1979 Corvette Registry Input Form

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The intent of this registry is to gather original corvette specifications as delivered from the factory for as many 1979 Corvettes as possible. In order to develop a statistical database, a large number of data entries are required. Please feel free to enter information, even if incomplete.

Accuracy is of paramount concern; if in doubt, select unknown or leave the section blank. I will accept data inputs from vehicle owners (current or former owners), from attendees at car meets and events or corvette enthusiasts who have had the opportunity to inspect the vehicle in person, discuss the original equipment and options with the current owner or learn about the vehicle from a publication. Please answer the questions to the best of your ability based on documented or known information. If you are unsure whether particular options or equipment were original to your vehicle in 1979, please do not include them in the original equipment sections. However, feel free to notate such information in the comments section.

Thank you for your participation.
