Description
1980 Chevrolet Corvette – 5.7L V8, Black on Black, 26,000 Miles, 2 Owners
Offered for sale is this sharp and well-preserved 1980 Chevrolet Corvette, a true icon of late C3-era American performance. With just 26,000 miles and two documented owners, this Corvette presents in excellent condition throughout, showing the kind of care and preservation rarely seen in examples of this vintage.
Finished in black over a black interior, this Corvette exudes the timeless muscle car stance and sleek, sculpted lines that made the model a standout in the 1980s. The 1980 model year introduced a lighter, more aerodynamic body with a revised front end design and improved interior ergonomics. This example retains all the hallmarks of that transition—refined styling, driver-focused comfort, and road-ready performance.
Under the hood is the original 5.7-liter V8 engine, paired to an automatic transmission, offering the perfect balance of power and cruising ease. The car starts effortlessly, idles smoothly, and delivers solid acceleration with the deep, unmistakable tone of American muscle. Suspension and steering are tight and composed, and the car drives exactly as a low-mileage, well-maintained Corvette should.
The black interior remains in excellent condition, with clean dash panels, well-preserved trim, and factory-correct upholstery. All gauges are functional, and controls show minimal wear. This car has not been heavily modified or altered, allowing it to maintain its factory-correct charm—ideal for collectors or anyone looking for an unmolested classic.
With its long hood, aggressive stance, and Corvette legacy, the 1980 model continues to draw admiration and remains one of the most accessible ways to enjoy vintage performance in a recognizable American package.
