1979 Corvette C3 5.7 V8 Auto L82 model

I personally imported this car from Alabama 5 years ago. It was bought new in Birmingham Alabama and stayed there till brought it to the UK so its always been in a sunny climate. The guy I bought it from was the second owner and was only selling due to old age/ill health and not being able to get in and out of the car. I went to his house to view the car and everything checked out good just as he stated, so I bought it. I'm still Facebook friends with the chap although he's got older and a bit frail (he's had a stroke) I can still ask him questions if need be. I'm the only registered keeper in the UK. The first owner had a little booklet and used to write everything and anything that was done to the car from new… Even down to a bulb change. Its only done 44,000 miles at present and I have the original build sheet and a pile of paperwork including that little book. It's in beautiful condition given that it's mainly original and not been restored. The car has had paintwork done in the past and to a very good standard but like I said earlier it not been restored so you can use this car without being afraid like you would a trailer queen.

L82 was a factory optional upgrade for bigger horsepower, it's basically a 4 barrel carburettor, aluminium intake and rocker covers, 4 bolt mains, forged pistons, high compression heads and a high lift cam, it has disc brakes all round and a LSD, the engine pulls and sounds as it should and the gearbox changes seamlessly with no delays.  Viewing is highly recommended as the pictures do not show the car to its full potential. £19,995. Part exchanges are welcome. This car may not be the cheapest car out there but I think you'll struggle to find another as genuine and as nice as this one.
