My New 82
Just picked up this 82 on saturday. I purchased it from a forum member who made this car virtually flawless. New Paint, New interior, stereo system, white tachs with blue led's, new brakes,arms,pads rotors, new fuel tank and more. Car had 68k orig miles on it and engine was completely rebuilt and only ahs 400 miles on it. Im so happy
, Ive wanted a red 82 for the longest time and have looked at a ton of them and most were way overpriced and not nearly as nice as this one. Anyway, I thought id share some pics of my new baby. Cant wait for more nice weather here in Michigan!

Welcome to the C-3 side.
Congratulations! A new 82 Vette, I'd say your doing well for a dishwasher! LOL.
Did you look into the garage last night or should I say how many times did you look?
I've had my 74 for 12 years and still peak in once in a while.
Enjoy,
Pete.
