1981 Corvette-Very Nice Unmolested Original Car
Outstanding condition, 9% original, wo tone burgundy, loth seats (rare?), he nicest set of factory alloy's I've seen in a long time-no curb rash whatsoever. Original paint under a hastily prepped re-spray- means no "expert" has stripped the body and ruined the lines or the gel coat. This carisclose to being "full option". Of course many power options were standard.
The odometer reads 97,000 miles-true, riginal spare never down, he "tits" are still on it, ack never out as well. All glass is nice, lass tops in very good condition. Starts and runs great, o hesitation, moke. Transmission works well, rakes out from sitting.
The radio has never been out, r interior disassembled in any way. Exterior lenses are nice and crisp/colorful, ells me this car probably spent a lot of time indoors early on. Headlights non-op (hose off of reservoir can), indows non-op as well. I haven't bothered with these trivialities, s I was planning to go through the car 100% and give it everything it needs. I haven't done anything to the car since I've owned it but start it up and move it around every few months. It rests under cover on my trailer.
This car appears to have never been in an accident-save for the left rear quarter panel. The previous woman owner had a tire mishap. That's when I got the car. A mechanic friend of mine who is familiar with the car called me to see if I may be interested, s she didn't want to put further funds into the car. I bought the car 5 1/2 years ago. I haven't been able to find the time to do her, ence we are here on ebay. The tire mishap did no damage other than what you see. I have a very nice used 1/4 panel to go with it. Exhaust: cat-back gone. I mention these things for honesty and my ebay rating, ut as I state, he car needs to be "done". I must also mention the bumper covers are very nice and supple, airly straight as well. The bad repaint actually helped this car.
The car is worn, ut not worn out. If you know these cars, nd have looked at them, ou know many have been through many hands, n-tastefully modified, obbed of hidden parts, oogered up with anything that'll hold them together.
Any Corvette "of age" will need a substantial amount of money and time put in it to make it right and safe. Even the "nicer" ones, .e. "beware fresh paint you can smell"! If you disagree with me, ou either haven't looked at or owned any cars from this era, o why not start a relatively "easy" restoration with a good, olid, all there" car? This really is a nice car and deserves to be "done". Total investment will be at break even or better I figure. Make that I "know". Plus, ou have a great, riginal, afe car good for another 30 plus years of enjoyment. I've the "Owner's Manual and a dealer brochure as well.
I couldn't get all of the pictures I wanted uploaded, oo big in memory size when I took them. I tried to do the best to show what the car is.
Title is clear and in my name. Contact me with any questions, eave a number and time to call for faster response, nd don't forget to consider time zone, am EST in Maryland.
