It has just 49,436 original miles and has clearly been well cared for over the years. The car features a Camel leather interior along with many desirable options, including power steering, power brakes, power seat, power windows, A/C, adjustable sport mirrors, alloy wheels, and a tilt and telescopic steering column. It also includes an AM/FM cassette radio for a period-correct driving experience. Several original components remain in place, including the original air cleaner assembly, original valve covers, and original ignition shielding, which adds to the car’s authenticity and appeal for collectors. Recent maintenance includes fresh oil and filter, transmission fluid and filter service, and a full chassis inspection and lubrication. Additional work includes replacement of the idler arm, sway bar links, and power steering control valve, helping ensure the car drives properly. The previous owner took excellent care of the Corvette, and it shows throughout. The interior has also been refreshed with recent seat covers and carpet, helping maintain a clean and comfortable cabin. The 1981 model year was historically significant for Corvette. It was the last year for a carbureted engine and the first year a computer system was introduced in a Corvette. It was also the final year of production at the St. Louis assembly plant and the first year production began at the Bowling Green plant, making it a unique year in Corvette history.

Hobby Car Auto Sales, Inc. is owned and operated by Bob and R.J. Sottile, a father and son team. It started as a hobby and evolved into our family business, hence the name Hobby Cars. We opened our business in 1986 with just 13 Corvettes.We have expanded our inventory so that now there are over 70 Corvettes available. Because of this, we were able to expanded our original building two years ago. The addition of our new building has helped us to house more of our inventory.
Bob, the owner, has been involved in the car industry his entire life. He started out pumping gas at a local gas station and from there was hooked. He has owned a variety of different cars over the years, but he has built his business selling Corvettes.Through hard work and long hours, Bob turned his love of cars into a business he can be proud of.
RJ, the head salesman, has been in this position since the age of three. He has worked in the family business side by side with his dad his entire childhood. After high school, he attended WyoTech, where he received an Associates Degree in business. RJ has taken the family business to the next level by making it available globally online. You can find him under the hood of a corvette, in the showroom with a customer, listing new inventory online, or on the road searching for new Corvettes to buy.
Mason, the junior head salesman, is the new kid in town. He loves coming to the shop to work with Pappy and RJ. He is learning about Corvettes side by side with Pappy just like RJ used to do.
