Isn't the 1979 Corvette just a beautiful design? :yesnod: It's so unappreciated, too. You can put it in a show, and unless it has some sort of major modification, it just gets ignored.

I have a real 31,000-mile Bloomington Gold survivor Corvette in Corvette Red. If you have any questions, ask away! :D

I applaud your good taste in buying one of the most beautiful series of Corvettes ever created, the fabulous Sharks! :thumbs:

Enjoy! :seeya

I've noticed this too at shows. Oh well, on the street my '79 gets so much positive attention, who cares what all the car show snobs think.

I'd love to see some pics!
