For Sale: 1981 Chevrolet Corvette in Lutz, Florida

With its numbers-matching V8, a cool color combo, loaded interior, and the desired control of a four-speed, this 1981 Chevrolet Corvette offers a ton of appeal for quite a nice price.


A factory black car is an awesome thing. It even has tinted windows to give you a proper midnight attitude. It's the kind of coupe that you'll love to use to go lurking on the streets. So we particularly like the presentation that's quite glossy to show off the clean body lines, but the overall finish is driver quality. That's a positive for those who like to drive their classic without worry. All others should see the value price as a nice way to leave room in your budget to upgrade/update/personalize however you want. And this is really presented nicely from day one with snug-fitting T-tops, good weather-stripping, doors that close with confidence, and the desirable Corvette alloy wheels.


The silver leather interior is a great classic style that just really seems to represent this car's era well. And it also just gives this 'Vette the feeling of a silver bullet sleekness from the inside. And the trim tag tells us this coupe was born with this attractive color package. There are even nice details, like the plush carpeting, working dome light, and the storage bags for the T-tops. This came loaded with the factory features like power windows and air conditioning (it will need servicing to blow cold again.) Plus, you have dome worthwhile upgrades like cup holders and an AM/FM/CD stereo with aux input. And like a true Corvette, this really knows how to be a driver's car. You get a three-spoke sports steering wheel on a tilt steering column. Beyond that is the large gauge package in front and a full auxiliary readout panel prominently to the side. And the shifter falls where your right hand just seems to always want to be.


Under the hood is the numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch V8. It's an attractive-looking setup where you can also see it has some added polish on the valve covers and air grabber. It inhales deeply with a four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with nice power and authority as shorty headers feed a full dual exhaust. While most Corvettes of this era have an automatic transmission, this one gives you full control of the V8's power with the four-speed manual transmission. Add in the fully independent sports suspension, power steering, and four-wheel power disc brakes, and this classic 'Vette is a sharp classic cruiser.


This is the desirable black Corvette with a terrific driver's style. It even leaves room in your budget to let you personalize it for the ultimate classic. Call today!!!
