Hi Rick,
Welcome to the forum and congrats on the new Vette! Can you post a pic?
There is no other place to find option info on your car, but by 1980 most Corvettes were pretty well loaded. What specifically were you interested in? And what's the color combo of your car?
As far as the squeak....pretty hard to cyber-diagnose. Could be anything from a brake sqeak to wheel bearing or axle u-joint.
And try not to think of it as a money pit. It's more like an investment in insanity.
:lol: :lol: :lol:
Good luck, Greg
