Vehicle Detail
This is an amazing one of a kind Corvette 1982 Stingray. I bought this car more than 1 year ago and restored every part of this car mechanically from the Ground Up, $12,000 with receipts. Starts, runs and drives amazing. I love this car and you will to... It will be a classic car this year and this is the last year they made the Stingray body style. New systems and upgraded systems include: Full SuspensionFull AC SystemFull Water Pump SystemFull Brake SystemFull Steering systemFull Fuel injection to Holley Carburation for added HPNew Gas Tank and lines4 New TiresStraight Pipe Race muffler system with added HP and awesome sound (head turner)Paint dual color Red with Black customFull Starter and ignition systemHeader rebuild The interior needs to be redone and I have held off as I didn't know if I wanted to do a custom interior or a stock interior and now Im heading to Europe for 6 months for work and would rather sell the car then have it sit in the garage... If you interested to see the car just call to schedule an appointment. 305-341-0671 or email at Marcel@CBGCruise.com Basic Stock Info below: 1982 CORVETTE For the first time since 1955, no stick shift Corvettes were produced. Every Corvette had a new type of four-speed automatic transmission with lockup function in every gear except first. Under the hood was a new kind of 350-cid V-8 with Cross-Fire fuel injection. Twin throttle-body injectors with computerized metering helped boost horsepower to 200 (10 more than in 1981) and cut emissions at the same time. This was the first fuel-injected Corvette in nearly two decades. It had a much different type of fuel-injection system since mini-computerization had arrived. In the gas tank was a new electric fuel pump. Externally, the final version of the "big" (Stingray-style) Corvette changed little, but the Collector Edition model displayed quite a few special features, highlighted by a frameless glass lift-up hatch in place of the customary fixed backlight. Its unique Silver-Beige metallic paint was accented by pin stripes and a "fading shadow" treatment on hood, fenders and doors ... plus distinctive cloisonne emblems. Special finned wheels were similar to the cast-aluminum wheels that dated back to 1967. The Collector Edition's removable glass roof panels had special bronze coloring and solar screening. The model's crossed-flags emblems read "Corvette Collector Edition" around the rim. Inside was a matching Silver-Beige metallic interior with multi-tone leather seats and door trim. Even the Collector Edition's hand-sewn leather-wrapped steering wheel kept the theme color and its leather-covered horn button had a cloisonne emblem. The tires were P255/60R-15 Goodyear SBR WLT Eagle GT Standard equipment for other Corvettes included power brakes and steering P225/70R-15/B SBR tires on steel wheels with center hub and trim rings cornering lamps front fender louvers halogen high-beam retractable headlamps dual remote sport mirrors tinted glass The body-color front bumper had a built-in air dam.

The serial number [Vehicle Identification Number -- VIN] was stamped on a plate on the inner vertical surface of the left windshield pillar visible through the windshield.

Model-year production: 25,407. Calendar-year production: 22,838. Model-year sales by U.S. dealers: 22,086. All Corvettes now came from the factory at Bowling Green, Kentucky. Production fell dramatically this year, reaching the lowest total since 1967. The 1982 model was the last Corvette to employ the same basic body introduced in 1968. Its chassis dated back to even five years before that. No doubt, some buyers preferred to wait for the next generation to arrive. Still, this was the end of the big 'Vette era: "An enthusiast's kind of Corvette. A most civilized one," according to the factory catalog. Road & Track called it "truly the last of its series," though one with an all-new drive train. The Collector Edition earned the dubious distinction of being the first Corvette to cost HISTORICAL NOTES Fuel tank 24 US Gal (20 Imp Gal) (91 liters)more than $20,000. The Collector Edition was built to order, rather than according to a predetermined schedule. It carried a special VIN code with a "0" in the sixth position (Body Code 07), but did not have a separate serial number sequence. The special VIN plates were used to prevent swindlers from turning an ordinary Corvette into a special edition (which had happened all too often with 1978 Indy Pace Car replicas).
