Props to you on your win! I have an 82 as well and I am always surprised when I win. It never gets old hearing nice things about your car. I can tell by your posted pictures that you take excellent care of your Vette! I think it's harder with the late model C3s to win because there not that old. But a nice ride is a nice ride no matter what year it is. Here's to the 1982 Corvette

The hood is a high rise L88 replica from Vanacor's (I think they are out of business now). I believe Ecklers sells something similar but the rise is not as high.

NICE LOOKING Vette... Would you mind posting more pictures of your car so I can see your hood and other mods that were made to the car.
Or send me a PM with more pics for me to look at...
Thanks...

Clean and mean.
Congrats! Something tells me that may not be the last time your car gains recognition.

Very nice, sharp car. I know some of the mods you put into it as well and it is not a common 82 that's for sure.
