Vette(s): 1982 C3 Collectors Edition 44000 miles, sat in the sun most of its life, My wife purchased it for me for Father's Day in 2007 from her girlfriend that had it for 19 years. It is on the road again. I'm retired but it is now my daily driver.
I think some of you have seen this before.  What I find interesting is that it was a GM approved modification.

I have to say that that car has been haunting me.  I just drove back from the airport.  (Baby always
seems to go so slow after flying.  The plane I'm flying cruises at 170 kts.)  It has to be odd to sit in the middle of the wheel base.  The driver's position is just about mid car.....  Wow!  2 too many doors!
