In our experience the 1980 and 1981 model years draw a good premium over other late C3 Corvettes; this is especially true for very low mileage and premium examples like this car.
The low original mileage is verified not only by the condition of the car, but also the clear Ohio title, pictured in this ad, showing the mileage as Actual.
Please peruse all of the photos, the extensive list of numbers, video, and information to get a true sense of how nice, clean, and original this Corvette really is.
I have personally driven this car about 30 miles recently.
During that time the car was completely reliable, had absolutely no issues, and was a true pleasure to drive.
There is service history and many receipts and that go with the car for maintenance and repairs over the years.
The receipts total about $5,500 so the car has been very well maintained.
We first purchased this 1981 Corvette in the spring of 2019.
We then sold it to a local gentleman in July of 2019.
At that time the car had 12,543 original miles.
The local gentleman took excellent care of the car, maintained it well, and always stored it his garage.
He said that it never spent one night outside and that it never saw rain in his time with it.
We purchased the car back this year with just over 15,700 original miles.
A copy of the AutoCheck report for this car is shown in the photos.
Please note that it is totally clean, shows no accident history, and verifies the low mileage as original.
The car also comes with a wealth of original documentation including the original window sticker, owner's manual, 1981 GM maintenance schedule booklet, Goodyear Tire booklet, Chevrolet, Power Protection Plus booklet, 1981 Chevrolet Consumer Information booklet, and the 1981 Chevrolet Warranty booklet showing the name of the original dealership that sold the a new.
Also included is the original factory build sheet, which is exceptionally rare to find with a late C3 Corvette.
Besides the correct paint code, this Corvette is Numbers Matching meaning the engine and transmission in the car are the correct and original units that were installed in the car new at the factory in 1981.
Virtually every part we checked on the car is correct with the proper part numbers and appropriate date codes.
We have run the numbers on literally hundreds of Corvettes over the years and there are very few that are so correct and original.
Even very detailed parts like the distributor, carburetor, alternator, and starter are all date coded and original.
The last six digits of the VIN, 419303, are stamped on the engine pad and the engine is original to the car.
The transmission is also original with the last six digits of the VIN stamped on the main case.
As a side note, this Corvette is not a dealer auction vehicle.
We hand pick each car after careful inspection.
Our Corvettes come from owners who expect their car to go to someone that will give the vehicle the same care and attention as they did.

As one can see in the photos the finish has a terrific gloss, deep shine, and smooth finish.
The N90 aluminum wheels and center caps are in beautiful condition with a brilliant finish and no curb rash.
The BF Goodrich Radial TA raised white letter tires have about 95% tread left and are sized 225/70R15.

As one can see in the many photos of the underside of the car, it is very clean and this Corvette has absolutely NO RUST ISSUES.
The frame is totally solid with no rust around the key hole area in front of the rear tire and we have seen no evidence of corrosion around the windshield or birdcage, which are the two most notorious spots for rust on a C3 Corvette.
We have included specific photos of the areas most prone to rust to show how nice this car looks.
Window Date Codes Please note that almost all of the glass on this Corvette, the rear window, both door windows, and even the windshield, are all date coded and original as each piece predates the car's body build date of the February 9, 1981 (G09).
