1989 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Part of the fourth-generation C4 lineup, the 1989 Chevrolet Corvette emphasized advanced technology, handling, and refinement over raw muscle. The base engine was a 5.7L L98 V8 producing 245 horsepower paired with either a six-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. A digital instrument cluster joined by then-high-tech features like anti-lock disc brakes and a lightweight composite body to continue the fourth chapter of America’s iconic sports car.

This 1989 Corvette Coupe was delivered new to Woodruff Motor Sales of Woodruff, South Carolina, and has been refinished in metallic red over red leather upholstery. Its fuel-injected 5.7L V8 is mated to a four-speed automatic transmission and turns 17” alloy wheels.

Exterior details include a body-color removable roof panel, pop-up headlights, and power-adjustable mirrors. Inside, a Pioneer CD head unit is housed in the center stack, and the air-conditioning system has been converted to R134a refrigerant.

This C4 Coupe was acquired by the current owner in May 2013. It is now offered by the seller on behalf of the current owner at no reserve in New York with a framed window sticker, service manuals, a CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and a clean Iowa title in the owner’s name.
