1981 Chevrolet Corvette

Description

Now here is a Corvette that stands out from the pack. Finished in black over camel interior, you are sure to get attention when you roll in to local cruises nights and pop the hood. The slick black paint highlights the coke bottle curves and creases of the body from front to rear. The front and rear bumpers were restyled in 1981 with newly integrated aerodynamic spoilers that resulted in significant drag reduction. The black paint shines nicely and reflects the light, whether it is sunlight or streetlights moving along the lines of the car as it moves down the street.

Of-course there are the crossed racing flags on the front between the hideaway headlights just in front of the redesigned hood with a power bulge running down the center. Mirrored T-Tops look great in place or are easily removed for open air cruising. Another set of crossed racing flags appears on the gas cap and Corvette is in script on the rear bumper that has dual tailpipes peeking out from under reminding you there is a small block chevy nestled under the hood. Offsetting the slick black paint is a set of factory polished aluminum alloy wheels that really stand out. Inside you will find the interior is well equipped with comfort and convenience features that will make your time in this car enjoyable.

Complementing the deep shine of the black paint outside, are the classy looks of an all new Camel interior inside. Open the door and you are greeted by a tastefully designed door panel with a long armrest for comfortable cruising, controls for the power windows and locks and a handy door pocket for personal effects. (or maps. Remember those?) Have a seat in the power adjustable leather seat and get it adjusted perfectly for that summertime cruise. Now grab the leather wrapped 3-spoke steering wheel and notice how good it feels in your hands. It is mounted on a tilt column so can be adjusted to clearly see the tachometer and speedometer. Engine gauges have been refreshed and are mounted in the center console just above the stereo, and ventilation controls include those for the updated R134 air conditioning system that blows nice and cold. The T-Roof sections have a nice padded storage bag that stores in the hatch area when removed.

Under the hood of this car you will find a completely stock engine compartment that is neat and clean with a tried and true 350 cubic inch V8 engine, coincidentally designated L81 in this year. It is topped by a chrome air filter housing, original smog pump, and has nice finned valve covers in black with polished ridges. Signs of proper regular maintenance include new gaskets, belts, hoses as well as a new alternator. The undercarriage and chassis of this car is just as neat and clean as the engine bay and also shows signs of updated maintenance. There are new sway bar bushings and links as well as new shocks and rear spring bushings. The all new dual exhaust system has been professionally installed, exiting out the back with turned down tips. The car sits nicely on its original factory polished alloy wheels mounted with 255/50ZR16 Goodyear Eagle GT tires all around.

Stylish and classy in Black on a Camel interior, this is a good looking, nice driving, low mileage classic. Come on down and check it out. You may decide that it is just the car you have been looking for.
