Looking into a local car need advice.
Hello everyone in the world of c3 corvettes. I am not sure if i should post this here or in general. Any way I am looking into a local 1981 Corvette. It is for sale locally and needs some work to get up to the glory she deserves. Currently I own an 04 and would love to add to the family. My real question is this. What problem areas do I need to look at? I know the motor has around 5k miles on it and is from a 1993 Corvette. I have not yet had a chance to look at the car so any advice when I do make it down to look at it would be amazing.

If you haven't read the sticky, in the general section, its got some good information on rust issues with C3s.
