FOUND IN A FIELD. GREAT PROJECT CAR BECAUSE IT'S ORIGINAL AND IT'S ALL THERE. 1980 CORVETTE L 82. I'LL DESCRIBE IT AS ACCURATELY AS I POSSIBLY CAN AND I'LL START WITH THE BAD AND END UP WITH THE GOOD. THE BAD: ENGINE HAS A KNOCK SO I'M SURE IT WILL HAVE TO BE REBUILT. CAR HAS BEEN PAINTED ONCE AND IT NEEDS IT AGAIN DESPERATELY. SHE'S ROUGH AS A NIGHT IN JAIL. THE LEATHER INTERIOR IS WELL WORN AND NEEDS REPAIR OR REPLACING. THE CARPET IS FADED REAL BAD FROM THE HOT FLORIDA SUN. THE DOOR PANELS AND SEATS COULD BE CLEANED UP AND USED DEPENDING UPON THE BUYERS INTENTIONS AND BUDGET.THE HORN BUTTON IS MISSING FROM THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE STEERING WHEEL COVER IS SHOT. THE ORIGINAL AIR CLEANER IS MISSING AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURES. I DON'T KNOW THIS FOR A FACT BUT FROM THE RECEIPTS I FOUND IN THE GLOVE BOX IT HAS BEEN ABOUT 10 YEARS SINCE THIS CAR WAS DRIVEN REGULARLY. BEFORE SPENDING YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY I SUGGEST HAVING THE CAR INSPECTED BY SOMEONE YOU TRUST OR COME TO SUNNY FLORIDA AND CHECK IT OUT YOURSELF. NOW THE FUN PART. THE GOOD, AND THERE'S LOTS OF IT.AS MOST CORVETTE FOLKS KNOW THE L82 IS A LIMITED PRODUCTION SPORTS CAR AND AN ORIGINAL ONE FROM 1980 IS DESIRABLE AND COLLECTIBLE. MOST IMPORTANTLY THE PRICES HAVEN'T HIT THE SKY YET SO THEY ARE VERY AFFORDABLE. THE ENGINE IS THE ORIGINAL MATCHING NUMBER UNIT AND IT IS UNMOLESTED EXCEPT FOR THE MISSING AIR CLEANER. THE VALVE COVERS ARE ORIGINAL, AIR CONDITIONING COMPRESSOR IS STILL THERE WITH A BELT ON IT AND EVEN THE SMOG PUMP IS STILL REMAINING. EVERYTHING UNDER THE HOOD LOOKS PRETTY MUCH FACTORY ORIGINAL . THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION LOOKS ORIGINAL BUT I DIDN'T GET UNDER IT TO CHECK THE NUMBERS. PRETTY GOOD BET THAT IT'S ORIGINAL. EVEN THE WHEELS ARE ORIGINAL BUT MISSING A COUPLE OF CENTER CAPS.. THE VIN NUMBER OF THE CAR IS 17876AS431203 AND THE ENGINE NUMBER IS AS431203. THE CODE IS VO501ZBC. GRASS HAS BEEN GROWING UP AROUND THE CAR SO I REMOVED AS MUCH AS I COULD TO CHECK THE FRAME. I USED A FLASHLIGHT AND THE FRAME LOOKS EXCELLENT FROM WHAT I COULD SEE. MORE GOOD NEWS: LOTS OF STANDARD FEATURES AND SHE'S OPTIONED OUT REAL NICE WITH THE ORIGINAL DELCO AM-FM CASSETTE STEREO,POWER STEERING, POWER DISC BRAKES, TILT AND TELESCOPE STEERING WHEEL, POWER WINDOWS,POWER DOOR LOCKS,REMOTE MIRRORS ON BOTH DOORS,T-TOPS,POSITRACTION REAR END,HIDEAWAY HEADLIGHTS,ALUMINUM FACTORY MAG WHEELS AND I'M SURE I'VE FORGOTTEN A FEW THINGS. IF ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CALL STEVE AT 772-201-1905 TILL 11PM EASTERN TIME. I WILL TAKE ALMOST ANY KIND OF PAYMENT BUT THE FUNDS MUST CLEAR BOTH BANKS BEFORE I CAN SHIP OR RELEASE THE CAR. I HAVE A CLEAR FLORIDA TITLE IN MY NAME. I TRAVEL A GOOD BIT THROUGH FL, GA., SC, NC,MS,LA,TN, AND SOMETIMES TX SO I MAY BE ABLE TO HELP WITH DELIVERY IF I'M GOING YOUR WAY. I'LL ASK FOR SOME $$ FOR FUEL AND MY TRUCK BUT I WON'T TRY TO KILL YA ON THE PRICE. THIS CAR WOULD MAKE A GREAT FATHER / SON RESTORATION PROJECT OR JUST A FUN DRIVER. SHE'S GUARANTEED TO INCREASE IN VALUE YEARLY LIKE SO MANY CORVETTES.THANKS FOR LOOKING, GOOD LUCK BIDDING AND GOD BLESS.
