Very nice 1979 Corvette L48 4 speed93,000 original miles
Ok here is what I know about the carI bought it from a guy who let the car sit outside here's Florida...he bought it from the original owner.....when I picked it up I really enjoyed working on it....I always wanted a C3 corvette...it is a great drive quality car...not a show piece
The good
The car starts right up! It drives beautifully and shifts through the gears like butter
The frame has surface rust...not bad...driver quality Bird cage is also in good shape...no rust anywhere I could see
The interior cushions need to be replaced ( see pics).Windows go up and down but can be slow at times
Paint has small chips (see pics)
The engine runs great with no unusual noisesIt has never been modified and is In Original condition
Trans shifts like butter
What I have done to itFirst I went through the front end and replaced all the the upper and lower control arm bushings, lower ball joints, new shocks and stabilizer links...Bought 2 brand new front tiresThe upper ball joints are nice and tight so I didn't replace themThe power steering control valve has a leak. I have a new one that will be included in the sale
I put a brand new shifter boot, bezel and a/c switch in the car
What needs to be fixedFuel gauge isn't workingTach works but is all over the placeThe car needs the rear trailing arm bushings replaced.... I don't drive the car long distances because I don't want to damage the rear bearings.... Which are fineIt can be taken for a test drive but I would not drive it to its new home....it should be towed
