This 1981 Corvette is a great opportunity to get into a classic C3 Corvette without spending collector-car money. Finished in a custom burgundy metallic paint job, this Corvette has a unique look and presents very well. The paint shows nicely overall and gives the car a sharp appearance wherever it goes.

Mechanically, the car runs and drives very well. It starts easily, drives down the road nicely, and is a solid, enjoyable classic that can be driven and enjoyed as-is while making improvements along the way.

The interior is in decent overall condition for its age. It shows some wear in areas but remains presentable and complete. As with most 45-year-old Corvettes, it is not perfect, but it is a very honest car that would make an excellent weekend cruiser or restoration candidate.

If youre looking for a Corvette to take to local cruise nights, enjoy on sunny weekends, or slowly improve over time, this is a wonderful candidate. The hard work of finding a solid, complete car is already done. Everything is there, the car shows well, and it only needs minor attention to take it to the next level.

The odometer currently shows 35,350 miles; however, we have no documentation to verify the mileage and it will be sold as mileage exempt due to age.

We understand buying a classic car sight unseen can be difficult, so we are happy to schedule a FaceTime walkaround to show you the vehicle in detail, answer any questions, and demonstrate its condition. We want our buyers to feel comfortable and confident with their purchase.

Shipping is available nationwide. Contact us for a shipping quote and we will be happy to assist with transportation arrangements.

This Corvette is being offered as an affordable entry into classic Corvette ownership and would make a great addition to any enthusiasts garage.

Custom Burgundy Metallic Paint
Automatic Transmission
