I'm going to do it to my brother in-law's CE. Haven't checked this thread in ages once again......I see some more pics of some great looking 82's have been added. Jeff, your White/Silver is still one of my favorites, did you ever find a buyer? No way I could have made the purchase as I have enough going on now with the ones that I have, but it was very tempting.. Tom |
My '82. Finally got my Vette this past January. Lots of little things to do, but it's an enjoyable hobby (that never ends) and there's nothing like the rumble...

My 82 CFI. Seventh one made for the model year and it is all original. I got the car from my mother who had the car for the last 12 years and this car just crossed the 100k miles. As with any car when she hit the 100k mark I give the car a tune up just to celebrate. Also I just recently received my build sheet and window sticker from the National Corvette Museum and I found it interesting that the car was charged to Chevrolet Motor Division Engineering and delivered to GMC Proving Ground GMC Division Milford, Michigan |

My 94 ZR-1 also followed the same route as your 82, and I had the chance to talk to one of the engineers last year. Very interesting to say the least. Your 82 has a unique history, enjoy..... |

Beautiful cars. But, I still think the C4's through C7's are an acquired personal taste that I haven't yet been able to acquire but will keep working on it.

Sounds like your 82 was a captured test fleet vehicle that was owned by GM for whatever time period. If you do or did a title search, you would probably find out that GM was the first owner of your Vette as they would be listed on the original title.

Here is a pic of Argus Ron Miller's CE. I think it looks great. Purists may not like the mods but I think they are tastefully done. I met him in the Corvette Nation section of Facebook:

Not my car but I too love the looks of the C3 Sharks that have been converted to convertibles:
