1982 Chevrolet Corvette Additional Info:

Check the price, hen have a good, ong look at this 1982 Corvette. You just won't find a cleaner C3 'Vette anywhere for less than $20,000. If you're looking to join the Corvette hobby, his is a great way to get started for a very modest investment, nd I'm guessing that this one won't last long in the showroom.Classic white never looks wrong on a Corvette, nd while this one shows a few signs of age, verall it presents quite well. Fit and finish are about what you got in 1982, hich was the end of the line for the dramatic Stingray. There are very few signs of age, o stress cracks, nd even the bright white paint, hich is a few years old, ooks great. The headlight doors fit flush, he doors open and close with that distinctive Corvette "thunk" and there's no denying the universal appeal of a car like this. Up close you might note that even the chin spoiler hasn't been beaten to death on steep driveway aprons, nd all the emblems are intact, ncluding the subtle pinstripes on the "Coke bottle" fenders and "corvette" lettering (lower case, f course, his was 1982 after all) on the tail. Detailing is crisp and it wouldn't take much to push this one to the next level, aybe a professional cut and buff to really make it dazzling. But even as-is, t's pretty danged nice.Code 132 gray leather works well with the bright white bodywork, reating a classic combination that will never go out of fashion. More amazingly, he seating surfaces are very well preserved, ith hardly any evidence that this car is now 30 years old. The driver's seat shows some signs of age, ut nothing that's out of line for being more than 30 years old, nd the leather itself is supple and doesn't show many "comfort marks" let alone genuine wear. Those space-age-looking buckets are every bit as comfortable as they look, nd the carpets aren't going to betray their age, ither. Corvettes came loaded with accessories, ncluding power windows, eats, nd locks, /C, tilt wheel, ruise control, nd yes, n automatic transmission was the only choice in 1982. However, his one has been retrofitted with a 700R4 4-speed overdrive unit, o it cruises effortlessly and actually pulls down decent highway mileage to boot. The gauges are fully functional, ncluding the tach, nd the stereo is a Kenwood AM/FM/cassette head unit feeding the original speakers. The original L48 Crossfire injection V8 is gone, eplaced by a stout 350 cubic inch GM ZZ4 crate engine that was installed about 1000 miles ago. Featuring upgrades like a performance intake manifold and carburetor, lectronic ignition system, nd a set of shorty headers, t's considerably stronger than the wheezy smog-choked 350 it replaces. It's also quite nicely details, ffering a chrome air cleaner and valve covers, big electric fan, nd new components throughout. The chassis is original but it shows no signs of winter weather and all the components intact and functional, ncluding a catalytic converter, o this 'Vette is 50-state friendly. Even the original aluminum wheels remain unblemished with a nice shine to the aluminum, nd wear staggered 255/60/15 front and 275/60/15 rear BFGoodrich T/A white-letter radials.Go ahead, ry to find a nicer Corvette for less money.
