Chevrolet is known for making consumer-grade cars for the masses, and it all started in the early 1900s. But in 1953, General Motors produced a two-door, two-seater, and lightweight sports car to be marketed under the name Corvette. It was the first of its kind in the American market and became widely popular among car enthusiasts. The third-generation Corvette, also known as the C3, was introduced in 1967 and went on to be produced for another 14 years. With its iconic styling and thrilling performance, it was the car of choice for the astronauts astride the Apollo 12. Up for grabs today at Exotic Car Trader is a 1980 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe with just 55,000 miles on the clock.
Exterior and Interior
The C3 was born in the era of the space race and was heavily inspired by spacecraft, with the low swooping front end and pop-up lights flowing smoothly to wide fenders housing large tires to give superb handling. This example is finished in a beautiful red paint job accented by subtle chrome trim and new foam moldings. The car sits pretty with a low stance from the factory and wire wheels wrapped in fresh new tires. Behind these gorgeous polished wheels are new brakes to provide errorless stopping power, along with a recent wheel alignment to keep the car planted. The removable T-tops give the best of both worlds: a wind-in-your-hair cruiser as well as a downright speed machine capable of taking on any weather. The driver-focused interior has been preserved beautifully, and the red leather seats are still intact.
Engine
Many engine options were available with the C3 from the factory. This 1980 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe is equipped with a 350 cubic inch L48 V8 engine, which produces 190 horsepower. This engine was mated to a 3-speed automatic transmission. A lot of work has been done under the hood of this car, such as a new alternator, valve covers, air intakes, and a recent oil change. Along with the maintenance the current owner has installed new chrome garnishes in the engine bay to make it look the part as well.
