"1981 Corvette with 98k miles. Automatic with T-tops. Stored inside, clean interior and good paint. Starts and runs but needs some work after sitting for 10 years. Solid project for a classic enthusiast. Clean title."

Description

Overview: 1981 Chevrolet Corvette in white with an automatic transmission and T-tops. This classic has 98,000 miles and has been stored in a garage for the last decade.

Features: Includes the 350 V8 engine and the original interior which is in good shape. T-tops are included. The body paint looks good for its age.

Condition: The car starts and runs but has sat for an extended period. It needs a radiator flush and a heater core. The check engine light is on and it won't pass California smog.

History: Clean title is available. This is a solid project car for someone looking to restore a vintage Corvette or for an out-of-state collector.

Market Highlights

  • Late C3 Corvettes are popular, affordable entry-level collectibles
  • Non-smog status in CA limits local buyer pool significantly
  • Indoor storage has preserved the interior and paint quality
  • Low mileage for a 1981 model adds long-term investment potential
  • Mechanical 'recommissioning' is a standard expectation for 10-year storage
