1980 Corvette Goodguys Nashville Nationals 2015

[@jusfadez5920]

To me one of the best body style corvettes ever.

[@ScottieDTV]

Really!?!?!....

[@jusfadez5920]

ScottieDTV I said one of them Scottie. I like the curves on the car and from a sleek styling point it stands out.

[@iron-farmer]

ScottieDTV He said best ever. si

[@TCM215]

From 1968 or was it 69 to 1982 did the C3 body change? Or was it the same?

[@thearchane4885]

@@TCM215 it changed almost every year. From a bumper change, to even something as simple as changing the left and right blinkers from grey to orange.

[@billdollarmovie140]

I always thought this generation corvette was the coolest ever. This one is all that and then some, makes you really want to own a C3 Vett.

[@ScottieDTV]

Thanks for checking this one out here!!

[@19chucki74]

The C3 Corvette is the most underrated generation, but this will change the way auto enthusiasts look at it. Love your closeups of the highlights, Scottie! Another good one.

[@ScottieDTV]

Chalres Kirkland I agree...I know I won't look at one the same way!

[@hotrodder5034]

Scottie my bro-in-law has a 79 and a 07 drop top Vette sitting in his garage. The 79 needs lots of work. He and his cousin have been tinkering with it. They replaced the brakes and got it running. It has lots of potential! Love those style of Vettes! Nice One!!💪💪🤘

[@ScottieDTV]

Cool...Thanks for checking this one out here!!

[@Baldhengarage]

Was truly a work of art one you had to see in person

[@ScottieDTV]

EODxNINJAx James I agree!!

[@calvincooley1074]

These cars have great potential.

[@ScottieDTV]

And know I can see it...lol

[@MrTimdtoolman1]

I always thought that body style looked good but that one looks really sharp.

[@ScottieDTV]

Tim datoolman I like them now!!..lol

[@bud385]

Tim datoolman NO DOUBT that car looks SWEET!

[@tfjack97]

Just ran across this video from a few years back, DAM what a Vett. One slick car for being stock body. Don't want to say I am in love with it, so let's I am in heat. Thanks Scottie.

[@ScottieDTV]

lol..I hear ya Brother....cool car for sure!!!

[@dannyhyde7019]

The C3 was such a sexy car. Beautiful car you have there

[@ScottieDTV]

Not mine...I just shoot the videos...Glad You liked it though!

[@kjaze]

Love the car, hate the low-profile wheel set-up. Still effin' beautiful!

[@terrymcendree3899]

I HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WAS UNDER RATED OUTSIDE !!!! GREAT LINES, THANKS MY BROTHER!!!

[@ScottieDTV]

Right on...This one gave Me a new appreciation...You're welcome!!

[@calvincooley1074]

Done right, done tight! I'm glad they kept the stock steering wheel. I'd love to see one of these late C3's with the fender flares.

[@ScottieDTV]

Thanks for checking it out....Glad you liked it!

[@utooberblooper]

really starting to accept and LOVE the 3rd gen vettes from 68 up to 80

[@ScottieDTV]

+trillriff-axegrinder Right on!

[@talkingvegetable3538]

up to 1982

[@whawhaification]

Exactly!

[@HARMARSCH2]

That car is a piece of art.

[@ScottieDTV]

HARMARSCH2 For sure!!

[@kjbadass]

Great video Scottie what really blows me away about this car is that it's a 1980 Corvette. and they were able to put a 700 horsepower motor in the car ! that means to tell me that was a car with that much horsepower that kind of body style you better just hang on and fly! I gotta stop watching these Corvette videos because you're giving me a fever corporate favors that is lol. Stottie I like to apologize to you because I spelled your name wrong in the last comment did I made to you. keep up the good work can't get enough of the videos

[@ScottieDTV]

Kenny Nabors Glad you enjoy the videos Brother!

[@WykedStrat]

Wow, what a gem!

[@ScottieDTV]

WykedStrat For sure!!

[@56hueycobra]

I've Always Like the C-3 Corvette ScottieDTV and This is a Great Looking One and Very Cool 🚁🚁👍

[@ScottieDTV]

I really like this one too...

[@56hueycobra]

+ScottieDTV : You Have a 1968, or 1969 C-3 Corvette?

[@ScottieDTV]

Bennie Mabe A video?

[@56hueycobra]

+ScottieDTV : YES On Your KZbin Channel 🚁🚁👍

[@ScottieDTV]

use the search on www.ScottieDTV.com I'm sure I have...

[@corvette25hi]

Eye sore Corvettes? Dumb remark, they're the best looking body style of all the generations and you don't need to modify anything.

[@ScottieDTV]

lol..You must have one...

[@whawhaification]

He doesn't need to have one to have an opinion.

[@KORUN666]

You made my day, sweet corvette here, kind of daily driver i like ahaha, no seriously really cool thks for sharing

[@ScottieDTV]

Rock & Roll Mixx Glad you enjoyed it Brother!!

[@txturbo930]

Looks fantastic!

[@ScottieDTV]

txturbo930 I agree!

[@bbd468]

Man, i love it!!! It damn sure isn't an eyesore.....that would be around a 1985-95 Corvette....IMO! lol

[@ScottieDTV]

Mac B Very cool for sure!!....and I think that 84 is year that brought the Vette back to performance

[@bbd468]

ScottieDTV Well, the looks didn't match the Performance in my Opinion 85-95. I grew up with 'Corvette Summer' and wanting a 70-80 Corvette or Vette Stingray. To me, that was the SH*T! :D

[@ScottieDTV]

Mac B I agree there were better....But when you got into a 84 vette...after what we had just been through...it was like WOW!..lol.....and they have been getting better ever since....I'm sure we can agree on that..lol

[@bbd468]

Oh yea, we can agree! YES, Common ground we have! lol

[@ScottieDTV]

Mac B lol..Right on!

[@ziggylothbrook8644]

I have always Loved the Look of these Vettes....it wasn't Mentioned but I would think the pumpkin and axle shafts have to be New or At least seriously built to handle the HP and Torque.... Awesome would be proud to own and drive this car.. nice work Scottie

[@ScottieDTV]

Thank you...Glad you enjoyed it!

[@whawhaification]

The 80-82 Dana 44 differentials can be built to withstand some decent horsepower. Just ask Mike Dyer from Texas to build it for you with one of his custom caps and you will be kicking 550+HP ass no problem!

[@keithsclassicgarage1133]

Love it! I have one now.

[@ScottieDTV]

Cool..Thanks for checking this one out here!!

[@Lovejazz01]

That's badass! If I could afford it I would find a Corvette from that generation and do the same thing, that is cool! My best friend from high schools dad had a black '79 with red interior, I always wanted to know what happened to it, I wish I had it! Nice work, and I love that black Riviera in the background wish I could see a vid on that, also! Love your vids Scottie!

[@ScottieDTV]

Lovejazz01 I agree....this is now a cool car for sure....Didn't get the Rivi.....but I have shot a coupe of others...I dig them to!

[@marc_simmons]

The 1980 model is my favourite year for the C3.

[@ScottieDTV]

Cool!....Thanks for checking this one out here!!

[@boninm252]

The guy said that this style Corvette is and I quote eyesore Corvette. is he crazy? I have an 80 myself and I think it is the best looking body style of the older Corvettes.

[@ScottieDTV]

Thanks for checking this one out here...

[@Kderan698]

I have a 1981 vette and not loving the performance. So I am thinking about putting a 383 stroker with 500hp and an EFI, or should I go with an expensive ls3/6-speed set up @ ghost sniper.

[@ScottieDTV]

Ls baby...there is a reason everyone puts them in everything...and use a take out...it will not be expensive...

[@MarvelousSeven]

I want that car. Wow.

[@ScottieDTV]

lol..Right on!!

[@studio-flash]

Chrome bumper C3 are the best..but the late C3's are cool..but engine hp was limited. Put a LS3 in it with 700hp..haaa wow!!!!!! This car looks so cool. Imagine seeing this coming down the road? The interior looks like an updated C3 if it was still in production in the mid 1980's..haaa I'd like to see it burning rubber.

[@ScottieDTV]

Cool Car for sure...Thanks for checking it out!!

[@mcinkyt]

The C3 is a great looking car but ''performance'' in the 70's was a Decal package

[@ScottieDTV]

mcinkyt Right on...

[@iron-farmer]

gee i wonder where i can soup up me car. oh wait its merica. so whats the problem?

[@andrewbanas3036]

Beautiful!!

[@ScottieDTV]

I agree!!

[@BCBell]

Wow! Just.....simply..........WOW

[@ScottieDTV]

BC Bell I agree...very cool for sure!!

[@74pbg]

Best looking generstion ever!

[@ScottieDTV]

Thanks for checking this one out here!!

[@78tranzamman43]

LOVE all BLACK!! You ROCK ScottieD!!!

[@ScottieDTV]

78 Tranz Am Man Thank you....Glad you enjoyed it Brother!!

[@stryf3901]

As a kid, all I ever wanted was Michael Keatons Bat-mobile...I’ll settle for this👍

[@ScottieDTV]

lol....Right on...Glad You liked it!!

[@brandonreeh1637]

thanks for the reply do you know their Facebook I couldn't make it out in the video

[@ScottieDTV]

[@NoHaBi02]

I know I'm late, but if you are still able to reply to this then please do. I'm probably about to get a 1980 vette, and I dont have much experience with older cars. Especially older sports cars. Do you have any pros and cons on this car? If so let me know. I really like the body style, and from what I've heard it's great for cruising. Thanks!

[@ScottieDTV]

I just shoot the videos Brother....Good luck with yours!

[@NoHaBi02]

ScottieDTV Thanks!

[@ScottieDTV]

Your welcome!

[@whawhaification]

No, it didn't have a cross-fire to begin with because that was in the '82

[@safetymichael9388]

I had this same care and sold it for 8,000.00 a few years ago. Mine was stock but 100% original mine was dark green. If I would have seen this I would have still had it.

[@ScottieDTV]

I think the value is going to increase on these and I agree....This one makes me want one to!!

[@whawhaification]

Why would you keep your Vette if you viewed this video first? You didn't like your Vette enough, so you sold it....no amount of videos or magazine articles showing customization should make you change your mind.

[@whawhaification]

too

[@brandonreeh1637]

what was the guys website? I have a 81 Corvette that I want to put a LS3 in I wanted to know if they can give me some pointers.

[@ScottieDTV]

You could follow them on Facebook....But please keep in mind...this is what they do for a living......

[@3migsu]

wooow i love that mode of Corvette, actually is my favorite, mm how is the cost of a vette 80, 81, + or - like that one? regards

[@ScottieDTV]

+MigSu pue ram Glad you enjoyed it...One like this is going to be a bunch!!

[@MementoNKS1]

Im in the processes of picking 1 up around here in LA,its going for 8,000-13,000 all working fine and only needing minor work done to then

[@TheWhatuprichie]

I got mine for 5500. solid engine and non leak t-tops. buncha little things to fix but it was no issue at all

[@3migsu]

Richie Leggett ok, nice

[@number1pappy]

Very nice!!...and that's from someone who doesn't like vetts!

[@ScottieDTV]

Right on...Cool is Cool....

[@brandonreeh1637]

[@royshaw9299]

[@ScottieDTV]

All I know is in the video....

[@ghostsniper3223]

Really nice Vette and specially inside... But the wheels doesn't match... I 've got exactly the same one ( 1980 ) with a modified 454 and 6 gears manuel gearbox... A really bad ass SLEEPER ;-)

[@ScottieDTV]

+Ghost Sniper Cool..But I think they nailed this one!

[@ScottieDTV]

+Ghost Sniper Cool Car...But there are things I don't like about it...but I know it's your baby and what I think really doesn't matter so I will keep that to myself...Cool Car Brother....Rock on!!

[@ismaelvelez82]

It's perfect

[@ScottieDTV]

Ismael Velez Glad you liked it!

[@whawhaification]

"...the eyesore of Corvettes" Really? I don't think so.

[@transrus1]

Go stare at Honda Civics then ??

[@whawhaification]

I guesss so...LOL!

[@iron-farmer]

i have an 1981 there aint nothin wrong with it afaic

[@Guy-mx4fb]

great style but just cost to much to modify, and in California with emissions how they are, it's not that easy to just drop in a bigger engine

[@ScottieDTV]

Should be able to drop any California approved LS in it....Providing you can get the LS in that crazy state...lol

[@Guy-mx4fb]

ScottieDTV anything after 75, requires smog here, had a friend with a 76 corolla 2 door he threw in a tundra v8,and had to get it registered with chp,dmv to get it to pass smog.. with ridiculous red tape fees at first

[@ScottieDTV]

that's the same as the rest of the country....But Cali has always had stricter regulations to the rest...and I live in the the south...We don' have anything.... Just the way I like it...lol

[@billcorreia1638]

Best body style

[@ScottieDTV]

This one is cool!

[@kareemjones3329]

They need to make those rims black

[@ScottieDTV]

I'll let them know!

[@patrickjohnson7801]

There's a few cars out there That are over looked

[@ScottieDTV]

They have to be done right....

[@The1withlogic]

I have always believed the 80 was the sexiest of the vettes just had a dog of a motor.

[@ScottieDTV]

I like this one!

[@danielreyes34dr]

Cool car But No Guts but you can always Do A Heart Transplant

[@ScottieDTV]

Thanks for checking it out!!

[@joracer1]

You say the c3 is the eye sore of corvettes, what kinda crack are you smoking, the c3 all years are considered by most all people, car nuts or not the best looking years. Kinda makes the guy that build this car sound a little out of touch..

[@ScottieDTV]

lol..That's funny...that's why they bring so much at auction....

[@stayoutofourairspace4163]

I do not like the rims.like the original

[@watever6742]

stayout ofourairspace you cant get that stance with the stocks wheels or it wont look that good for sure.
