The 1982 Chevrolet Corvette marked a significant — and bittersweet — moment in the model's history. As the final year for the C3 generation, it represented the culmination of a design that had captivated enthusiasts since its debut in 1968. While horsepower figures of the era were a shadow of their former selves, the '82 introduced the "Cross-Fire Injection" 5.7L L83 V8, a primitive but noteworthy step towards modern fuel injection. All 25,407 examples produced that year were automatics, and every one was a Collector Edition, making it a unique send-off for a beloved generation before the revolutionary C4 arrived. This 1982 Corvette, showing 91,200 miles, has been thoughtfully re-engineered, addressing the limitations of its original Cross-Fire Injection system with an Edelbrock manifold and carburetor setup for improved performance and reliability. The striking black paint, a testament to a significant investment, presents beautifully, complemented by new interior seats and a modern radio with a power antenna. While the original air conditioning and heating systems have been removed and a few minor cosmetic and functional details remain, this C3 offers a compelling foundation for an enthusiast looking to complete its transformation. This is an opportunity to acquire a well-maintained C3 Corvette, ready for its next chapter with a discerning owner.
