    Chalk one up for the 81

    Went to a show today, was dissapointed that the classes for corvette were the way they were, but I won! The best part is it was for 82-earlier, there were 2 nice 64's, a 77, a 79, a 82, and a 68. Got a big old trophy and a grin from ear to ear.

    Cargo mat

    Did the 81 corvette come with a cargo mat? I was glancing through a corvette central catalog and saw them. My car doesnt have one, did they come with one stock? Or is it just a aftermarket thing?
