I found another one today... a red/light doeskin '79 L-82 automatic. I've noticed this car sitting in the front yard of a house near where I go walking with my dog. This afternoon an older guy was out in the yard pulling weeds so I asked him about the Corvette. Turns out he bought it from the original owner in 1980 with 10,000 miles. It now has around 100,000 and it's been sitting for four years. It's a bit more weather beaten than the '80, but pretty similar condition.... he said it runs well but it obviously needs paint and interior. Good straight body, never hit, original engine. He wants to sell it because he feels badly that it's just sitting out and he knows he won't get to it. He doesn't know what he'll want for it so I left my name and number.
