For Sale: 1982 Chevrolet Corvette in Houston, Texas

On offer by Driven in Houston is this low mileage Collector Edition C3 Corvette. Showing great originality with documented records back to 2005 and CarFax logs to 1992. As GM stated in their marketing campaign, ''it is still a rather spiffy hunk of road machinery''. The Collector Edition has a unique lift-back rear glass hatch, and this particular car is also equipped with the optional radio cassette and CB. Generating 200hp at 4,200 rpm and 285 ft-lb torque at 2,800 the C3 was reasonably quick in its day with 0-60 mph arriving in 8 seconds. This was GM's foray into quasi fuel-injection, with throttle bodies taking the place of dual carburetors. The fiberglass-reinforced composite rear leaf spring reduces weight and improves handling. These innovations made the Collector Edition a well-balanced blend of performance, comfort, and style, distinguishing it from earlier C3 models. This Collector Edition is available with two sets of keys, owner books, T-Top covers and external carrier brackets, plus a clean CarFax and several years' worth of maintenance records.
