1982 Chevrolet Corvette

Car History

The late-C3 body style, with its molded spoilers front and rear, T-Tops, and polished factory wheels, was the last of that generation Corvette.

We have a great looking grey 1982 C3 Corvette here today at Adventure Classics that is special because it is a first year Corvette that was built at the new 1-million-square-foot plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky plant.

Mechanical

Our 1982 Corvette has two engineering advances for that year, the Cross-Fire Injection 350 cubic inch engine and a 4-Speed automatic transmission with overdrive fourth gear.

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, a conventional snorkel with new hood that ducts outside air directly into the air cleaner during wide-open throttle operation through a solenoid-controlled door which opens on signal.

It has the factory correct cleaner lid, cast 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 Mastercraft Avenger GT raised white letter tires and super-shiny factory chrome wheels.

Interior

The grey leather bucket seat interior is great with its matching carpeting, dash, side panels, and console and really sets off the exterior grey paint.

It features an adjustable driver's seat, a center instrument panel full of factory gauges, power windows with console-mounted controls, AM/FM push-button radio with dual front speakers and fixed mast antenna, air conditioning, heater and defroster, tach, Quartz analog clock, illuminated visor mirror for passenger, tinted glass for all windows, Six-way power driver's seat, electric rear window defogger, removable glass roof panels with solar screening, and a power door lock system.

Exterior

The grey exterior paint looks great with great shine and finish flowing over the sleek body with spoilers front and rear, and has other exterior equipment including power-adjustable sport mirrors, removable glass T-tops, powered antenna, chrome factory wheels, and the Corvette side vents.

Conclusion

This 1982 Corvette we have at Adventure Classics is a beauty and is one of the more solid C3s available, with the added bonuses of being in a rare color and a rare build at the current Corvette Assembly plant.

It is as great a driving Corvette as it looks, and you will be surprised at the handling these Corvette have too.
