Get the original factory build instructions for late C3 Corvettes in a convenient digital format. This set is a faithful reproduction of Chevrolet’s internal Assembly Instruction Manuals (AIM)—the same documents used on the line to build 1978–1982 Corvettes. Each year’s manual delivers factory-original diagrams, part layouts, torque specs, fastener guides, routing and sequencing—exactly how GM assembly technicians executed production in St. Louis (’78–’80, partial ’81) and Bowling Green (partial ’81, ’82).
