@RICKYBOADA ** This is my car **
If you're looking to get into a classic car but don't have a big budget, or simply want something affordable thats different for weekend drives, then a Corvette C3 is a great option. This is at the bottom of the range for an entry level classic car that looks like you spent way more than the actual cost. These cars have yet to grow in major popularity within the enthusiasts world because they honestly don't drive all that great. The steering wheel is a little off centered, the driving position isn't too comfortable, and the mirrors are almost useless, haha. None the less, the car holds a major cool factor and can be an easy "flip". You can pick up these cars for $5,000-$7,000 and sell for around $10,000 solely just by freshening up the way the car looks. Remember, the price is always dictated by what people are willing to pay for something. I hope you guys enjoy this review and a few things to look for - feel free to reach out if you need help with purchasing or opinion on flipping a car, even properties!

Great Vid! Thanks man! YES! these cars are a great value!! Bought a 79 with a cherry body on it all orig paint. Rest of car needing total restoration. Have installed new gas tank, sender unit, cleaned and repainted the frame, installed kilmat heat and sound deadening. New brakes all around, currently have the rear differential out to replace with rebuilt one, replacing all rubber bushings etc. New mufflers, new rims. Gutted the interior, super easy to do and will replace. Next power steering rebuild. Have restored many cars in my day. These cars are super easy to work on and I can't believe how much attention it gets everywhere I drive it, its crazy! Even the women go nutz for it!!! Absolutely one of the most beautifully designed cars ever!

The biggest problem with a C3 is it's on a C2 frame so the suspension is an old design but it does work well when upgraded with polyurethane bushings. The great thing is any GM Crate engine will fit. He mentions the A/C and that was always an issue in the C3. Later models worked better than early bumper cars but it never worked well.

Really enjoyed your candid enthusiastic C3 video. Interesting how you upgraded the front and rear. Was it just a bolt on swap? You have me even more excited to keep working on my project that is almost done. A 78 C3 with a new rebuilt motor with only 5000 miles on it. No rust issues what so ever. New windshield. Power windows. I have to go through the brakes and then put some sweet new tires on it and I am on the road. All of the AC components are there so I might eventually get that cold air flowing. Look forward to following on RU-vid Ricky.

How on earth you got that car in that condition that cheap? I know everyone like to throw shade on the car because they don't have much power from the factory but there is no way you are getting one with upgrades for that price. Mine is an 82. People want to trash the crossfire injection system but of the late C3's it has the most power and reliable EFI as long as it is properly maintained. Granted upgrades are extremally limited on the Crossfire system due to the tiny intake runners. However if you install a nice street cam and swap out the EFI system to Holley, FAST, Fitech, or Edelbrock you can make decent power. Or go extreme like I did. I installed a 550hp 427 small block from Tri Star engines, upgraded 700R4 built for racing, Steeroids, rack and pinion, Hydroboost brakes, high performance pads, drilled and slotted rotors, upgraded suspension and all new interior with dynamat, keyless entry, and Dakota digital gauge system, auto lights electric headlight conversion, retained power accessories and Kenwood sound system.

There's nothing more expensive than a cheap Vette. Glad you were able to find one that runs for $5000, but to fix everything that's wrong with it, could get VERY expensive. The rust starting to bleed through the lower windshield pillar is not a good sign. If the birdcage is rotted out, I'd get rid of it while it's still running. I've owned a '82. The C3 is one of the most beautiful Corvettes ever built. No one can deny the curves. I'd love to own another one (I currently have a '89 convertible).

@Yankeededandy62 4 года назад
Yes, they are cheap, at least the 74 and younger ones. Cheap and easy to maintain? Only stuff related to the engine. The rear end with its independent suspension, the disc brakes with the integrated drums for the parking brakes, really well hidden rust spots beneath the shiny fiberglass body are all money pits and PITAs. If you let "knowledgeable" Chevy mechanics work on a C3, good luck with that. Most of them screw up on the Corvette specific stuff. A little example? The clutch for the 4-speed manual may look like a regular Chevy item. But the throw out bearing is Corvette specific. It will work somehow with the wrong one, but not for long. Stuff like that is one of the reasons, C3s are fairly cheap compared to Camaros, Firebirds etc. of the same generation. And they don't drive that great? I beg to differ: A well maintained C3 will run rings around anything from the 60s or 70s. But they will drive like crap, if they don't get enough maintenance (bearings, brakes, rubber bushings).

thx for showing the C3 love! the 2 big places to check for rust - the body mounts behind the kick panels and the rear frame kickup where the control arms pivot, both of which are deal breakers unless its some special C3, like a big block 4speed. Windshield frame can rust too. Same platform from '63-'82, and these were raced *a lot*, so they can be made to handle just fine. I own a '74 L82, and they are fun cars...C3's used to be the trailer-park Vette (now that belongs to C4 and C5!) but are coming up value as this level of style will never be seen again.

Buyer beware when a corvette is hacked up and pieced together. It usually means it was wrecked. The lower rear will wear out the inside edge of the tires as they are now canted inward. Btw, those rear links are installed wrong but it looks like a fun driver.

Sadly from 2030 on all combustion cars including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing all conventional fuel stations to only one state operated central gas station per city or county. Now they even want to slow down all the gas pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute...From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime. "Bundesabgasbespaßungsverbot" in German. :-////()(

ssdtrain1 haha car literally sits like a quarter inch from the ground and when I got it, it was looking like a 4x4. But you’re right probably not a whole 4 😂

Had an 1981 Corvette ... looked much better than it was ... engine was around 175hp and had a real hard time even getting much over 100mph.. once topped it out at 123mph ..and the last 10mph took several miles to reach, LOL. Still the C3 body style was AWESOME, still is.. and the C4 never will be, LOL

I wish I watched your video last week. Took me 2 days to figure out why key stuck. Previous owner didn't know why I'm having trouble. He never told me about the key lock. Still learning things about my car. Good video. Thanks.
