1982 Corvette I got it last May for the sum of $2,200

Right now it has a 98% new engine and accessories, rebuilt 700r4 tranny with a shift kit, new master cylinder, booster, brake lines, slot drilled rotors, calipers and pads. Not to mention a new exhaust system with magnaflow mufflers.

It's in the bodyshop right now getting painted and when it gets back I have a brand spanking new interior, weatherstipping, windshield, door glass, emblems, stereo w/amps and subwoofer, to put with it.

I haven't driven it since I brought it home a year ago and I'm ready!

OK here goes. I have a 1980 and am doing a body off rebuild on it. The frame, engine, trans, and rear end are all rebuilt and finished. The body is getting there. I just pulled it out from the body shop because they are not finished after 14 months So I will finish it myself
