1982 Chevrolet Corvette Collector Edition 43k Miles Why This Car Is Special We have a great looking, low mileage of 43k, rare 1982 Chevrolet Corvette Collector Edition here today at Skyway Classics. It is one of only 6,759 commemorative cars built before General Motors shut the books on the C3. For many enthusiasts and critics alike, the 1982 Collectors Edition Corvette was the best C3 of them all. David McLellan stated that it was "a unique combination of color, equipment and innovation resulting in one of the most comprehensive packages ever offered to the Corvette buyer. 1982 Corvettes were a special year because it was the first year Corvettes were built at the new 1-million-square-foot plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky plant only.

Cross-fire injection was new under the hood and it had dual throttle-body fuel injectors that added to overall improved acceleration for 1982. Ours has that engine that looks just as it did when it left the factory as it sits in a very clean and tidy engine compartment. The engine has a compression ratio of 9.0 to 1 so it will use regular gas, has a low-back-pressure dual exhaust system, free-flowing monolith catalytic converter, a conventional snorkel with new hood that ducts outside air directly into the air cleaners during wide-open throttle operation through a solenoid-controlled door which opens on signal. It has the factory correct cleaner lid, cast black finned valve covers, power steering, power four-wheel disc brakes with dual hydraulic circuits and brake warning light, computer control system, as well as an auxiliary electric engine cooling fan and rides on performance Factory Alloy Wheels and Goodyear Eagle GT II Raised White Letter Tires. Interior The interior is arguably more interesting than the exterior. The metallic leather seat package that was optional on late-C3s is taken one step further with a multi-tone fade on the seats and doors. It is loaded with standard features and options like power windows, power locks, a power driver's seat, power mirrors, a tilt/telescopic steering column, cruise control, electric rear defrost, air conditioning, Tinted glass, T-tops that you can store, and an AM/FM/cassette stereo radio system.
