It was the only time Chevrolet offered the body-colored nose with the rear chrome bumperettesand#44; and legendary designer Larry Shinoda had said that this was his intentions for the C3 from the beginning (it just took them five years to get there.) And of courseand#44; a bright red Corvette is the kind of iconic appearance that everyone loves to see when it arrives on the scene. The respray is only about 10 years oldand#44; and it was done with a meticulous hand. So it still gives you that nice prideful shine on any Sunday morning wash-n-wax. Theres plenty of great brightwork besides the aforementioned bumpers. It includes the rocker panelsand#44; rear luggage rackand#44; and the distinctive YJ8 aluminum wheels.

As the driver you get a three-spoke steering wheel. Just ahead of that is the large dual pod gaugesand#44; including the tach. Just to the side are a full set of auxiliary readouts for a true sports car experience. The engine looks correctly stock right down to Chevy orange paint on the blockand#44; correct air cleaner assemblyand#44; and chrome distributor shield. Its even believed to be running the original four-barrel carb and the original heads can be included in the sale. But look closerand#44; and you can see the beltsand#44; wiresand#44; and hoses have all received proper care over the years. So its an engine bay thats highly detailed for originality but still very functional – making this Corvette the ideal balance of show and go. The motor fires up with easeand#44; and the TH400 three-speed automatic was intended for any heavy-duty use the Corvette could throw at it. And thats what you want in a Corvette like this. It was built to be drivenand#44; and thats enhanced by features like the fully independent sport-tuned suspension and four-wheel disc brakes. Bargains existand#44; and this Corvette is proof.
