Just and interior kit (original and worn out) and clean up under the hood and put all the right trim and shielding on it. Original engine, all #s match, etc... Factory air but no belt so probably needs all gone thru the HVAC system.

Congrats!
Now you need to add one from each generation so you have a proper set.

Not a GM guy, but don't mind me a 'Vette. Guy that was in the Corvette club in TN where I used to live would AutoX his that was about that same year.
Congrats and enjoy.

Yes, best of that era for sure as the chrome bumpers look great compared to the plastic ones in my opinion.
Nice car!
Cheers,

Looking good. I picked up my '80 last year. I picked it up since it was a 4-speed. I've always liked the C3s.
