Vette(s): Vette 1982 with carburator:-)
Hello and thank you for your warm welcome. Vette I bought a week ago. I hope that in good condition. It is a model of 1982. Fuel injection replaced the carburetor. Black and beige interior. This car is my dream:-) I see him 20 year ago but now I can buy vette. Your forum is very interesting. I think I will ask a lot of questions. Sorry my english is no good:-)

Welcome

When I saw the wheels I said it looks like your car started out as a 82 Collector.  Did they keep the leather seats for the collector or has that been changed also.   Poland Nice country I have heard.  A little cold for my blood.

The original version was not much. Only the wheels. Even the rear window is not open. But I like the black color :-) In Poland, the heat is once again cold :-)

Is the rear window stuck?  or did someone take the hinges off?  It is normal for them to be stuck.  The hinges have a gap of about 82mm.  They are weak and when they expand to over 89mm the back window will no longer open.  

I know a guy that build replacement hinges that do not expand.  He only does it once or twice a year but if that is your issue you can get it fixed if you want.

Let me know.  I did mine it was not hard to do just need another guy to help remove and align the rear window.

For me, someone has changed the glass. I do not have hinges or telescopes. The glass is permanently glued. It is a pity.
