Used 1979 Chevrolet Corvette for sale in Gilbert, AZ

1979 Corvette "The Peak Year" 1979 for Corvettes was a big year! Corvette production hit it's peak in 1979 at 53,807, a record that stands to this day! The 79 saw the crossed-Flag emblems on the nose and fuel door revert to those seen on the 77 model. In 1978 the pace concept car carried three features that where made into the 79 model making this a special iconic corvette. The new bucket seats, the front and rear spoiler package, and the glass roof panels. All T-tops were now wired into the standard anti-theft alarm system. Tungsten-halogen high-beam headlights became standard as did an AM-FM radio, and for the first time a cassette tape player could be added as a option. A wide-ratio 4-speed was available for all cars. Noteworthy is that about 82% of the cars were ordered with manual transmissions in 1968. In '79, less than 20% of the cars were delivered with manual gearboxes. This 1979 corvette is rust free with a clean body everything is original has never been restored. Its all original paint. The pain could use some TLC but other than that this corvette needs nothing and is great to drive.
