Nightrider ◊ 2006-09-17 15:03	I remember different front end on '79...anyway car is after '76 so it's not a Stingray, just Corvette

And in Nightrider's thumbnails, the 2nd one shows a 1980 rear, but the 4th one shows the 1979. 1979 and 1980 were the only two years to have the Dark Green color on this generation.
