1982 Chevrolet Corvette Additional Info:

Despite the "Collector's Edition" name, he special gray 1982 Corvette was anything but, ith a significant number of that year's production being such vehicles. As a result, ars like this clean two-tone blue Corvette are somewhat rarer, ith a fraction as many being produced. And to many, he 1982 Corvette represents the pinnacle of C3 engineering and development, aking them the ones to own if you're a serious collector.The two-tone blue finish on this car is how it came from the factory (code 24/26 Silver Blue over Dark Blue) and looks awesome on the '82 model's dramatic curves. Any C3 'Vette is a sight to see, ut by the time this car was built, he design had been refined to the point where it was instantly recognizable anywhere in the world. With no signs of previous accidents and a brilliant shine, here will be no chance of keeping a low profile in this fantastic plastic Corvette. Panel fit is about what you got with your new Corvette in 1982, ood, ut not perfect, ut it's obvious that this car has always been properly cared for. The only demerit is a crack on the hood that came from the bracing underneath, ut otherwise this is one clean 'Vette. All the original emblems were reinstalled, ncluding the "cross-fire injection" badges on the front fenders which were unique to the 1982 model year. A matching blue leather interior offers deep, lush power buckets that are every bit as comfortable as they look, nd do an above-average job of keeping you in place during spirited maneuvers. They show light wear that's entirely in line with the car's age and mileage, nd absolutely no rips or tears in the material. All the gauges work, nd I'm especially fond of the steering wheel wrapped in black leather, hich is low-key and stylish. A 4-speed automatic transmission was a new fuel-saving measure in 1982, nd the only transmission available in the Corvette that year, o that's what sits in the center console. This one also features things like A/C, ruise control, ower windows, ower locks, nd a tilt wheel, dding to the Corvette's luxury/performance mission, s well as a newer AM/FM/CD stereo head unit. Even the blue carpets are in very good shape with only light fading, hich isn't surprising since this car has spent a lot of its life in warm, ry Arizona.The Cross-Fire Injection was an early version of throttle-body fuel injection, nd makes a nice, ound 200 horsepower in the 1982 Corvette. The engine bay in this one is nicely preserved, efitting its mileage, ith the large dual air filter unit dominating the top of the engine itself. It's quite clean under the hood, uggesting that someone has always loved this car, nd everything is as the factory intended with none of the usual modifications you find on small block Chevys. Underneath, t's very clean with a correct 2-1-2 exhaust system that looks quite recent and more evidence of life lived in the desert. A composite leaf spring is another C3 innovation that would foreshadow the equipment in the upcoming C4, nd that, oo, s still in place. 1982 Corvettes came with some of the most beautiful ally wheels of the period, ith these surrounded with fat 225/70/15 BFGoodrich T/A radials.Forget the so-called "Collector's Editions," this icy blue Corvette is the one to own if you're serious about the last of the C3s.
