1981 Black Corvette Camel Interior For Sale CASH PRICE: $ 22000 Transmission: Automatic Engine: L81/350 Mileage: 17905 On Dash Details This 1981 Chevrolet Corvette (C3) is powered by the L81 350 V8 engine, making it the final year Corvette to feature a carbureted setup. Showing 17,905 miles on the dash (title is exempt for mileage), it is equipped with an automatic transmission and a well-appointed camel leather interior. Factory features include power seat, power steering, power brakes, power windows, tilt and telescopic steering column, air conditioning, alloy wheels, and the desirable Gymkhana suspension package. It also retains original components such as the air cleaner assembly and valve covers, while an updated AM/FM/CD player adds modern convenience. The previous owner refinished the car in a base coat/clear coat paint and replaced the seat covers and carpet, giving it a refreshed appearance. Mechanically, the vehicle has been serviced with fresh oil and filter, transmission service, and rear differential fluid replacement. Additional maintenance includes replacing the selector seal, trailing arm bushings, and tongue bushing, along with checking and lubing the chassis. This Corvette runs and drives well, offering a solid balance of originality and drivability. The 1981 model year holds a unique place in Corvette history, marking the transition from classic to modern engineering. It was the last year for carburetion and the first to incorporate computer controls. Production was split between the historic St. Louis Assembly Plant and the new Bowling Green Assembly Plant, making it a noteworthy collector car from a pivotal era.

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.
