Default Pics Added...1979 L-82 4sp. 27K Miles...Pics Added

The good:
1979 L-82 4sp.
27K miles.
Dark blue with dark blue leather.
AMFMCB
Glass tops
clock works and is quartz
AC
Power antenna
Power windows
Power Locks
Rear Defog
Factory Spoilers
Tilt/Tele
New oil pan gaskets and valve cover gaskets
New tires 255-60-15
New Shocks and 4 wheel align
Original paint and interior as far as I can tell.
Excellent condition on the inside.
Good condition on the outside
Garage kept and covered.
Frame is good, no rust.

The depends on your opinion:
Hurst Shifter
Smog Pump off But in box
Chrome Open Breather
Chrome PCV breathers
Aftermarket Western Wheels
Holley 650dp
Edelbrock Performer RPM
Light springs in distributer and aftermarket ignition module and coil

The bad:
AC doesn't work. Haven't looked at it because I frankly don't use it.
Radio signal is weak, but; functions
Paint is OK, shines up good, but; some spider webbing.

Probably some other small things that I'm leaving out.

Very good Vette, runs great.
It sat for 13 years prior to me buying it. Hence the low mileage.
Comes with car cover too.

This thing runs great!! Someone needs to buy it.

$17K

Here are some pics.
Looks like I need to vacuum it. . .

Just a suggestion, it looks from the one picture that you've got a very nice car. For that kind of money for a 79 L-82 I would expect an engine bay that I could eat off of and a very clean if not completely detailed undercarriage. I would also expect everything to work including the A/C. I'm not saying you dont' have a detailed engine and undercarriage, but if you do, why not show it. I too have a 79 L-82 4spd and mine is not worth nearly what yours is, it's got very nice paint, runs great, but is not detailed under the hood or undercarriage and also my A/C doesnt' work, as well as the mileage not being anywhere near what your low mileage is. From what I've seen, I think mine is worth 10-11K. Again, I'm not saying yours isnt' worth that much, and not in any way trying to bash your car, I'm just saying show us some more if it is.

You know, I'm not in the market for the car either, but I would like to see more of it too! Show it off man. It looks good so far.
