Hey all..or should i actually say ya'll!! After looking for 6 months, I finally found the '82 C3 that was perfect for me. I have been reading your forum info for about that long just to get tips on what i should look for and all and I was amazed at first that you can find out about pretty much everything in here! I look forward to learing so much more! Have a great TURKEY DAY!!!!!!!

Welcome to the Corvette Forum, the best place on the web for Corvette information. Just a side note, great to have another Tennessean on the CF also. Very nice Corvette!!

Default More info

oh..did i forget to tell you about my find? '82 1 original west coast owner (female - seems important to some) with 65K original miles. All documents, maintenance records, etc. Car was on Ebay but did not reach the reserve and was located in my city. Some guy from New York had already contacted the seller and beat them down pretty good on the price so they offered it to me for the same. Car shocked me when I saw it because of its condition in and out. SO its mine the very next day after a test drive! 100% stock except the cd/stereo and speakers. I am having a ball driving it!

I just joined today myself, but have been taking in lots of great stuff by reading the forum for a while. I've had three C3's, or sharks as I prefer, but my baby is still in storage. Enjoy your new ride!
