1979 Chevrolet Corvette Custom Coupe
Why This Car Is Special
The Chevrolet Corvette (C3) was a sports car that was produced by Chevrolet for the 1968 through 1982 model years. Engines and chassis components were mostly carried over from the previous generation, but the body and interior were new.
The grey 1979 Chevrolet Corvette custom we have at Skyway Classics saw the return of the crossed-flag emblems on the nose and fuel door as well as three popular features introduced on the '78 pace car replicas, the new bucket seats, the front and rear spoiler package, and the glass roof panels.
Our 79 has seen a restoration with paint and interior, original wheels, Cooper Cobra tires, custom Greenwood hood, front and rear upgraded to 81 models, and dual exhaust.

Mechanical
The engine in our Vette is the base 350 cubic inch L-48 engine which generated 195 horsepower back then. Output for all engines increased due to new "open flow" mufflers.
The engine has chrome valve covers, chrome performance intake, 4-barrel carb, Mallory performance ignition and distributor, and Edelbrock chrome air cleaner assembly, air conditioning, and sits in a nice engine compartment.
Our 79 Vette rides on Cooper Cobra GT Radial tires mounted on the factory wheels, with a great exhaust note emanating from the true dual exhaust system tips in the rear.
Interior
The custom red/black interior features “high back” seats with great side bolster and provide easier access to the rear storage area, and the seat pair resulted in a weight reduction of about 24 pounds.
It has a red factory dash with all the performance gauges, tilt wheel, red leather steering wheel, red carpeting and red floor mats, great stereo system with its AM-FM radio, power windows, power seats, great matching red door panels, power windows and locks, and the automatic shifter in the red factory center console.
Exterior
The darker grey paint looks great with the custom Greenwood fresh air hood, and the front and rear upgraded to 81 models.
It is a one-of-a-kind treatment that will attract a lot of conversation when you are at the car shows.
The bolt-on front and rear spoilers were offered as an option and functionally the spoilers decrease drag by about 15% and increased fuel economy by about a half-mile per gallon. The roof T-tops are painted a matching grey body color also.

    I had a 1974 Dodge Dart Swinger 2-door hardtop in that same seagreen color.I bought it in 1975 with 8,000 miles on it. It cost $2,700 and I took a 3-year loan with monthly payments of $90.00. I was only earning about $6,000 a year then and it took me the whole three years to pay it off. I had the car for 14 years and only got rid of it in 1989 because the oil pump broke in a place I could not stop and the engine suffered serious damage as a result. But the car went 14 years 110,000 miles all in the New York metropolitan area with bad roads and bad weather that really took a toll on cars. In the 14 years I replaced virtually every mechanical component on the car including two transmissions, several exhausts systems, numerous brake jobs, not to mention annual tune-ups with new points, plugs and condensers. It still amazes me how today’s cars go a hundred thousand miles with no major work needed and much less regular maintenance. Back then it was assumed you would need to fix major components every 10-15,000 miles. My Dart was seagreen with a green vinyl top and whitewalls, had air conditioning, auto trans, power steering and brakes which for that time was a well equipped car. After ten years i repainted the car in a color called emerald green metallic by a local shop. I also put aftermarket wire wheel hubcaps on it and though it was a ten-year-old economy car it looked sharp and i would get compliments on it. Aftermarket cassette deck stereos were big back then with young guys and I installed several in the Dart over the 14 years because they would break every 3-4 years and would need replacing. This Dart has an identical dash and seats from what I could see and really brings back memories. I kept the dart so long because I didn’t have the money to replace it back then but for what i paid in repairs over the years I probably could have bought a new car. I’m 71 now and have had many cars since, including a Mustang GT, a couple of Corvettes and an Infiniti G37 coupe. My current ride is a 2022 Infiniti Q60 which is like a spaceship compared to the old Dart. But I still have fond memories of my emerald green Dodge.
