Are you sure regarding the CA sticker?
A 1979 emission sticker for a L-48 Should be either a CJ for L-48 Federal or CM for L-48 Hi-Alt or CR L-48 California car.
Also shown is a X6 Designation for a L-48 by NCRS standards but I think that is incorrect, as they also show a CJ for the L-82.
My books show the CA as being used on the 1977 L-82 car.
You can get new stickers as a set for $10.00 from Paragon Reproductions, sorry don't have website but their phone number for service and tech is 810-655-4641. Their catalog order number is 800-882-4688.
Best of luck in your search.

John,
I just rechecked my Emissions Sticker located above the brake booster it says CJ, but I noticed something I wish you would check at the very bottom of the sticker, very small type: This Vehicle Conforms to U.S.E.P.A. Regulations Applicable to 1979 Model Year New Passenger Cars. Does your's say this? I wish you would check this out, no book I have or catalog I have shows a CA for the 79 Corvette, only for a 77. Maybe other members would shead some light on this, I would like to hear from them. Also, per your first post regarding the hose emission sticker on the inside of the hood this sticker will come as a set when you order the emission sticker ( about $10.00) I wasn't able to find it by itself.
Let me know what you find out.
Save the burn out.
