Stripping Down My C3 Corvette Interior | 1980 Build Progress!

Описание: Today kicks off the interior teardown phase on my 1980 C3 Corvette. We're prepping the cabin for some major upgrades — including new carpet, sound deadening, and eventually a roll cage.

Let’s just say... the current carpet and padding? Total yuck. It felt amazing ripping all of it out and making room for what’s next.

If you’re into classic muscle, C3 builds, or just enjoy a satisfying teardown, you’re gonna like this one.

This is what I believe I spent on this build (roughly)

Car bought in 2015-ish for $6000
New Motor $8000
New Trans/Clutch/etc around $6000
A Bunch of Summit parts $5600
Wheels $900
Top Flight Automotive stuff $8700
Parts Devyn bought and got reimbursed for $8650
Labor $16,550
Random stuff from Amazon $2200
Headers, Fan, and bunch of stuff from BRP Hot Rods $4000
So I think in total this baby is in the realm of $67,000
Spent over the course of 3 years. Welp... it's good to face the truth. I have been lying to myself for years on how much this actually cost.

And I have the full interior and exterior left to do!
