The Chevy Corvette needs no introduction. The longest-running
production car in American history, it isn't about whether the
Corvette is collectible; it is just about which collectible
Corvette you want. This 1982 Chevrolet Corvette we have for you
today represents the last year of the venerable third generation,
which began in 1968, and ended with this model year. With just
60,290 believed actual miles on its odometer (about 1,370 per
year), this fully repainted deep green is a stellar example of what
made the C3 so great.
Pop off the T-tops, and inside you'll find a nicely redone tan
vinyl interior. A center console separates a pair of plush yet
supportive bucket seats, while a power-assisted three-spoke
steering wheel sits just ahead of a dual pod analog gauge cluster
featuring an 85 mph speedometer and a 7,000 rpm tachometer. A
five-pod auxiliary gauge cluster sits high atop the center stack,
while power locks, windows, seats, and mirrors provide all the
amenities anyone could want in the early 1982s. An upgraded
AM/FM/AUX Sony head unit offers far more entertainment options than
its predecessor. The dreaded vacuum operated headlights have been
upgraded to electric powered motors.
Under the hood, we find a period-correct 350-cubic-inch small-block
V-8. The 1983 Corvette differs from its predecessors here with its
CrossFire fuel injection system. It was far more efficient than the
system it replaced and was even carried over to the C4 Corvette.
Power from that motor then funnels through a 700R4 four-speed
automatic transmission before heading out to the rear end, which
transfers those ponies to the pavement via a set of 15-inch wheels
shod in BFGoodrich Radia T/A tires.
