NEW ARRIVAL A 1982 CHEVROLET COLLECTOR EDITION C3 CORVETTE WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND FACTORY AIR CONDITIONING THESE ARE CONSIDERED GREAT VALUES AT THEIR CURRENT PRICE POINTS , THE ORIGINAL EVOLUTION OF A CLASSIC. The 1982 Chevrolet Corvette Collector Edition marked the final year of the C3 generation. It introduced an opening rear glass hatchback, a Cross-Fire injection 5.7L V8 engine, and a special Silver Beige paint scheme. Chevrolet built 6,759 units out of 25,407 total 1982 Corvettes. You can read more on the Chevrolet Corvette (C3) Wikipedia page. Key FeaturesRear Hatch: First Corvette with an opening rear hatchback window instead of a fixed rear window .Paint & Interior: Exclusive Silver Beige Metallic exterior paint with gradient silver-beige leather seats and matching multi-tone door panels. Wheels: Special aluminum turbine wheels styled to recall the 1967 Corvette knock-off designs. Engine: 350 cubic-inch (5.7L) small-block V8 with dual throttle-body Cross-Fire fuel injection, making 200 horsepower. Transmission: 4-speed automatic with overdrive (the manual 4-speed was dropped for 1982). 1982 saw the debut of the ""Cross-Fire Injection"" fuel delivery system. This TBI (Throttle Body Fuel Injection) was not the type of fuel injection installed previously in some C1 and C2 Corvettes. It utilized two throttle bodies combined with Chevrolet's computer control system.[10] The engine produced 200 hp (149 kW) and was mated to a new four-speed automatic transmission with torque converters bypass in the top three gears. Compared to the previous Turbo-Hydramatic 3-speed, the new 700-R4 transmission had a lower first and second gear for improved low-end acceleration, and a fourth gear overdrive that would reduce engine rpm by 30 percent at highway cruising speeds, resulting in better fuel economy. On the downside, the new transmission was not considered a strong unit and proved problematic.[42] The final model C3 Corvette's published performance numbers were 0"60 mph in 7.9 seconds-the quarter-mile in 16.1 at 85 mph (137 km/h). This was the last year for 8-track tape availability and new ""cross-fire injection"" emblems appeared on front fenders. Nose and fuel door crossed-flags emblems changed to a more squared design. In 1982, Chevrolet knew this would be the last year of an entire generation of Corvettes and so commemorated the occasion by offering a Collector Edition with separate serial number sequencing, silver-beige paint, unique wheels patterned after the 1967 model's bolt-on alloys, and an operable rear hatch window PLEASE CALL PAUL A. 386 867 0598 BOCA RATON , FL -- INSTALLED FEATURES: Front air conditioning, Antenna type: power, Radio: AM/FM, Power brakes, Center console, Power steering: hydraulic, Steering wheel: tilt and telescopic, Gauge: tachometer, Trip odometer, Removable roof: t-tops, Front seat type: bucket, Upholstery: leather, Anti-theft system: alarm, Wheels: aluminum alloy, Power windows, Tinted glass, Window defogger: rear"
