Chevrolet's roots date all the way back to 1911 when Louis Chevrolet and William Durant started it. The company's target was to beat the Fords Model T as the best-selling car in the United States, which was achieved in 1928 with Chevrolet International. What made Chevrolet what it is today was the Chevrolet Corvette, a two-door luxury sports car introduced in 1953. Throughout the decades, Corvette has earned the title of America's Sports Car. Currently, the Chevrolet Corvette is here to stay in its eighth generation. The C3 Corvette was produced from 1968 to 1982 and is the generation Corvette in the line. A rare chance to own a 1979 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray with just 52,000 miles on the clock and waiting to be taken by its new owner.
