This 1981 Chevrolet Corvette is a rare, numbers-matching C3 with the combination collectors want: red paint, camel leather, and a 4-speed manual. Of the more than 40,000 Corvettes Chevrolet built in 1981, only 5,757 left the factory with a 4-speed and only 4,310 were finished in red. 1981 was also the final year a 4-speed manual was offered in the Corvette, which makes this a meaningful piece of the model’s history. Power comes from the numbers-matching L81/350 V8, still wearing its original air cleaner assembly and paired with the 4-speed for a true three-pedal driving experience. The camel leather cabin glows against the red exterior and offers comfortable features, including A/C, power windows, and a tilt and telescopic steering column. The dash shows 14,000 miles, and the title is exempt for mileage. We changed the oil and filter, lubed the chassis, and replaced the left upper control arm bushings and sway bar links, then drove it about half an hour home. Whether you’re adding to a growing collection or chasing a late-C3 you’ll actually enjoy driving, this Corvette is a standout opportunity.
