In the Seventies, trucks like this 1971 Chevrolet C10 plied back and forth across America’s roads, carrying cargo and supplies for countless small businesses and entrepreneurs. Essentially, these trucks were a significant part of the backbone of American commerce, in urban as well as rural areas. They were built tough and utilitarian, but had reasonable comfort to allow their owners to carry their families within the passenger cab as and when needed. This particular truck comes from the second generation of the C/K Series which ran between 1967 and 1972. IT’s got just 1,237 miles on it after some refreshment work, and is available in Spring, Texas. That makes it a fine classic truck to own and drive if you’re inclined towards such vehicles.

PENDING SALE
$17,499

The R129-generation 300SL marked Mercedes-Benz’s modern reinvention of the SL as a safety-focused, high-speed grand tourer rather than a raw sports car. Engineered with exceptional structural rigidity and advanced safety systems for its time, it delivered a refined open-top driving experience that emphasized comfort, stability, and long-distance usability. With over 62,000 miles, this example reflects regular use consistent with the model’s intended purpose as a capable touring roadster, while the naturally aspirated M103 inline-six continues to provide smooth, linear power delivery suited to relaxed yet confident cruising.

Traditionally, the BMW 6-Series was the Bavarian automaker’s finest luxury two-door model before the flagship 7-Series full-size luxury sedan. That all changed in the 1990s when the 8-Series came to be, but even now, you can buy a 6-Series grand tourer. So let’s check out a fine example of the first generation, that ran between 1976 and 1989. This 1987 BMW 635CSi is up for sale in Davenport, Florida, and if you want to know how great it is to drive, consider its 179,000 mile odometer reading a true testament to its excellence. Don’t worry if it seems a little leggy by number; these BMWs are built solidly, and with requisite maintenance, can keep going. And it just takes one look at our photos so see that this car has received some pretty good care.
