Default Looking to Buy 80-82 Vette

Looking for a well kept, low mileage, no performance, or body mods, auto, PDB, PS, AC 1980, 1981, or 1982 on the East Coast, prefer SE. Prefer a white/red car with stock alloy rims. Will consider all interior/exterior colors. Not a real fan of the two tone exterior colors, but will consider them. No dealers please.

Hi Joe,
I have a 1980 White / Red Interior for sale. It has a new stock L48 chevrolet crate engine with a rebuilt 700R4 auto trans. has new brakes & tires with less than 500 miles on them. the power train has less than 20,000 miles.I had the A/C converted to R134 when I put a new Compressor in it. That was a mistake since regular freon puts out better. Interior is almost a 10.have numerous recpts as to what has been replaced on it. it is a Beautiful daily driver with work in progress. let me know if you might be interested. I am going to put it on EBAY for 11,800 or best offer since it still needs some work. Can send pictures if interested

Thanks. Looking for a car that does not need more work or money spent after the sale.

Thanks CVM. Do you have more details, pictures, price, location. Looks to be a 1982. What is the date of the McLLELLAN award? Did you receive the award, or a prior owner?

Hi,

I’m selling my exceedingly clean, original 1982 Corvette with only 35,000 miles.

The car has most all factory options. Power windows, power door locks, power mirrors, power seats, power brakes, power steering, cruise control, air conditioning, and mirror T-tops.

It has a power chip, roller rockers, free flow catalytic converter, and high output ignition. It also has an upgraded Kenwood HD stereo and Alpine speakers.

All original parts were retained and go with the car including the original floor mats that have been kept in storage and aftermarket color matched mats installed to protect the carpet. Even the original factory spark plugs are included, which have less than 14,000 miles on them. The factory sticker is still visible on the oil pan.

We've had the car for over 10 years and have had to do nothing but regular service work. It has all Amsoil fluids throughout. Completely rust free car and is always garaged.

This car is beautiful and runs great. Just get in and go. It also has a clean Carfax.

I'm asking $17,500 OBO - I have many more pics I can send via email.

Hi Joe, I have a really nice numbers matching 1981 4-speed Corvette that has been totally updated. Asking $15K or close. All the work listed below has taken place in the last 5,000 miles. Complete drive-line rebuilt professionally by the shop that builds our late model stock car motors: original engine has been bored, line honed, new pistons, cam and valve train. roller rockers, 2 1/2" Tru-Ram cast iron exhaust manifolds flow better than headers and more dependable. Rochester quardrajet rebuilt by Hobbs Carb Guru's. Very streetable 375 HP. Transmission fully serviced. Original rear end has been rebuilt, removed factory 2.72 gears and replaced with 3.54 gear ratio. All new u-joints drive shaft and outboard shafts. The suspension fully rebuilt: new single leaf 360LB fiberglass rear transverse spring, new rear control arms with hub bearings, Bilstien shocks, bushings and stainless alignment spacers. New brake rotors and calipers and pads all around. New rubber bushings upper and lower front control arms, front 500LB coil springs. Spring set up yields 1" lower ride height. New Goodyear NASCAR tires and four wheel alignment. Everything on this car works with the exception of the wiper delay, could be fixed w new switch-never got to it-don't drive it in the rain. Paint is in good shape. looks great from 10' away. There are a few small scratches and defects up close. front and rear bumper covers repainted. Exterior color is Autumn Red with Medium red interior. Factory colors. This is a Bowling Green Kentucky car- Color coat/clear coat. I have factory air cleaner setup and radio and other items. This car has factory 2 1/2" 1963 side-pipe chamber mufflers with 1968 style fiberglass covers. Sounds awesome and all aluminized. Just now installed Mcleod clutch assy, throwout bearing and machined flywheel, new washer fluid pump, new water valve re heating
and A/C, new rear end snubber bushing. Car runs and shifts excellent. Car is always garaged and I am second owner. I drive it weekends but could be a daily driver as its that dependable. i have lots more pics if desired. Please reply with any questions and thanks for looking.

Joe, this is a long ways away, but if I was in the market right now for a late C3 it would probably be in my garage.

Good luck with your search.

Just a reminder guys, if you are offering your car in response to this WTB ad, it needs to have an asking price, thanks.
