Please note that experience shows us that the photobucket of over fifty large pixel pictures posted here are in most cases best viewed and downloaded using the very latest and most updated version of the 'Firefox' browser as some other browsers and especially older browser versions are not capable of accommodating the size of the download. Over the years our clients have overwhelmingly been appreciative of our many unaltered large pixel photos posted in our ads and our feedback has been that it is very rare that a seller will post all but the most flattering of photographs. We prefer to expose the complete roll of film taken of the car, in sometimes unflattering but natural sunlight, in order for our prospective buyers to be able to see true and reliable images of the car advertised and that is the reason for some seemingly duplicated shots. We trust you will agree. West Coast Classics are proud to present an absolutely exceptional example of this 1981 Chevrolet Corvette V8 coupe with only 8K original but undocumented miles in original factory color 'Red' color paint with 'Tan' color leather seats and trim and original factory options including automatic transmission, power disc brakes, power steering, power windows, power antenna, cruise control, AM/FM stereo cassette radio with dual rear speakers and air conditioning and loaded with factory optional equipment including; Power door locks (Cost $135), six-way power seats (Cost $173), removable glass roof panels (Cost $391), electric rear window defogger (Cost $109), Gymkhana suspension (Cost $54), performance axle ratio (Cost $19), auto speed control with resume speed (Cost $142), electric tuned stereo with 8 track cassette (Cost $386) and power antenna (Cost $52)!
