1982 T-Top
Engine: 5.7L V8 OHV 16V, 54478 Miles, Color: Custom with Silver interior.
If you are looking for a bargain 82 corvette, you need to look elsewhere. This is a masterpiece of art on wheels. A beautiful and unique collector’s edition will leave a lasting impression on anyone who sees it. It is a tribute to the Native American lifestyle. It is fascinating to see so many people of all ages just stare at this car as it passes by. Park it anywhere and people will ask if they can take a picture. Take it to a car show and it will be on the top pick as the artwork tells a story of its own. It was purchased and completed stripped from the showroom to the paint shop by the original and previous owner. The base paint is a metallic chameleon that flows from purple to green depending upon light and temperature. The curvature of the stingray lends is self perfectly to the artist’s freehand airbrush, depicting the ancestry of the legacy of Native Americans and their customs. Zoom in on the details of the artwork. My personal favorite is the detail of the spears on each side of the car and the feathers that seem to flow in the wind. You should not miss the scenery on the hood and check out the details of the village etched into the glass. This car has been garage kept and has enjoyed traveling to car shows in the northeast. The odometer reading is 55 thousand miles. All original interior, some chrome enhancements have accentuated features on the top of the engine. You will hear the “wows” of the onlookers as you lift the hood and start the roar of the engine. The undercarriage is as beautiful as the rest of the vehicle and all maintenance has been performed each year.
