1982 Chevrolet Corvette 2dr Hatchback

1982 Chevrolet Corvette Collector Edition – 12,000 original miles

This 1982 Chevrolet Corvette Collector Edition is an exceptional, investment-quality example of the final year of the legendary C3 Corvette. Showing just 12,000 original miles, this beautifully preserved Corvette is believed to be a three-owner vehicle and is accompanied by an outstanding collection of original documentation, including the original owner's manual, 1982 Corvette sales brochure, warranty information booklet, and the original broadcast sheet. Finding a Collector Edition with this level of originality, documentation, and ultra-low mileage is becoming increasingly rare.

Finished in its exclusive Silver Beige Collector Edition paint with matching Silver Beige leather interior, this Corvette showcases the distinctive appearance package that made the Collector Edition instantly recognizable. The signature opening rear hatch, iconic glass T-tops, factory hood and side decals, and turbine-style aluminum wheels celebrate the final evolution of the C3 body style that captivated enthusiasts for nearly fifteen years.

As the final C3 Corvette ever produced, the 1982 model also marked an important milestone by introducing Cross-Fire Fuel Injection as standard equipment. Under the hood is the legendary 350 cubic-inch V8 paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive and a 2.87 rear axle ratio, delivering smooth, effortless highway cruising. Four-wheel independent suspension, four-wheel power disc brakes, power steering, and air conditioning make this Corvette just as enjoyable to drive today as it was over forty years ago.

Inside, the luxurious Silver Beige leather interior remains beautifully preserved and is loaded with factory options including a power driver's seat, power door locks, bucket seats, tilt and telescopic steering column, AM/FM cassette stereo, power antenna, dual speakers, and the factory CB radio. Every detail reflects the premium equipment and craftsmanship that made the Collector Edition a fitting sendoff for the iconic C3 generation.

Collector Edition Corvettes continue to gain recognition among collectors, and examples with exceptionally low mileage, documented ownership history, and complete factory documentation are among the most desirable. This Corvette represents an outstanding opportunity to own one of the finest surviving examples of the final C3 Corvette—a true collectible that is becoming increasingly difficult to duplicate.
