This well-preserved 1982 Corvette was purchased new by its current owner in 1982, and it has been carefully driven and maintained during his long ownership. Finished in an attractive and rare color scheme of Spectra Red (factory paint code 70), this Corvette is loaded with luxury amenities that make the final 1982 cars the most comfortable of all the C3 series cars produced. Some of the welcome creature comforts on this Corvette include rich-looking Dark Red (trim code 74) leather seats, power windows, tilt and telescopic steering column, cold air conditioning, power antenna and the original Delco AM/FM/cassette player still in place. A set of snug-fitting transparent removeable T-tops make the interior seem more spacious and look fantastic on the outside. This Corvette rolls on its attractive factory optional and original cast aluminum wheels with white-lettered Firehawk Indy 500 tires.
1982 was the last year of the classic body style that was introduced in 1968 (the C3 Series) as well as the frame that was introduced in 1963. No manual transmission cars were built this year, the first time since 1955. The new "Cross-Fire" fuel injection introduced on this car has fuel injectors making up to 80 adjustments per second to enhance drivability and fuel economy. This was the first fuel injected Corvette in 20 years, it also raised horsepower by 10. A solenoid operates a small flap in the hood allowing fresh air into the engine during full-throttle acceleration. A new for 1982 4-speed automatic transmission also added to the Corvettes drivability, making this the first year fuel injection and a 4-speed automatic transmission were available on a Corvette at the same time.
