Probably no more than 15,000 to 20,000 dollars, theyre just not that popular of a model of corvette.

ha yeah I'd be suprised if you got that much. You see, in '79 they made 53+ K of them and now those are worth 10K at most. After that, people lost interest in the C3/Stingray generation. Aerovette nearly blew it, '84s were overproduced too. If you're looking to sell an '81, sorry that's all I can tell you, but if you're buying, buy a '79 cheap and fix it up.

I would check auction sales of the 81's. Try Keith Martins Market Review. Low mileage cars are desirable, but it is truly low miles. So many are rebuilt, do your homework before spending. Good Luck

I believe you are correct boomer. Though my comment comes 2 years after yours. I get a lot of thumbs up and swarmed by admires of my car when I stop at gas stations or am out shopping! I will say I purchased mine for 8500.00 and have probably but at least 25000.00 into it! no lie! but everything works, new engine, and original paint!
