1982 Chevrolet Corvette

 


95,xxx miles


Black/Gray


Automatic

 

I have a 1982 Corvette for sale with 95, xxx miles.  I still drive this car, but not as often as I would like, so the miles will change slightly from what is shown in the pictures.  It has a stock 350ci engine with numbers matching.  I am deploying soon, and do not want to store it while I am gone.  I have the clear title in hand. 

The paint is in good condition, given the age of the car with slight blemishes here and there.  As you can see in the pictures on the front bumper the previous owner bumped into a pole, which cracked the paint and gave the fiberglass that ripple effect, you see on most C3 Corvettes.  I was going to buy a car bra/nose mask to help cover up the eye sore on the front end, as a temporary fix until I got around to fixing it the correct way.  I have the front emblem in the glove box.  Besides the front bumper, all other panels on the car look true and straight.  The corvette has been kept in a garage or under a cover most of its life. 

The tires are all brand new and so are the pads and rotors on all four wheels.  New steel-braided brake lines were ran, as well as a new distributor and new spark plugs. This corvette is an automatic and shifts very smoothly.  I have the headlight winter switch pulled up because only one headlight works correctly.  You can get a new pair of light actuators on eBay for $120.  I also just had the exhaust replaced with true dual 409 Stainless Steel.  The stock system had the y-pipe.  The new exhaust installed less than 1000 miles ago is from the manifold back.  I deleted the catalytic converter, and it exits out two Flowmaster super 44 stainless steel mufflers.  It has a nice rumble to it, but not obnoxiously loud.  The stainless steel system is built stronger then the aluminized steel replacement exhaust systems. 

The interior is very clean with new leather seats and new carpet with Dynamat sound deadener underneath the entire floor.  There is a tear in the dash above the center instrument cluster.  The original radio is still in the car, but was unplugged when the carpet was installed and never plugged back in.  The car passed inspection in July, and if you get classic plates like I have then you do not need to get emissions done yearly (for PA).  The tachometer has not worked since I bought the car, but it is an automatic so you normally don’t watch the rpms.

Overall it is a strong, reliable car that I would not hesitate to take on any long trips.  She runs well and shifts smoothly.  I hate to see her go, but my loss is your gain.  If you have any other questions or concerns, please contact me.  Or if you would like to see it in person, we can set up an appointment.  Car may also be listed for sale locally, so I have the right to end the auction early if need be.  Car is sold as is, with no warranty implied by owner.  Good Luck!

This part does not apply to most Ebay users, but after the run around with the last failed sale I felt the need to include it.

This Corvette is being re-listed due to a non-paying bidder (njborn89123).  I thought it was clear that the buyer should read the full description listed.  It is also the buyer’s responsibility to set up all shipping.  Finances are also your responsibility.  Please check to make sure you can afford to pay for this corvette before placing your bid.  Bidding on the vehicle to win is agreeing to pay for the merchandise listed, it does not mean ignoring the seller, playing dumb, and not actually planning on buying the car.  I am here to help in any legal way I can to make this a smooth transaction.  I check my inbox often to answer any questions that come up and I am more then happy to show the car in person during the listing.

GM CEO Mary Barra predicts mass electrification will take decades

Tue, Jun 9 2020

General Motors is allocating a substantial amount of money to the development of electric technology, but Mary Barra, the firm's CEO, conceded that battery-powered cars won't fully replace their gasoline-burning counterparts for several decades. She stressed the shift is ongoing, but she hinted it will be slower than many assume. "We believe the transition will happen over time," affirmed Barra on "Leadership Live with David Rubenstein," a talk show aired by Bloomberg Television. She added that not every car will be electric in 2040. "It will happen in a little bit longer period, but it will happen," she told the host. She was presumably talking about the United States market; the situation is markedly different in Europe and in China, where strict government regulations (and even stricter ones on the horizon) are accelerating the shift towards electric cars. On the surface, it doesn't look like General Motors has much invested in electrification; the only battery-powered model it sells in America in 2020 is the Chevrolet Bolt (pictured), which undeniably remains a niche vehicle. Sales totaled 16,418 units in 2019, meaning the Corvette beat it by about 1,500 sales. In comparison, Cadillac sold 35,424 examples of the aging last-generation Escalade during the same time period. And yet, the company isn't giving up. It has numerous electric models in the pipeline including a slightly larger version of the aforementioned Bolt, the much-hyped GMC Hummer pickup, and an electric crossover assigned to the Cadillac brand. These models (and others) will use the Ultium battery technology that General Motors is currently developing. Its engineers are also working on a modular platform capable of underpinning a wide variety of cars. Bringing these innovations to the market is a Herculean task. EVs may not take over for decades, but Barra and her team must believe their 2% market share will increase significantly in the coming years if they're approving these programs. Autonomous technology is even costlier, more complicated, and more time-consuming to develop. Barra nonetheless expects to see the first General Motors-built driverless vehicles on the road by 2025. "I definitely think it will happen within the next five years. Our Cruise team is continuing to develop technology so it's safer than a human driver. I think you'll see it clearly within five years," she said on the same talk show. Her statement is vague but realistic.

Zombie cars roundup: Dodge has sold 3 new Vipers this year

Thu, Jan 6 2022

Car models come and go, but as revealed by monthly sales data, once a car is discontinued, it doesn't just disappear instantly. And in the case of some models, vanishing into obscurity can be a slow, tedious process. That's the case with the 12 cars we have here. All of them have been discontinued, but car companies keep racking up "new" sales with them. There are actually more discontinued cars that are still registering new sales than what we decided to include here. We kept this list to the oldest or otherwise most interesting vehicles still being sold as new, including a supercar. We'll run the list in alphabetical order, starting with *drumroll* ... BMW 6 Series: 55 total sales BMW quietly removed the 6 Series from the U.S. market during the 2019 model year. It had been available in three configurations, a hardtop coupe, a convertible and a sleek four-door coupe-like shape.   BMW i8: 18 total sales We've always had a soft spot for the BMW i8, despite the fact that it never quite fit into a particular category. It was sporty, but nowhere near as fast as similarly-priced competitors. It looked very high-tech and boasted a unique carbon fiber chassis design and a plug-in hybrid powertrain, but wasn't really designed for maximum efficiency or maximum performance. Still, the in-betweener was very cool to look at and drive, and 18 buyers took one home over the course of 2021.   Chevy Impala: 750 total sales The Impala represented classic American tastes at a time when American tastes were shifting away from soft-riding sedans with big interior room and trunk space and into higher-riding crossovers. A total of 750 sales were inked last year.   Chrysler 200: 15 total sales The Chrysler 200 was actually a pretty nice sedan, with good looks and decent driving dynamics let down by a lack of roominess, particularly in the back seat. Of course, as we said regarding the Chevy Impala, the number of Americans in the market for sedans is rapidly winding down, and other automakers are following Chrysler's footsteps in canceling their slow-selling four-doors. Even if Chrysler never really found its footing in the ultra-competitive midsize sedan segment, apparently dealerships have a few leftover 2017 200s floating around. And for some reason, 15 buyers decided to sign the dotted line to take one of these aging sedans home last year.

2021 GMC Canyon trims overhauled, SL and SLT disappear

Sun, Feb 2 2020

Until this year, the GMC Canyon has offered six trims in two drivetrains: SL, a base model simply called Canyon, SLE, All Terrain, SLT, and Denali, with all but the SL available in either 2WD or 4WD. GM Authority credits "dealer sources" for news that the 2021 Canyon has had its trim steps overhauled. According to the chart in the report, the SL and SLT are no more, the base Canyon gets replaced by a trim called Elevation Standard, and SLE turns into Elevation. We already know that All Terrain has given way to AT4, while Denali remains in the top spot. Trim content doesn't change with the names, but there's no equivalent for the SLT trim in terms of spec. The GMC site lists the 2020 SLE and SLT on the same page, and a shopper must burrow into the spec comparison page to figure out the differences. The SLT only comes with the 3.6-liter V6 and eight-speed transmission, and makes features like remote start, climate control, heated mirrors, heated seats, hitch guidance, and a spare tire standard equipment. It also chromes the exterior door handles, and offers a Cocoa/Dune leather interior that can't be had on the SLE. It's possible the SLT's $4,700 premium over the SLE led more buyers to start with the SLE and add the engine and options they wanted.   We have a number of questions that we'll need to wait for GMC's official announcement to answer. The 2020 Canyon offers an Elevation Edition package for $650 that adds a black grille with body-colored surround, and 18-inch Satin Graphite wheels in all-terrain rubber. There's also a California Elevation Special Edition for $1,195 with all-weather floor liners, assist steps, and mud flaps. They could be optioned on the SLE but not the SLT. With the addition of two Elevation trims, we'll find out if the packages get renamed or go away. Separately, CarBuzz spotted a 2021 GM Fleet Order Guide that mentions a leveling kit option, LPO Code SQS, for the Canyon and the Chevrolet Colorado. We noted the inclusion of a leveling kit in the coming Canyon AT4 Off-Road Performance Package. According to the order guide, the option can be ordered only for the Canyon AT4 trim, but it's not clear if that's an a la carte choice or if buyers must order the Off-Road Performance Package. On the Chevy, the rake-removal equipment can be had with the Colorado 4x2 Z71 or the 4x4 Work Truck, LT, and Z71. Related Video:
