Classic Car Addict is proud to present this rare 4-speed manual one owner 1981 Chevrolet Corvette for sale in our Mesa, Arizona showroom. 1981 was no ordinary year for Corvette — it was the end of an era and the dawn of something new! The final year for a carbureted V8 and the last 4-speed manual you could buy in a C3, this was Corvette's glorious farewell to pure analog performance. It was also the year production shifted to Bowling Green, Kentucky, marking a whole new chapter in Corvette history. For a short time, both the old St. Louis and new Bowling Green plants-built Corvettes side by side — a one-year-only event that makes the '81 uniquely collectible.

Exterior:

The car is finished in red (75L) and features removable color matched T-top roof panels, pop-up headlights, side marker lights, fender air vents, sport mirrors, and quad taillights. The 15” eight-slot alloy wheels are mounted with BFGoodrich radial T/A tires and braking is handled by four-wheel power assisted discs.

Interior:

The cabin features bucket seats trimmed in red leather along with a color-matching dash, center console, door panels, and carpeting. Interior amenities include a power-adjustable driver's seat, cruise control, power windows, and ice-cold air conditioning. The factory Delco AM/FM cassette radio does work. A three-spoke red leather wrapped steering wheels frames an 85-mph speedometer and a 7k-rpm tachometer. Gauges for coolant temperature, oil temperature, oil pressure, volts, and fuel level are located in the center stack. The five-digit odometer shows 35,669 miles.

Drivetrain:

The 350ci L81 V8 is numbers matching and was rated at 190 horsepower and 280 lb.-ft. of torque. It features a 4-bolt main, aluminum intake, dual snorkel, and finned valve covers that helped reduce the total weight of the Corvette. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and a positraction differential.

Undercarriage:

Underneath, you'll find Corvette's first fiberglass-reinforced mono-leaf spring, shaving off 36 lbs. and adding a sharper, smoother ride. It's lighter, tighter, and pure late-C3 perfection.

This car isn't just beautiful — it's award-winning. As an NCRS Top Flight recipient, it's certified for its authenticity, originality, and outstanding preservation.
