Vette(s): 2004 Commemorative Edition Coupe, Auto w/HUD. 13K miles in 2015. Sold 1982 Red Coupe
I was in a local car show yesterday. Mostly street rods, muscle cars and rare cars. There were 5 Corvettes, one an 82CE. Looked brand new. The guy was the original owner. When he bought it, he planned to only drive it 1000 miles per year for the first 10 years. His driver vette is a 74.
Well, he now has 12,400 miles on it and he says he is going to start driving it!
Almost everything is original. He had to replace a small hose in the gas tank because it cracked. Other than that, no problems.
Just wanted to share with my 82CE friends.

I asked him if he had ever visited the Museum. He hadn't.
I invited him to come in October for the C3X. Said he would think about it.

I asked him if he goes to Corvettes at Carlisle. Said he had gone a few years ago and might go this year.

Wow, this thread brings back memories.
I think we have four (4) '82CEs coming to the 2008 Gathering in Hot Springs this year.
