The third generation Chevrolet Corvette sports car is a rare guest on our roads. This generation of the Chevrolet Corvette is considered truly iconic. The long hood, bulging fenders, pop-up headlights, and four round taillights became the main style features of the Corvette for a long time. The Chevrolet Corvette C3 was produced from 1968 to 1982.

The 1981 model suffered from eco-standards and rising fuel prices, so its 5.7-liter V8 develops only 190 hp, although in earlier versions its power reached up to 370 hp. Judging by the photo, the Chevrolet sports car received a new exhaust system. Previously, the car was sold for $45 thousand. Notably, the car has Ukrainian license plates. By the way, not so long ago in Kyiv, another Chevrolet Corvette C3 from the early ’80s was spotted.
