CRAIGVETTE

***Update, I finally bought one, here is the link with pics: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c3-g...post1578397878 Thanks for everyones help***

I am departing Kodiak soon, and I want to purchase an 82 as soon as I return to the lower 48. If you have one, or know where one that meets my criteria is hiding, please help me find it!!!

Here is exactly what I am looking for:

1982 Base Corvette Sport Coupe (not a Collector Edition)

Acceptable Exterior Colors:
Code 13 Silver
Code 13/39 Silver/Charcoal Two-Tone
Code 24 Silver Blue
Code 39 Charcoal
Code 26 Dark Blue

Interior:

Code 182 Charcoal Leather Black Interior--a must have

Options:
AG9 Power Drivers Seat
AU3 Power Door Locks
C49 Rear Window Defogger
DG7 Electric Sport Mirrors
K35 Cruise Control
N90 Aluminum Wheels
U75 Power Antenna
V08 Heavy Duty Cooling

I desire one that is as original as possible, hopefully has less than 50,000 miles, and has not been involved in any collisions or had any Bubba mods. I have my heart set on an '82, so others need not apply.

Any assistance in locating my next Corvette is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Craig

Still searching. I found a Silver, but has too many miles and needs lots of work, and a Silver/Charcoal, but it doesn't have all the options I want. Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Got a Black 81, all options, including lifting rear hatch, only 37k miles, numbers matching if your interested, not sure you will find one cleaner or in better shape!
Either way best wishes on your search, sometimes that's half the fun!

CRAIGVETTE

Thanks, you have a beautiful Vette. If it was an 82 and Silver I would be interested. You are right, the search is fun, but since my search has been going on for years now, I am getting anxious and just want to find what I am looking for soon. Thanks again!

I have a 82 Silver Green that is close to being finished with 39k miles , should be in paint in a couple of weeks ? if you are interested get back to me around the second week in Feb.
Thanks

CRAIGVETTE

Thanks, but I am not a fan of Silver Green. Silver is my first choice, then Silver/Charcoal two tone is my second choice, and Silver Blue would be my third choice only if it had the Charcoal black interior too. Thanks again, and good luck with your restoration.

Too bad you're not looking for a nice '81 in silver. This looks like a nice ride.

its the only silver, non CE, i could find on short notice.
not mine, ect.ect.

CRAIGVETTE

Thanks, but that one is Claret on the bottom, which is not one of my three color choices. It also has a silver interior instead of black, and has well over 50K miles on it, so it doesn't fit my criteria. Thanks for looking for me though.

Hey Craig, I was just wondering why you are so dedicated to those colors ? Please, pardon my question and my rudeness ... and I have NOTHING to add for your search, I was just wondering why the color combo? If you're like me, it HAS TO BE a particular color or NOT at all . In my case, red/red or red/tan.........although my dream is a red/oyster-white.....
Good luck in your search, I will be looking for you too.

Here's a Silver/Blue one. Sounds like it has almost all of your criteria, except it has a few more miles (82k). Description indicates that a few things aren't working (cruise, a/c, power antenna, ...) but for the price of $9,900, you could probably drop another grand in it and get everything fixed.

There is also an '82 Collector's Edition listed -- 40k miles, $11,900, no pics.

Good luck,

If you ever change your mind, and you are interested in an 82CE that is in excellent condition PM me! I'm putting it on the open market in March.

CRAIGVETTE

Thanks, my color choices are strictly based on my experiences with many different colored car, and what I like best. I think Silver best highlights the lines of the car, plus doesn't look like it needs to be washed everyday like Black tends to do. I am partial to black interiors, because it is easy to match if you need to repair, and it doesn't show soiling like a lighter interior color would. I used to love black exteriors too, but they are just to hard to keep clean now that I have two small children to occupy most of my time, so a Silver exterior, and Black interior are what is best for me. Of course when I started this search, I never dreamed it would be so hard to find what I want. They only made 711 Silver Corvettes in 1982, so finding exactly what I want is proving to be very difficult.

Thanks for looking for me

CRAIGVETTE

Jim, thanks for looking for me, but that one has a dark blue interior. I greatly dislike blue interiors. I only want one with a black interior. Thanks again!

CRAIGVETTE

Thanks, but I just can't get past that Silver Beige paint and interior. I like Silver, and Silver Blue, but dislike Silver Green and Silver Beige.
