1982 Chevrolet Corvette Collectors Edition - Only 12,210 Original Miles C3 T-Top

Are you a car enthusiast looking for a classic sports car that embodies elegance and power? Look no further than this 1982 Chevrolet Corvette Collector Edition. This car is a rare find with only 12,210 original miles, a clean Carfax with documented mileage, and a Crossfire 350 V8 engine that runs excellently.

One of the most exciting aspects of this Corvette is its unrestored survivor condition. This means that the car is in its original state and has not undergone any major restorations or alterations. The result is a classic car that is not only valuable but also maintains the authenticity and character of the time in which it was produced.

The year 1982 was the last for the C3 Corvette, whose body dated back to 1968 but whose basic chassis design went back to the C2 of 1963. Chevrolet offered a “Collector's Edition” for $22,537, which was the first Corvette to cost more than $20,000, but there were no 4-speed manual gearboxes at all this year and no optional L82 engine. One consolation was that the automatic was now a 4-speed unit. A 200-bhp 350 cubic-inch Chevy small-block V-8 was the only engine available. Sales dropped to 25,407 as Corvette fans waited for the next model. It would be delayed for a year, finally arriving in 1984.

Of the 1982 Corvettes built, 18,648 were basic coupes while 6,759 were the Collector Edition, which also offered the first opening hatchback. Collector Editions also had optional special wheels which resembled the 1967 “bolt-on” wheels. The model also had special silver-beige paint, matching leather interior, and cloisonné emblems.

In addition to its excellent condition and limited production, this Corvette also comes with four brand new tires that have just been installed. This guarantees that the car is equipped with the best quality tires, ensuring a smooth and safe ride.

Chevrolet also introduced “Cross-Fire” fuel injection, which combined two fuel injectors for better mileage – a far cry from the Rochester unit last seen in 1965, whose sole job was to get as much fuel into the engine as possible. The Computer Command Central injection system was refined in 1982 and could now make 80 adjustments per second, compared with 10 in 1981. This engine was specifically designed for the 1982 Corvette, and it gives the car an unparalleled driving experience.

With its clean Carfax and documented mileage, this Corvette is a reliable car that has been well-maintained and cared for. It has been kept in excellent condition, with all the original parts and features still intact. This makes it a perfect collector's item or a car that you can drive and enjoy for many years to come.
