Paging Marty,Contis Corvettes.......

[Z51JEFF]

Hey Marty,I'm looking for a low mileage 1980 L-82 if you happen to have one layin around. I would have sent a PM but couldn't find you.

Jeff,
No 1980 at the moment.
A fantastic 82 and 75!
Neither an L-82, an L-81 and L-46.
However, I will keep you in mind!
Here is the link:

The style of the C-3's is as fresh today as it was in the Fall of 67!
Best of luck in your search!
:cheers:
Marty

I didn't see that one, thanks for the tips. I almost bought a 74 Roadster but the deal fell through.

Hi, this one was just posted today, not far from me (but definitely far from you!). Not low-mileage, but looks clean.

Thanks for the tips everybody. If it's still there I'm going to go look at a car that's about an hour from me. Cars got 32,000 miles but it's a 305 car,cars sold new in Ca had 305s while the rest of the Country had 2 350s. Not too crazy about the 305 but if it's too clean to pass up I just might bring it home.

This is not an L-82 though. The L-82 in 1980 had an emblem on the outside identifying it as such.

I'm looking at a few,one being a 1975 convertible with 11,000 original miles,both tops one owner parked in a garage for 40 years. Do appreciate the tip👍

I found my car,not an 80 but the choice was between the 80 or a 74/75 convertible. I put a deposit on a 75 convertible,original owner and 11,000 original miles,cars been parked in the garage since 1978 on NON OP. Cars got both tops,L-48 and I believe the only time the soft top was up was recently when the hard top was removed. To only thing with the car,the back bumper fell apart,common problem on the earliest soft bumper cars and the carb needs a rebuild but rooms smooth. When I can remember how to post some pictures I'll do that. Thanks for all the tips,greatly appreciated. And my Z,it ain't goin nowhere,I just might pull it out of the garage and drive it. I pick up the new car in a week.

Here's the 75 convertible I bought. Original owner,both tops and 12,000 original miles. I believe this is the first time the soft top has ever been out of the top well,it still has the care tag on it on the lower left corner of the top.

An original soft top will be lightyears different than any reproduction. The jock strap on the B pillar, windlace, bow strap, material, date coding on the rear window, etc. A reproduction is totally unlike an original.
Congratulations!
Beautiful car, BTW:)
