Chevrolet Corvette 1980 Description

A 'Vette is meant to be an all-around great driving car. So when you check out this 1980 Chevrolet Corvette, look beyond the bright red paint and value price to see some great all-around features like the A/C interior and rare four-speed stick shift.Of course you want your Corvette in red... they're so iconic they write songs about it. There was a nice repaint of its factory-correct red just to make sure you get a nice gloss in the sunshine. And nice paint is really needed on these later C3s. They have a sleeker and more modern look than the cars of the earlier years. This style is really gaining a nice following as people begin to appreciate the features like the sporty front air dam, distinct rear spoiler, and clean chrome-free body. So, to watch the red dance over each curve as the light rolls evenly across the tight panels gives this car an instant sexiness. While the body opts out on most chrome, the optional factory-style aluminum wheels makes sure you have plenty of brightwork to be a true all-American.Inside, the black leather seats weigh less than earlier C3s, and they fold flush with the rear trunk area for better cargo functionality. For the driver, there's a comfortable leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel. Beyond that is the large speedo/tach package in front, and a full gauge cluster prominently to the side. Like any good Corvette of this era, it comes loaded with power windows, tilt/telescopic wheel, electric rear defogger, and the original AM/FM 8-track stereo for cool originality. But the best feature has to be the T-tops. The tinted glass is great in all weather, and on sunny days, these allow you to open your Corvette up to the world. Plus, with the upgrade to modern R134a air conditioning, you get to stay cool while looking cool.Under the hood the 350 cubic-inch V8 motor looks exceptionally honest and well maintained. The most versitle and adaptable engine of its day beats as the heart of this red Corvette. Add ons are always available for such a great motor. That means you can develop a sold hit of power low in the rev range that gets your heart racing, and the dual exhaust growling. Plus, while most came with automatic transmissions, this one gives you the most out of the V8 with the control of a four-speed manual. Add in the fully independent sports suspension, power steering, and four-wheel disc brakes, and this classic 'Vette Is capable of some very modern moves.Here's a turnkey Corvette that always turns heads. This one has the great looks, premium features, and nice performance to provide value well beyond its affordable price.
