Last time we wrote about Regular Car Reviews, the man was having a few giggles in the DeLorean DMC-12. Now he’s going even further back in time to drive a 1979 Chevrolet Chevrolet.
The third-generation Corvette was getting a bit old in the late seventies and GM was already designing a new model, which would eventually arrive about four years later. In 1979, the base model came with 195 hp, while the L-82 option pumped 225.

Far from being spectacular in terms of power, the 1979 model reached an all-time high in popularity, with nearly 54,000 units produced. But enough with that, let’s see what Regular Car Reviews has to say about the car in the video below.

And if you're looking for more Corvette fun, make sure you check out the 2014 Stingray review we posted earlier this week.
