1979 Corvette Adult Owned Garage Kept
Had this car since 1979, second owner. It is white, with red interior. The interior has been restored and looks great. The paint has been kept original and has held up great, but isn't perfect. Could use a paintjob, as the paint is over 30 years old. Original engine, balanced and blueprinted. It is automatic with about 87k miles. New battery, tires, and brakes. Has cruise, tilt, and CB radio as well. $9,000 firm.

The first owner drove it for 6 months, moved to Lubbock, and then got married and needed something practical. Thanks for the kind words! I'd like to get this sold quickly. Willing to listen to reasonable offers.

I got my 2008 Z06 with hardly any miles on it because the wife said either get rid of the corvette or her.
Wife: 1 Z06 Corvette: 0
Me:
But, I just sold it a couple of weeks ago, but not over a girl.
I think your car will sell. It does have the "WOW" factor and the owner history is amazing!
Also, I love the CB radio. BREAKER 19, what is the 20 on them smokey bears?

I don't have any underside pictures as of right now. I could for a serious buyer. Original A/C and it works, thanks for the interest!
