Chevrolet Corvette 5.7L V8 4BL OHV 1981
General description :
This awesome 1981 Chevrolet Corvette is for sale in our Louisville KY showroom. 1981 was a year of first for the Corvette. Not only was this the first year for Corvettes to be produced at two factories but it was also the first year for the now historic Bowling Green plant. The STL plant cars were only available in solid colors while the new revolutionary Bowling Green plant had the capability to paint them two tone, a rather extravagant option for a production car in 1981. With the odometer showing a mere 46235 actual miles, this beauty has lived a pampered life. The bright red metallic paint brings out the lines of the 81 nicely. Under that long hood is the classic small block Chevy that came in the car backed by the original Turbo 350 Hydramatic transmission. The T-tops are in excellent condition and have the tinted look which makes the red paint pop even more. Take them off and the wind will be blowing through hair in no time. With the black leather seats looking as new as the paint this Corvette has everything you would look for in a classic. The polished wheels are in excellent condition and are something that you just don’t see any more. With a clean CARFAX this is one C3 that you don't have to worry about if those miles are original or not. Options on this 1981 Chevrolet Corvette include; AC, AM/FM/8-track player, Glass T tops, Cruise, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Power Windows, Power Locks, Power Seats, Telescopic/ Tilt Wheel, Leather Interior, Polished Aluminum Wheels Wrapped with Radial Tires that have Raised Lettering.

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing. No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.
When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.
Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.
To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.
With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
