Value of 3:08 rear for 80-82 ?
Hi, I don't usually visit the C3 forum but I'm here today for some information.
I have a 3:08 rear end dated 1979, with batwing, that came with the deal to purchase my C4 (1989) a couple of years ago. I've been storing it in the garage ever since. The outside looks to be in good shape.
I took it into a local Corvette shop to have it checked out.
I am told fits 80-82, and needs bearings and center pin.
I would like to sell this rear and I would like to know what it might sell for "as is".
Can anyone give me an idea of the value?

You could try calling a Corvette wrecking yard and ask for a quote (like you're interested in buying), on a rear end that fits 80-82 and needs bearings and center pin. That should give you a ballpark estimation.

If it needs a rebuild then you won't get much for it.If you just want to dump I'll take it for a vette tech class I run in New Haven.
If the center pin is shot, the yokes are too. Bearings can be purchased
at a bearing house or NAPA. The earlier C3 housing are stronger.
