Description of 1979 Chevrolet Corvette C3 2 Door Coupe T-Tops

1979 C3 Corvette (Ray). Located in Boise. ID. about 10 minutes from I-84 in S. E. Boise. Down to business! (This is a descriptive read. worth doing if you are serious about bidding on a cool Vette!) (My records. receipts. & invoices are intact and complete. ) This Vette has NEVER had ethanol in her veins!I purchased this Vette in 2003. $14500. 00. I'm the 3rd owner of this girl. 53K original miles. Approximately 5 months after I obtained the Vette. she blew a head gasket. Not wanting the original under-powered 225HP engine. or caring about matching numbers. I had a custom. 375HP (Dyno Tested @ 417HP) engine built for her! Presently. (& since the engine drop) she has approximately 1300 miles on her. Easy. break-in miles giving the engine plenty of time to polish up & performance tune. (I have changed the oil & filter x3. since the engine drop. ) Castrol 20/50 racing oil. SAE. Dinosaur Base. 95% prepped for paint! As you know. after you spend huge money on a paint job for classic cars. some idiot will key it or you get plastered by rock on the freeway. Also. these glass cars heat. expand. contract. seemingly always cracking the paint. I was going to put a cheaper paint job on her for all the above. Besides. this is a Vette. a great Vette. and a symbol of American Heritage like Harley. but. she is not a super classic. So do not sweat the matching numbers or original cigarette lighter issue!The Power Plant: Dyno tested at 417HP with rebuild representing 375HP!
