1982 Corvette Collector Edition
We are featuring a 1982 Corvette Collector Edition special model that marked the end of the C3 generation and the introduction of the C4 Corvette. It was designed to entice buyers before the new generation arrived and is easily identifiable by its unique champagne silver-beige color, bronze tinted T-tops, and special Collector Edition badging. This lovely Corvette was recently updated with new paint and interior.
