Its an 80-81. The 82 had a crossfire badge on the side, and the 79 and older model had a single side marker light, also 1980 was the first year for the front wheel flare to be molded into the body.
This is for sure a 78-82 model vette. Notice the rear bubble type window...this was indicative of a 78-82 C3 vette. The 68-77 vettes had a notch back type of window, it was a straight vertical rear windows in those years....this car has the bubble type rear window. Also, the badging behind the front tire says StingRay, however Stingrays were finished in 1976, so this was an add-on badging after market. My best guess without seeing the rest of the car is that this is a 1979 Vette.
neo196910 i don't think it's a blown head gasket at all..... judging by the heavy coat he's wearing i'd say it's below freezing level. and everyone knows a tuned motor runs like shit when it's cold in the morning's.. hence why everyone warms them up first before travelling anywhere useful
i agree with sagarasouske and zellx59, it really needs some maintenance! if you own a car like that you should take care of it like its your baby. otherwise give the car to me :P
o sorry " u fail" I was just being funny, do u think I was actually that stupid to think that's you actually spell "fail" ? lol whatever, its all good : )
yea thats the only time I've ever used the "ph" spelling of fail in any of my comments, idk y I decided to use it randomly for this comment lol must have been one of those MANIC MONDAYS! or something like that lol, whatever, its in the past, and now ,I feel right with the world...sort of : )
In 1968 the "Sting Ray" name was not used, but returned in 1969 as a single word "Stingray" until 1976, the last year in which the name was used. 1978 saw a 25th "Silver Anniversary" edition, the first Corvette Indy Pace Car, the introduction of a "fast back" glass rear window. -Wikipedia Anything else is a fake, I talked to a guy with a 77, and he had stingray badging, but he said it was just that, badging, it wasn't a real Stingray.
c3 are all the same thing !! they just differ in bumpers and small differences..so every c3 can be called a stingray even though GM did not continiu call them like that............
OMG i need these so bad...i have a 79 vette and they would look as sexy as the grls who would be in my car if I HAD SOME SIEPIPES...all the cheap imitations suck...and for the stock lovers...yeah the originals look cool, BUT OMG 4 into one Hooker Pipes just kill everything else...beautiful...nice color too.
I love , this car....id love to ride thru the desert ,heading into vegas at 105 in the broad day light.

thats not a stingray. chevy started putting the hatchback style rear window on the corvette in 78 and they dropped the stingray designation after 76.
