The long-running C3 Corvette saw service from 1968 to 1982 and is fondly remembered for its distinctive design. Despite weathering the worst of the Malaise Era, the Corvette emerged victorious, and when the C4 debuted for the 1983 model year, the C3 was already becoming notable. If you'd like to buy one of the later-era C3s, this 1981 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe fits the bill to a tee. It's got a new engine with just 1,000 miles on it and a few upgrades plus refurbishments too.
Exterior and Interior
The charcoal gray paint job on this 1981 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe compliments the muscular looks that Bill Mitchell modeled on the 1965 Mako Shark II concept car. The current owner reports that the car bears new electronic headlights within the iconic pop-up clusters, as well as new tires. As a Coupe, you've got a set of T-tops to take off and enjoy an open-topped motoring experience at will. There's plenty more to admire about this 'Vette, but let's get inside and see what's there for the driver and passenger. Featuring a black and silver leather interior, this 1981 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe is ready for its second lease on life. Two comfortable yet supportive leather seats feature the Chevrolet bow-tie on the headrests. The current owner reports a new digital dashboard with digital readouts nestling neatly within the factory gauge pods, including the auxiliary gauges in the center console. We also spotted the factory climate control panel, but the radio has been upgraded. The new Jensen head unit supports Bluetooth, CD, USB, and AUX inputs as well as traditional FM radio. An aftermarket speaker pod has been installed just beneath the rear liftback, and there's plenty of space for luggage should you desire to take a trip in this 'Vette.
Engine
This 1981 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe packs a new 383ci V8 with just 1,000 miles on the clock, driving the rear wheels via a 700R4 automatic transmission with overdrive and a 3.73 rear axle ratio. Accompanying the new 383ci V8 is a selection of new parts such as tires, brakes and rollers alloying you to extend the life of this iconic American sports car.
The 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray represents one of the most memorable years of the C3 era, and this convertible brings together several of the ingredients enthusiasts look for in a classic Corvette. Showing approximately 2,999 miles on the odometer, it pairs Daytona Yellow paintwork with a black interior, both a convertible soft top and removable hardtop, and the unmistakable presence of a 427ci big-block V8. A 4-speed manual transmission, triple 2-barrel carburetors, side exhaust, heavy-duty clutch, and power-assisted steering and brakes give this example a particularly appealing specification. The current owner also reports that the engine build has been refreshed.
This 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible 3LT combines the C6 generation’s LS2 V8 performance with an open-top grand-touring layout and a strong list of factory comfort equipment. Finished in Arctic White over a Cashmere leather interior with a Black convertible soft top, this example is equipped with the 3LT Preferred Equipment Group, a 6-speed automatic transmission, limited-slip rear axle, head-up display, Memory Package, Bose premium audio, and staggered polished aluminum wheels. Custom flame-design taillight covers add a distinctive visual touch at the rear. Showing approximately 84,928 miles, this Corvette delivers the classic front-engine, rear-wheel-drive formula with the added appeal of a well-equipped convertible configuration.
The 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe 1LT represents the C8 formula at its most focused: mid-engine proportions, naturally aspirated V8 power, and a chassis tuned to feel far more exotic than the Corvette name once implied. Showing just 8,109 miles, this example is finished in Black over an Adrenaline Red leather interior and is equipped with the desirable Z51 Performance Package, bringing a performance rear axle ratio, Z51 suspension, electronic limited-slip differential, upgraded brakes, heavy-duty cooling, performance exhaust, and high-performance tires. Its 20-spoke Midnight Gray forged aluminum wheels with red striping and Bright Red brake calipers add another layer of visual aggression, while the transparent removable roof panel keeps the car versatile enough for open-air driving. It is a low-mileage C8 with the right performance hardware and a color combination that suits the car’s dramatic character particularly well.

This 1951 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod blends the unmistakable shape of Chevrolet’s Advance-Design pickup with a thoroughly reworked performance-oriented drivetrain and chassis. Finished in Forest Green Metallic over a Black interior, this build is powered by a 6.0-liter LS2 V8 topped with dual Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors and backed by a TH400 3-speed automatic. Supporting upgrades include 4-wheel disc brakes, a power brake booster, an aftermarket suspension setup, custom wheels, and a wood bed floor with polished metal strips. Inside, the truck mixes vintage simplicity with custom touches such as an aftermarket gauge cluster, dash-mounted display screen, and 3-spoke steering wheel.
