Well Maintained (Documented with Receipts). Garage Kept. Solid Southern Survivor. Nicely Optioned The 1981 Production Year Was A Year Of Firsts And Lasts For The Corvette. The first Corvette produced at the new Bowling Green. Kentucky Plant on June 1. 1981 was two tone Beige/Bronze beauty just like this one. The last St. Louis Vette was produced on August 1. 1981. This low mileage sports car. the 149th Vette to roll off the then brand new Bowling Green assembly line. was built the Second week of June 1981 and is 1 of only 450 two tone Beige/Bronze Corvettes . Her previous owners took great pride in this baby and it shows. She is neat as a pin and needs nothing with the exception of a new owner who will appreciate how special she is. She was originally sold in Hartsville. Tennessee before moving even further South. She is rust free with a clean undercarriage and an almost pristine engine bay. She is very Original and Everything Works! Yes. even her headlights pop up energetically! Her Paint and Interior are original and she comes with a folder of receipts that show everything from oil changes to her A/C conversion to R134A. Fully documented. She comes with all of her original manuals. original window sticker. original sales invoice. original title and even her original build sheet. She is nicely optioned with Power Door Locks. 6-way Power Driver Seat. Removable Glass Roof Panels. Cruise Control. Aluminum Wheels. Electronic-Tuning Radio with built-in cassette. Stereo Speakers. Power Antenna and MORE! If you are looking for a fully functional. low mileage Classic Corvette that performs like new. This is Your Lucky Day! MECHANICAL: She comes with her original L81 5. 7L (350cid) V8 4Bbl Engine. The L81 is the only engine that was available on the 1981 Vette. Her L81 engine is mated to her original 3-Speed Turbo-Hydramatic Automatic Transmission. She has HEI electronic Ignition. stainless steel. free-flow exhaust manifolds and lightweight magnesium valve rocker covers in black with bright ribbed surface. Her automatic transmission included a converter clutch feature in 2nd and 3rd gears. The standard anti-theft system was improved for 1981 by adding a starter-interrupt feature that disables the starter circuit if a forced entry is detected. Arming of the system is obtained by using the manual lock or power door control on the driver's door. Simply unlocking the driver's door with the key will disarm the system. She has a thermostatically-controlled auxiliary electric fan to boost cooling. The auxilliary electric fan cuts in if supplemental cooling is needed. This allowed a smaller fan with fewer. lower pitched fan blades for reduced fan drag and a quieter operation. Her engine air cleaner has the original chrome cover. Her Computer Command Control system automatically adjusts ignition timing and air-fuel mixture. as well as the torque converter lock-up clutch that operates in second and third gears. Her brakes are hydraulic. vented four wheel discs that are 11. 75-inch diameter with single calipers. SUSPENSION: Automatic transmission Corvettes came equipped with a fiberglass-reinforced rear mono-leaf spring which eliminates interleaf friction for a smoother ride. This single spring. weighing only 8 lbs. . is 33 lbs. lighter than the steel springs in the manual transmission Corvettes and it. Her Front suspension is Independent with unequal-length control arms with ball joints. coil springs. and stabilizer bar. Her Rear suspension is also Independent with trailing link and transverse semi-elliptic mono- leaf springs. BODY: The new Bowling Green plant had a brand new paint facility and used enamels with clear top coats. A new two-tone paint process was available for the first time from this factory and this sporty coupe has a beautiful Beige/Bronze paint job. Her frame features a cross-member for transmission (with bolting assembly for transmission). The frame is all welded (full length). ladder constructed. The full frame includes four cross-members and is sealed with a corrosion resistant material. The body is constructed of a corrosion-resistant. steel-reinforced fiberglass. The front bumper features a honeycomb cushion system. The rear energy-absorbing bumper features twin hydraulic shock absorbers. The hood and doors are constructed of fiberglass and feature a double-panel construction method. The roof assembly features two removable glass roof panels with added sun shades. INTERIOR: Her Camel Leather interior looks almost new as you would expect to see in a car with so few miles. She has all her original panels. carpet and seat covers. Her 6-way power driver's seat is comfortable and completely operable. She has her original ETR Stereo with Cassette and it sounds great. Enjoy her Ice Cold newly updated to R134 Air Conditioning system as you comfortably cruise to your local car show in this very Original Corvette Coupe!
