Major Options / Build:

Additional Description: AUJTOCHOICE Is Yours Dot Com, LLC, is proud to present for the 2nd time, 12 years from each presentation, 2008 to 2020, with only 770 miles difference between. Car was sold to my brother-in-law who resides in Abbotsford, BC, Canada. The odometer is still in mph. The car was always garaged with the exception of one year (about 6 months) when he was building his new home. The before photos, about 85, at the beginging are separated by our logo and statement with 33 photos of now. The before and after photos pretty much tells the story. The car must go through Adesa Auctions in Richmond, BC to process for re-entry back into the USA. The time frame for this is approximately 40 days at the most. Shipping would be calculated from Mt. Vernon, WA where the car will be in quaentined for a period of 30 days (included in the 40 days stated above). Car must be bought without personal inspection do to the CV19 sitituation however, a commercial inspection I am sure can be aquired for your personal satisfaction. Anyother questions, please call/text Don at .Owner's comments:"Since I bought the car from you in 2008 I have only put on about 1,000 miles. Garage stored with cover on except for one winter. Still never driven in rain. Always starts up just fine - I start it minimum of about every 2 months. Battery is near new and oil changed, and everything has always worked fine except the power door lock button. Last time I checked, clock still works, pop up lights do work fine, and even the power ariel and AM/FM cassette work fine. All original condition exterior and interior." More added about the engine compartment: "One thing I should bring to your attention though is the fact that about 5 years ago, a mouse ate 3 of the connections on the top of the engine, likely for nesting material. This was back when it was in the garage where I lived in Abbotsford for many years - somehow a mouse had gotten in the garage once. I did have a Chevy dealer give it a full safely check on it about 2 years ago including to see if the mouse had done any other damage and was told that everything else was ok. Those connections are not available as new parts so they suggested finding them from a wrecked car. The picture of the engine that I sent you was after this damage but does not appear in the picture. I will now send you the pictures that shows it clearly. I never tried to find replacement parts. I did buy some strong duct tape that is the right color. and I could tape those connections closed if you think I should. Otherwise everything is just like I bought it."

More about the C-3Chevrolet Corvette (C3)From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia1980–1982[edit] 1980 Corvette CoupeIn 1980, both front and rear bumper covers were restyled with brand new integrated aerodynamic spoilers that resulted in a significant reduction in drag and increased radiator air flow. The hood was also restyled as well. The crossed-flag emblems disappeared from the front fenders and were revised to a more elongated style on the nose and fuel door. L-82 emblems moved from the hood to the front fenders on cars ordered with the optional high performance engine. This was the finale for the L-82 Corvette emblem, now producing 230 hp (172 kW) but it could not be mated to a 4-speed, as the manual gearbox was offered only with the L48 engine option. The speedometer in all cars read to a maximum of 85 mph (137 km/h), mandated by a new and controversial federal law. Air conditioning became standard, as did the tilt-telescopic steering column, power windows, exterior sport mirrors, and the convenience group. New was an optional roof panel carrier that would mount to the rear fastback deck.[37] Many weight-saving components were introduced including thinner body panels and an aluminum Dana 44 IRS (Independent Rear Suspension) differential and crossmember. The new lighter unit replaced the arguably stronger cast iron GM 10 bolt IRS differential.[36] In line with further weight savings, the aluminum intake manifold associated with L-82 engines since 1978 was now installed in all cars. For the first time, due to California emission considerations, a unique engine application was installed in cars delivered to that state and was mandatory. This motor was a 305 cu in (5.0 L) V8 engine rated at 180 hp (134 kW), fitted with new tubular stainless steel exhaust manifolds, and mated to an automatic transmission, also mandatory. The carburetor and ignition timing were controlled by Chevrolet's new Computer Command Control system. The smaller displacement engine was not available in any other state. California buyers were credited $50 as consolation but had to pay for the California emissions certification which was $250. For comparison, the L-48 350 cu in (5.7 L) engine, standard in the other 49 states, was rated at 190 hp (142 kW). The base price increased four times during the model year raising the cost of the car by more than $1,200 to $14,.[6]In 1981, there was only one powerplant available, a 350 cu in (5.7 L) engine that, like the L-48 base engine the previous year, produced the 190 hp (142 kW), but was now designated the L81. The motor was certified in all states and available with manual or automatic transmissions. Chrome air cleaner lids and cast magnesium valve covers dressed up all engines. The stainless steel exhaust manifolds and computer control system introduced on the 305 cu in (5.0 L) California engines the previous year were now standard, as was an auxiliary electric engine cooling fan. This, the last C3 available with a manual transmission, so equipped, had a published 0-60 mph in 8.1 seconds. This model year was the first corvette to use a fiberglass rear leaf spring, now a Corvette trademark. The spring saved thirty-six pounds, but was limited to base suspensions with automatic transmission. When equipped with Delco's brand new optional ETR (Electronically Tuned Receiver) radio with a digital clock, the quartz analog instrument panel clock was replaced with an oil temperature gauge. The cast aluminum wheels, optional since ’76, were now ordered on 90 percent of the cars at a cost of $428.[6] New options included a power adjustable driver’s seat and power remote outside mirrors. In mid-1981 production shifted from St. Louis, Missouri to Bowling Green, Kentucky, and several two-tone paint options were saw the debut of the "Cross-Fire Injection" fuel delivery system. This TBI (Throttle Body Fuel Injection) was not the type of fuel injection installed previously in some C1 and C2 Corvettes. It utilized two throttle bodies combined with Chevrolet's computer control system.[6] The engine produced 200 hp (149 kW) and was mated to a new four-speed automatic transmission with torque converters bypass in the top three gears. Compared to the previous Turbo-Hydramatic 3-speed, the new 700-R4 transmission had a lower first and second gear for improved low-end acceleration, and a fourth gear overdrive that would reduce engine RPM by 30 percent at highway cruising speeds, resulting in better fuel economy. On the downside, the new transmission was not considered a strong unit and proved problematic.[38] The final model C3 Corvette's published performance numbers were 0-60 mph in 7.9 seconds-the quarter-mile in 16.1 at 85 mph (137 km/h). This was the last year for 8-track tape availability and new "cross-fire injection" emblems appeared on front fenders. Nose and fuel door crossed-flags emblems changed to a more squared 1982 Chevrolet knew this would be the last year of an entire generation of Corvettes and so commemorated the occasion by offering a Collector Edition with separate serial number sequencing, silver-beige paint, unique wheels patterned after the 1967 model's bolt-on alloys, and an operable rear hatch window.[39]
