Ive always felt like my 80 was a pretty solid handling car..maybe its because Im familar with it...and I know what its capable of..its got good rubber,big anti swaybar..and always good newer shocks..bushings etc...

It was an '81. I had it at the Chicago VetteFest years ago, and the Editor of Corvette Fever saw it, and they did a story on it. I was going to keep it because I loved that car, but with it appearing in Corvette Fever it made sense to put it up for sale at the same time... (great ad: "... as seen in Corvette Fever this month, page...") got a couple great offers right away and off it went!
