1980 L-48 Chevrolet Corvette -White – Coup
This 1980 C-3 Chevrolet Corvette purchase in 2016 with goal of restoration. So, we had a local auto-shop make the corvette road worthy by, first, inspection of what should be down for safety. These cars only came one way at that time: loaded, so notable features include power windows, A/C (needs to be serviced or replacement with R134 system), AM/FM/cassette stereo radio with power antenna, and a tilt/telescoping steering column, power brakes, power steering.
This 42K mile (not validated) Corvette (VIN-1Z878AS412086) has a salvage title due to rear panel damage that exceeded the insurance appraised value.
