1985 5.7L V8 16V Automatic RWD

1985 Chevrolet Corvette Additional Info:

More than just a loaded V8 classic, this is a survivor-grade 1985 Chevrolet Corvette that still has its original paint and has averaged less than 1,700 miles annually. So you're looking at a lot more appeal than the affordable price would ever suggest. Two-tone blue is a rare option that was only offered for two years and there were less than 3,000 done in total! This factory-correct color is also the original factory-applied paint, and the level of presentation today tells you this one has always been cared for correctly. Even the pristine condition of the iconic turbine-style wheels tells you they were careful with every parking job. This is combined with the straight body panels that let the light roll evenly across this slick C4 body, so don't be surprised if the condition of this original two-tone wins you awards all on its own. The festival of blue continues inside. In fact, the blue sports cloth seats are another great rare and original option â€" and it gets this '85 Corvette's rarity closer to 1 in 1,500 ever made! And even if you do find another one optioned like this, you'll be hard-pressed to find one so fantastically preserved. So you'll love showcasing the nice interior with the glass targa roof out. But also you're going to love driving it. There's something special about turning the key and watching the digital gauge package come to life. After all, there is no cooler piece of 1980s tech, and so all enthusiasts look for ones as crisp and correct as this one. In fact, the whole interior presentation has everything a survivor enthusiast could want. That's because its loaded with features like power seats, power windows, power locks, alarm system, trip computer, and the factory Bose AM/FM/cassette stereo. Even the air conditioning (now upgraded to R134a) is in place and blowing cold. So while this is a survivor-grade Corvette, it also is a great classic to cruise all year long. The C4 was always meant to showcase its motor. After all, few factory vehicles will let you tilt the whole font end forward to give everyone a clear view of the fuel-injected V8. On a vehicle that has been so original thus far, you'll be happy to know this is the numbers-matching L98 350 cubic-inch motor. Everything is correctly presented, right down to the belt diagram still attached to the front cowl. Not only were these motors one of the bright spots in the horsepower-zapped '80s, but it produces the kind of head-snapping torque that made you the first one off the line. That's why we're so excited about this car. Its comprehensive preservation makes it an ultra-desirable collectable, and it's also still a great driver. With a four-speed automatic transmission w/overdrive, four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, cruise control, and a fully independent suspension, this Corvette still has all the right features to be a great weekend getaway machine. A distinct classic like this needs the right paperwork. So the sale also comes with the original window sticker, owner's manual, service manuals, and maintenance records. It's amazing something this distinctive and respected can also be so affordable. We know something this desirable won't stay long, so don't miss out. Call now!
