Overview of 1979 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe For Sale by Owner

The Chevrolet Corvette is one of the most iconic sports cars in the world today and has stood the test of time, constantly evolving with each generation. Its modern iterations are sports car icons and its iterations of the past decades are some of the most desirable works of the American automotive industry. This particular 1979 Chevrolet Corvette has been well preserved. The current owner reports the engine is the original motor that the car drove out of the factory with and has 70,000 miles clocked in its name. Some updates have been made for greater visual aesthetics, helping elevate this particular Corvette to become the perfect car to enjoy while out on the weekend.

Exterior and Interior

The powerful, striking aesthetic of this 1979 Corvette works well with the black exterior. The vehicle's powerful lines, smooth curves, and powerful stance bring out an aggressive design language that is perfect for an iconic sports car. Minimal branding from Chevrolet on the car adds a touch of elegance to the vehicle, creating a vehicle that catches the eye of every passerby. This particular Corvette reportedly features new LED head and tail lights, which the discerning eye might notice. The tan interior of this Corvette works well with the black exterior. The current owner reports the windows to have new power switches, redone interior door panels, and a completely redone interior dashboard. For those concerned if this would take away from the retro aesthetic of the vehicle interior, fear not, for the retro look has been preserved, which is reflected in the new retro style radio which the current owner has reportedly installed. All this with comfortable seats and a great interior space, you're set for an enjoyable ride.

Engine

The current owner reports that this Corvette's massive 350ci V8 motor is the original one that was strapped to the front of this vehicle when it rolled out of the factory door. New chrome pieces have been added to the engine according to the current owner. All its power is delivered to the rear wheels using an automatic transmission. It rumbles, roars and growls throughout the rev range, which you can dance with should you claim this Corvette as your own.

1963 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible Restomod LS1

Current Ask
$85,750

This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible Restomod takes one of the most celebrated shapes in American sports-car history and updates the experience underneath without losing the visual drama that made the C2 Corvette iconic. Showing approximately 65,888 miles, this example pairs its Victory Red exterior and black interior with a modern 5.7L LS1 V8, electronic fuel injection, and a 4-speed manual transmission. Vintage Air climate control, Dakota Digital RTX instrumentation, upgraded suspension components, modernized braking hardware, and aftermarket wheels move the driving experience well beyond a stock early Corvette while preserving the low-slung roadster proportions enthusiasts immediately recognize.

Current Ask
$55,000

Few American performance cars have the visual drama of an early C3 Corvette, and this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod adds a serious dose of big-block attitude to that already iconic shape. Showing approximately 58,617 miles, it wears Tuxedo Black over a Black interior and keeps the unmistakable low-slung proportions, removable T-tops, and cockpit-style cabin that made the third-generation Corvette such a standout. The real story, though, is under the hood, where a 467ci V8 built from a 454ci block brings the car well beyond factory specification. With the current owner reporting 609 HP and 597 LB-FT of torque on 91 octane, this is the kind of Corvette built for someone who wants classic C3 style with considerably more muscle behind the throttle.

The 1977 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe represents the later evolution of the C3, and this example brings a particularly appealing ownership story to the table. Showing approximately 72,741 miles, it is powered by an L48 350ci V8 with a Quadrajet 4-barrel carburetor and a 3-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission. Finished in red over a black leather interior, it retains the classic C3 formula with removable T-top roof panels, Rally wheels, 4-wheel power disc brakes, and dual exhaust. Even more notable, the current owner reports that this has been a single-owner car and that they have been the sole driver since new.

Current Ask
$42,500

This 1972 Chevrolet Nova is the kind of classic that proves you do not need stripes, spoilers, or a big-block badge to have genuine muscle-era appeal. Showing approximately 53,285 miles, it pairs a 307ci V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor and 2-speed Powerglide automatic, giving it the easygoing, torque-rich feel of a traditional small-block Chevy cruiser. The custom orange finish gives the car plenty of presence, while Rally-style wheels, factory air conditioning, power steering, and power brakes make the package feel especially usable. It is a clean, straightforward Nova built around the formula enthusiasts still appreciate today: V8 power, rear-wheel drive, simple mechanicals, and unmistakable early-1970s Chevrolet styling.

1964 Chevrolet El Camino Restomod

Current Ask
$39,700

The El Camino has always lived in its own lane—part muscle car, part pickup, and all attitude—and this 1964 Chevrolet El Camino Restomod leans hard into the performance side of that equation. Showing approximately 538 miles, it wears a custom Burgundy finish over a Black Procar interior and packs a 383ci stroker V8 backed by a TH400 3-speed automatic. This isn’t a lightly updated cruiser; the build reaches into the engine bay, suspension, braking system, cabin, and supporting hardware to give the first-year El Camino a much sharper, more modern personality while keeping the long-roofline-meets-pickup-bed silhouette that made these cars so memorable in the first place.
