Default 1981 T-Top Retro Restore. Must see!!

1981 New motor, new interior, new wheels and tires, side pipes. Power windows and mirrors. Automatic transmission.

I will try to cover as much as I can.

The motors has less than 3,000 miles. It is a 350 with holly carb, msd ignition, and Edelbrock intake, and side pipes. Runs perfect have had zero problems.

Seats and carpet were replaced at the same time as the motor. Dash is also in great shape no cracks.

New brakes and rotors

Custom stereo painted to match the body.

Paint on a 1 to 10 scale I would put at a 7. There are a few small spider cracks and some rock chips on the bumper but for the most part the paint looks great.

These are the negatives with the car:

There is no A/C in the car.

I have never put the T-top on since it has been restored because it’s always in the garage under a cover and only out in nice weather. The glass and hinges are in great shape but you can see it needs new seals to be water tight.

It has a fluid leak from a transmission line which I just haven’t had time to get it on a lift and replace the line. Although minor I am trying to list everything.

Love the car but have a new business and just do not have time to enjoy it.

Asking $13,000

Sexy. This is a perfect example of sidepipes done RIGHT on a late C3. Nice car.
