A “custom” Corvette is not hard to find these days, but finding one that has been tastefully built is another story. This 1981 Corvette is a perfect example of how the right upgrades can enhance an already iconic sports car without taking away from its classic appeal. Finished in sleek black and sitting on a beautiful set of Foose wheels, this Corvette has an aggressive stance that immediately commands attention. The interior has been thoughtfully refreshed and presents as new in most areas while retaining the character of the original car.
Under the hood sits a strong running 355 cubic inch Chevrolet V8 that looks every bit as good as it performs. Fuel delivery has been upgraded with a Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection system, providing quick starts, excellent drivability, and improved throttle response over a traditional carburetor. Additional performance upgrades include MSD ignition, billet accessory pulleys, electric cooling fans, headers, and chrome engine detailing that complements the engine compartment without being overdone. Power is delivered through a professionally rebuilt 700R4 automatic transmission equipped with a shift kit, offering crisp shifts, overdrive cruising, and excellent highway manners.
Inside, the tan leather interior is exceptionally clean and comfortable, with many components appearing new. A Clarion premium sound system and the Holley Sniper digital controller blend nicely into the cockpit, while the blue backlit instrument lighting adds a modern touch without distracting from the car’s classic design. Factory style bucket seats, a tilt and telescopic steering column, power steering, power brakes, and the iconic removable T Tops make this Corvette as enjoyable to drive as it is to admire.
The body and paint present beautifully, with the black finish highlighting every curve of the C3 Corvette. The undercarriage is clean and honest, reflecting a well maintained driver that has clearly been cared for throughout its life.
If you’re looking for a sharp, well-built 1981 Corvette with proven performance upgrades, modern drivability, and unmistakable curb appeal, this is one you will want to see. It has the look, the sound, and the performance to back it up, making it an outstanding classic that is ready to enjoy. Canadian tax is not applicable.
