This 1981 Corvette is a strong example of the last carbureted C3,
and it presents very well for its age. The car has been resprayed
in gloss black with white pinstriping, giving it a clean, classic
look. It rides on its factory aluminum wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich
Radial T/A white-letter tires, which suit the car perfectly. The
glass mirror T-tops are in great condition; the pop-up headlights
operate as they should. All exterior lights work properly, and the
chrome exhaust tips finish it off nicely.
Inside, the interior has held up well for its age. The seats appear
to have been reupholstered at some point and present nicely. The
windshield wipers function properly, and overall, it's a
comfortable and driver-friendly cabin. The only items not currently
working are the radio and the blower motor, which is pretty minor
for a car of this era.
Under the hood is the L81 5.7L 350 V8, rated at 190 horsepower,
backed by a TH350 automatic transmission. The car shows 67,608
actual miles, supported by a clean Carfax and title. Mechanically,
this Corvette has had a complete suspension and brake rebuild,
including all new brakes with drilled and slotted rotors, new brake
calipers, new upper and lower control arms, new rear leaf springs,
sway bar and end links, rear trailing arms, all new U-joints, and
new emergency brake cables. It drives tight and solid, making this
a well-sorted C3 that's ready to be enjoyed by someone who
appreciates classic Corvettes done right.
