Testarossa Lookalike: 1984 Chevrolet Corvette

Every so often, a car shows up that feels like it escaped from a VHS tape instead of a Craigslist ad, and this next featured Chevrolet Corvette is exactly that. Underneath, it’s a C4 Vette with a 5.7-liter V8 and an automatic, but on the surface, it’s wearing a full Ferrari Testarossa body kit straight out of Miami Vice. The look is equal parts Maranello fantasy and Midwest fiberglass ingenuity, with side strakes, pop-up headlights, and glossy red paint. Find this 1984 Chevrolet Corvette offered for $5,400 in Lakewood, CA via faceterrosa vettebook.

You won’t find one like this
I have this nice 1984 Chevy corvette with a 5.7 liter automatic. It has a Ferrari Testarossa kit installed. The car looks so different than any other car out there. The paint is still in good condition. Engine and transmission good. I just drive from San Diego. No overheating. This is a clean title car. C4 corvette. This car is considered a classic car so you pay very little insurance. There isn’t one like it very rare and nice to ad to your collection. Interior will need some work but everything is there. Brakes are good and tires are 80% or better. I get compliments wherever it goes. Clean title. This is a project car. Mostly cosmetic.

Bad
Some chipping on paint
No AC
Front windshield has a crack but only on far left corner
