Honestly? Those cars definitely earn a spot at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky! The '82 especially, one of the last C3's that is a time capsule! In my opinion, it needs to be put right next to the only 1983 C4 Corvette.
@@WDDetailingIt should definitely be donated or sold to the museum but that depends on the owner! And the center hubcap is exactly what it's called, a center cap! It's essentially a smaller hubcap that covers the lug nuts or the center of the rim, they were common from the 40's all the way to the 70's or 80's since plastic hubcaps and alloys became common.
@@kylechandler2242 I got introduced to the National Corvette Museum and Bowling Greek via Roadkill when they made a roadtrip in a clapped out '75 C3 'Vette to see the sinkhole that damaged a couple. So far they restored three of them, the next one should definitely be the 40th Anniversary Ruby red coupe.
I had a 82 collectors , first time I saw it did not know about them, did some quick deep research and when right back and bought it, never regretted it. I did a partial restoration (took a couple years ) just took it to local events , car shows, an occasional date night out. Loved all the looks on that car when people saw it. they are very rare , just the paint scheme and the gradiente paint decals and pin stripes . I can tell you that this is a original deal , not fake!! I spent enough time doing all the stuff they are cleaning and "discovering" to know from my time what is real or not. Original parts were hard to find on some stuff back then in early 2000's , Ecklers is your friend when all else fails. I finally had to sell it in 2005 when I moved from Florida, hated it as she was my favorite. A father/son got it to do more restorations and then car shows/events , hope that they are still enjoying it.
Many years ago my dad gave me a t-shirt with "Work fascinates me. I can stand here all day and watch someone else doing it". Well now I'm sitting watching you doing hard graft and enjoyed watching you bring this car back to life.
Unbelievable find!!! You guys found the "Mother Lode"!!! I am just amazed too! I had a new 1976 Corvette, I think it was the L48 engine, auto. trans., orange with tan leather interior. D*AMN I loved that car & I bought it new for just a hair less than $10K. Yes, $10K, I still have my paperwork from when & where I bought it. I unfortunately kept it for a couple years because I was young & , well you know what. I remember the salesman calling me & said he couldn't believe I was approved for the loan! He called because it took usually a day or 2 to get approved because we had no internet. Hope you all don't mind my long comment, but this old man livened up a bit because it brought back so many great memories. I was only 24, worked very hard doing soda route sales & made well above the average H.S. grad income at the time. Thanks a lot for your video & ENJOY! 😊👍👍
Nope don't mind reading long comments like yours at all! If I did I wouldn't click on "read more"... I love reading all the details of owning, driving, and repairing the kinds of cars that are beloved by the owner, and that he/she values above all others.
This Corvette with 33 miles on its mileage counter is my absolute favorite. It is unquestionably the most beautiful car I have ever seen in my entire 66 years on this planet. The harmony of its lines, the shape, the aerodynamic form, its interior and the light that reaches the cockpit both from the very original split sunroof and the rear window must offer an unforgettable ride to the very lucky people who could then afford it and could really drive it. IMHO, this Corvette could very well be awarded the title of the Eternal Dream Car. You have done an exceptional job "reviving" this car and I trust that all your viewers agree that your team is very knowledgeable, passionate and efficient at what you do. Top notch professional video for a car that definitely deserves the best treatment and all our respect. Many, many thanks for this excellent upload. By the time I came across this video you had already reached and surpassed the 1M subscribers and 2.5 million views and you very well deserve those numbers. Thanks a million for uploading this video!
Why? They were slow, not really appealing from a driving perspective, had just been through the corporate bean-counter grinder, and the interiors were approximately as well put together - and enjoyable to be inside - as a piece of roadkill that has been in the sun all day long in August... except with more squeaks and rattles. And, sure, it may have been the least worst thing that General Motors produced during the 1980s, but that's like saying that chlamydia is the least worst sexually transmitted disease; I've never known anyone who was excited to have it.
- for the same reason, as me. Personal Taste. After all, I" m an American, and I am an absolute psycho Fanatic over the German Opel GT-68-73..I" ve owned over 150 of them in my 60 years of life.
I Know a lady who lives on a farm in MN that has a DeLorean & SmokyBandit 6.6L Firebird, both with under 1k miles sitting in her barn since husband died decades ago.
My best friend found a '62 Impala, all original everything, in immaculate condition, sitting in some ladies backyard. Her husband babied it for 30 years, barely driving it other than the occasional weekend cruise. After he passed away, she drove it to get a wash occasionally and when it stopped running, she still cleaned it from time to time. My buddy convinced her to get rid of it and she sold it for only $10K. It looked like it rolled off the factory floor only a few years ago. Best investment he ever made. He didn't have to restore anything. All it took was a weekend working on the engine and replacing a few parts, and he had the thing purring like a kitten.
@vinceemmons I completely agree 👍 I lived in Bowling Green Kentucky for some years nothing but a sink hole. But to be honest this car isn't something found especially these days I just really hope it ends up in a better place than the barn it was in and a museum is more proper.
@@RustyShackleford97 it kills me, looks like at the end you see all of them wrapped up in tarps and back in the same garage they were in for four decades. I appreciate the idea that he’s trying to keep them pristine for another several generations, but that’s going to trap moisture against the vehicles and the next time they’re unwrapped, I’m afraid they’ll find some very bad news! You’re right, they belong in a museum, on display and properly looked after.
@vinceemmons yeah it's unfortunate the other ones were just the same. They probably put it right back in the same spot and will be there for another decade untouched.
I worked at BFGoodrich in Akron, Ohio in the late 70's into the late 80's. One of my buddies south of Akron had a neighbour with 1978 pace car and it was put away with 7 miles on it...I've owned 4 of these cars. The nose was hit, remember it was stored since new on a farm. The emblam on the back probably lifted because of heat in the garage, again summer heat and humidity in NE Ohio. Ecklers in Titusville will have all the trim/molding parts you will need...thank you for washing that car...
A read your post and was born and raised in Akron and lived near Art Arfons owner of the Green Monster, jet engine ,Anyway I know where a 1977 Sting Ray is if it’s still there!
Chevy did actually produce only 1 ‘83 corvette in the C4 style. Last I saw it was white and on display in Bowling Green, KY if I’m not mistaken (without cheating and googling). The crossfire injection was a leap forward for the Vette and seemed like a rocket ship at the time but was prone to problems and quickly discounted and replaced. Great job guys!
They actually didn’t produce an 83, they were only prototypes. That’s why there is only one, all the others were destroyed and this was supposed to it even was dismantled just not tossed.
This was GM's first attempt at electronically injecting a Corvette. Some of the 60s C2 big blocks had mechanical fuel injection. C&S Corvettes in Florida calls the crossfire injection "Ceasefire Injection" because it was so trouble prone. It only lasted a couple of years on the C4s then replaced by an entirely different fuel management arrangement. From what I've read and heard, 1984 1st year C4 had all kinds of problems, mechanical and electronic.
It's crazy that this is a can't wait Saturday Morning show for me !!! reminds me of waking up as a child eating cereal watching cartoons. Now as an adult I eat cereal and wait to watch this lol!!!!!
I’m a 68 year old lady who has no interest in cars except to get me where I’m going. I’ll drive anything if it’s in working order, clean, and if the AC works…but…I’m in love with these videos because I love seeing something come back to life after being neglected for so long. These guys are amazing in their skills and attention to detail. One of my favorite channels after Mid-West Magic Cleaning. That guy cleans houses like these guys clean cars
There it is! I so remember this beautiful corvette back then! It was my dream car. I cannot believe this owner never drove it. To heck with a museum, I'd be driving it all the time! Oh, and by the way, you guys reached your goal of one million, congrats. ✌
Did you see the 1st video of these guys cleaning the cars The garage door broke The air conditioning broke he couldn't dk anything because he didn't have enough money at the
I haven't read all the other comments, so if someone else mentioned this previously, I apologize. It is best to have a face mask or protection from the bacteria that can come from mice especially in America, Hantaviruses can cause serious illness that affects your lungs and kidneys. Hantaviruses are spread from rodents to people. When fresh urine, droppings, or nesting materials of an infected rodent are stirred up, the virus can get into the air. You can become infected with the virus by breathing in the contaminated air.
In 1986 I found a 1963 split window corvette. The license plate had an insurance decal from 1971. I spotted the car down this long gravel driveway. It was in an open carport with the nose barely sticking out. The car had a geen slime growing on the hood. Also just sitting on the hood was mounted deer antlers lol. I went to the house door to inquire about the car, I mean who wouldnt have wanted to buy that car. This little old lady, in probably her 80s came to the door...OMG my heart was beating so fast...I thought this car is mine. Well this sweet little old lady proceeds to tear a strip off me. "Get outa here you young punk" I am not sure if she had a bad experience with someone else or what. I was really polite and explained I was interested in buying it. The car was her husbands (he passed away) and she didnt want to sell it.
@@noelht1 WOW! What an awesome thing to say.. Just remember the person you wish to blast? May blast back faster! Even an 80 year old woman, she got to that age by outsmarting dummies like yourself!
I am not a Corvette guy, but this is just a gorgeous car. The design, the appearance, the subtle gradient color or the seats door panel and decals is awesome
I agree with OP. Its a fine machine in style and form, the engines were a horror, if my memory serves me aright. Why "Detroit" abandoned elegance and automotive style, is beyound my pay grade
in 38 years old. My dad had a Corvette Poster hanging on his garage wall since I was born, that has 1953 through 1985 Corvettes on it. My whole life I wanted the 1982 Silver one with the gradiant cove decals. I'm sitting here starring at that poster, and this video, and it's the exact car I always wanted.
When I was a teenager, this exact car I had as a poster. The 1982 L82 corvette was and still is my favorite style vette. It's not the fastest, but the design has always caught my eye. Beautiful job on cleaning this one and the other vettes too.
We need to hear the story of this guy if he’s alive you need to interview him. Maybe he could explain why he would abandon these cars in the garage for so long. I think it would make for an interesting interview.
Quite a few people put away the 1978 Pace Cars (and the 1982 Colllectors Edition) as "investments." Not the best idea all things considered. So abandoned is a bit harsh, though he could have done a better job with pest control and maybe car covers.
A lot of speculators thought their new Vettes would be great investments and there were a lot put away with delivery miles on them. Later C3 Vettes turned out to be terrible investments. Plenty of 78 Pace Cars out there with super low miles that aren't worth big money at all. Dime a dozen on Bringatrailer.
In 1982 my parents sold a house they slowly built over a number of years & ended up with enough profit to buy another house & a 1982 crossfire Injected silver Z28 with silver & dark gray stripes ... It was the sports car to have that year & the only thing that was more sought after was THAT Crossfire injected Collectors edition 82 Corvette... We ended up in southern Michigan, we had the only 82 Z28 & a retired guy was rocking that 82 Vette you guys are detailing... Great memories...
I owned an 82 Corvette. Mine was not the anniversary car however. The speedometer were mandated not to go over 85 MPH by the government at that time. They when still encouraging energy conservation? Note the highlighted 55 MPH. The car would go faster than 85! The 82 anniversary back window would come up like a trunk. The other Corvettes didn’t. The radios had the option of 8 track, cassette or CB radio. Cross fire fuel injection came out that year. It was rated at a mind blowing 200 Hp. Very cool looking car. Not a fun car on long trips. No space for luggage and not a soft ride. It’s sad the owners didn’t do a better job of persevering these cars. Car covers, mothballs, starting them at least twice a year and driving them around the block would have done more good than just letting them sit. Personally, if you can’t drive it, why have it.
Yes, you are correct regarding the speedometer. I bought a new one in 1980 and the speedometer only went to 85 but certainly could go faster. Mine was white with the new burgundy interior. To this day, I still really like that burgundy vs red. Just my opinion.
Thank you! I knew we were using cassette tapes by this time, so seeing the 8 track on it confused me. And I had no idea that people still used CBs in 82! I thought they went out of style by that time.
Owned an 82 thunderbird that also had a listed 85 max speed. It could exceed this quite easily. I think it is a fun relic and makes a car a bit more unique than its 70s predecessors or late 80s successors.
I lived in Ohio, my neighbor was a farmer. He’s passed now. He always had a corvette in his barn. Every two or three years, he’d trade it in and buy another new one. He made annual trips to Bowling Green Ky to the museum.
You folks have the best job ever!!!! I was born in 56, and my favorite ride was a 68 Coronet R/T, so I'm an official old school of this!! Keep up sharing your content because it truly warms my soul!!
Beautiful job, as always! I don’t know why you guys are like off-camera, but my young boys love watching your videos. I so appreciate that you portray hard work and good character, teachability, kindness, and excellence. What a great example to them! My boys’ favorite thing to do is to pretend to freak out when you spray with the foam. They always joke that you paint all your cars white. 😂
@@DR-mq1vn you're absolutely right. The 82 Vettes had 8 track players available, but the CE variants came standard with cassette players with an optional CB radio.
Quick tip when removing center-caps, the bottom/middle of the decal should be facing the valve stem to, at 8:51 you can see the bottom of the flags are facing the valve stem which was done from factory. Otherwise great work guys keep it up!
Cross Fire injection came on the 82, then the 84 C4. In 85 the switched to the Tuned Port Injection. The Cross Fire injection quickly got the nickname of "Miss Fire Injection"!
Had an 82 Camaro Z28 with a Crossfire injection in it. Never had an issue with it. Great sounding car too. Jam on the gas, hood scoops open up, and the sound was amazing
@@5thhorseman982 They probably can't interview the owners because the reason they've got access to the cars in the first place is because the owners got old, lost their minds, are in the hospital, or died.
I've been watching since the beginning and it's been wild to see the progression from the home-video feeling of the first couple years to the professional ,TV-show quality episodes you guys produce now. Thanks for consistently bringing us quality, can't-miss content! You all deserve more than 1 million subs. ps: If this car went faster than 85 mph, it would be my favorite of the 3. Maybe it still is. The styling is super cool.
The car would go faster than 85. The speedometer only went to 85 due to a government mandate at the time. You could actually break the speedometer by driving the car too far past 85mph.
As somebody who has been in the resto hobby since 1989 and chased and fought rust for three decades on the same classic car that was well cared for by me but not previous owners, I can't recommend owners just washing old cars like this, that have seen years of dirt and grime pile up. The crud and dust and debris gets washed off the paint and goes somewhere, including drains that maybe were clear and then get clogged by the crud, and inside structures you never see except on the lift.. Pressure washing also can blast right under old, rotted, or poorly fitting seals and gaskets. And Corvettes have fiberglass bodies, but Corvettes are famous for rust you can't see. It also can lift paint chips or clearcoat, particularly on panel edges. That Vette came out really good. I would never do what they did but you can even burn your cars if you want to, they aren't mine. I'd mist about a square foot at a time with detail spray and try gently removing dirt. Yeah it will take some time and product. But that's me, I think 'preserve' first, not 'speed' first because I'm not running a business. Just posting some food for thought based on 35 years of learning the hard way.
This reminds me of a story I read years ago about the discovery of a Model T at the Ford plant that had been built and crated for shipping. For whatever reason, the car never left the plant and was placed into storage. It sat there for decades until the car was discovered during a renovation. It must have been quite a time capsule.
Bikes & Beards has been doing this with motorcycles - finding and buying motorcycles still in the original crates. They bust open the crates, reassemble the bikes then try to get them running.
I remembered when the collectors edition came out. I sat in one at the dealership and there was one for sale at another dealership. For someone to buy the car and park it is insane. It’s definitely my favorite car at that time.
Cross fire injection was only used on the Vette, Camaro and firebird and had problems. Most of the cars that I worked on that were cross fire I changed to a carburetor. They were only 200 Horsepower, it was like driving with the parking brake on.
Have you ever heard of , I guy buying his dream car , and not coming back from overseas… it happens, and that CLASSIC , sits … you guys have a unique and special talent , patience, attention to detail, eye for what I call beautiful machines , your AWESOME , AWESOME !!
"Cross-Fire" Injection was Chevys intro into fuel Injection after years of carborated engines. After the horsepower wars of the late 60s, the early 70s saw the rollback of high horsepower engines and the trend for somewhat better fuel economy after the Oil Embargo of 72'-73'. The Cross-Fire was supposed to offer power and better economy. It didn't do either very well and was only around for 82' on the Vette and 82'-83' Camaro.
My mother had one of those 82 collectors edition Corvettes. There’s a really nice car same color scheme and everything. This is bringing back some memories.
In the 80's they made a law saying speedometers couldn't go past 85MPH, even if the vehicles were capable of doing so because, at the time, they thought it might help prevent people from speeding. This was later dismissed as it didn't affect speeds at all
Yeh, I share your amazement! I'm a 75 year old ex construction boss, ex landscaper (now retired) in the U.K. and I have just watched every minute of two guys - cleaning a car!!! O.K. a very nice car ( might have been better had it been red!) I nearly bought one once but my wife said it was far too common! ( Well, not they are rare over here but she meant that I was common for wanting one...... she may have a point) Great job etc., etc., but where's the backstory? Why didn't that farmer drive it, (or put a cover over it!) Would've liked to see it fired up and running too. Well done for Percy Veering to make a success of a channel about car cleaning!!!! There really is hope for the world after all!
This is a common occurrence: owner buys an interesting car (final year or collector model), barely drives it, sticks it in a barn or garage, and then hopes when someone discovers it they can get top dollar
Seen these weapons more than cars. Dirty Harry movies. Everyone had to have a Dirty Harry 44 magnum. They fired the 44 magnum exactly once, put it back in its box, the magnum never saw the light of day again.
They don't deserve top dollar because they ruined the car by not taking care of it in the first place. Put it in a clean garage, wash it everyone in awhile. This is so sad.
@@hollyboerhave8543 ont get top dollar because of the crossfire injection it was the poverty pete of C3 corvettes doesnt matter how clean rodents will find their way in to sleep off the winter
I grew up in that era .. single days back in 78 and married and started my family by 82 … had a 75 Chevy Nova that I wish I had kept! This brings back nice memories!
With modern cars becoming unfriendly to work on to say the least..... It makes the classics even more desirable. God dam love classic cars. 60s - 2002. The only cars I want.
I'm not a car person at all so I have no idea why this showed up in my feed but I'm so glad I watched. This car is gorgeous!!! All of the guys I went to school with in the '80s would have been drooling over this beauty!
Cross-fire was the worst thing that chevy introduced its very problematic and doesnt make good power. Always avoid the crossfire in the C3 and C4 corvettes
Nice series guys. As mentioned earlier, Congress mandated the 85 mph speedos. I had a 1982 Camero Indy Pacer edition (still regret selling) fully loaded. I also had a friend that I did business with who was the parts manager at my local Chevy dealership. He got me the 140 mph speedo and 245 size Goodyears all around which made a really good handling car even better. Thanks again for your show.
My favorite thing on this vette is the seats I love the color and look so much. I filmed a 65 blue stingray for a client and those seats were so cool because they were silver.
It's not an 8-track - it's a cassette player. 8-track tapes are continuous-loop and possess no reverse and/or "auto reverse" that cassettes have. Also no 8-tracks have no EJECT - just pull it out.
Dad bought a new 71 Plymouth Fury III Brougham - first year GM offered a cassette. In the Fury, it was not in dash (radio was) but was on an isolated pedestal on the transmission hump half-way between firewall and bucket seats (no console). I inherited it in 77. 383 engine. Dad was a Plymouth guy. Bought new a 67 Sport Fury III and changed the crankshaft at 3000 miles to something a little more peppier - quite the sleeper!! 440 Magnum. He was a mechanic - ran his own shop and made a great living for the family. RIP Dad (Father's day weekend). Cassette and CB options were also offered on 82 Corvettes. That's not an 8-track player, though - it's a cassette player. Evidence? No track button, a reverse button is present and has auto-reverse capability. 8-tracks CANNOT reverse - they were continuous-loop tape spindles (tape pulled from center and returned to outside loop). No way to reverse that mechanism.
you should go to Dubai if your looking for rare cars to wash and store because a lot of people will abandon Bugattes, Ferraris, and other rare / expensive cars
Fantastic job guys all the way around! I can only imagine how long it took for you guys to put this together.. I'm a first time viewer of the channel and LOVED it! Much success in the future!
First off thank you for allowing me to remember some very good times! I was fortunate enough when I was 18 to have purchased an '82 collector Corvette with a Gymkhana suspension and loaded. Yeah the first two things I did was to put a new stereo in and replace that speedometer with 160 mph aftermarket. The only thing I regret not doing is they had a low profile blower kit. Honestly the card didn't go that fast, in it's best day a 130 mph. Personally I was not impressed with a crossfire system but at the time it was heading towards port injection. I still remember how quickly I would burn through tires .. but being 18 no duh! The rear hatch was a lifesaver and good or bad in college I would toss a couple people back there .. I never said I was the smartest guy but I had great times with that car. So thank you for reminding me! Kind regards, David
Both of you are , AWESOME, UNREAL ,what you see before , then after , I can't believe people buy a vehicle then put in barn or building, uncovered to weather inside and varments , also I had a 78 corvette , the trays in the glove box , maybe for 8 track tapes , radio cassette player may be newer ,and better. Great job ,to both of you guys ,again 😮

After he passed away, she drove it to get a wash occasionally and when it stopped running, she still cleaned it from time to time. My buddy convinced her to get rid of it and she sold it for only $10K. It looked like it rolled off the factory floor only a few years ago. Best investment he ever made. He didn't have to restore anything. All it took was a weekend working on the engine and replacing a few parts, and he had the thing purring like a kitten.
This Vett belongs in the Corvette museum in Bowling Green Kentucky. Such a beautiful spec.
Not until they move the museum to land that can be trusted not to cave in!!
@vinceemmons I completely agree 👍 I lived in Bowling Green Kentucky for some years nothing but a sink hole. But to be honest this car isn't something found especially these days I just really hope it ends up in a better place than the barn it was in and a museum is more proper.
@@RustyShackleford97 it kills me, looks like at the end you see all of them wrapped up in tarps and back in the same garage they were in for four decades. I appreciate the idea that he’s trying to keep them pristine for another several generations, but that’s going to trap moisture against the vehicles and the next time they’re unwrapped, I’m afraid they’ll find some very bad news! You’re right, they belong in a museum, on display and properly looked after.
@vinceemmons yeah it's unfortunate the other ones were just the same. They probably put it right back in the same spot and will be there for another decade untouched.
@@vinceemmons call it a sinkhole. 2.0
This car better go into a museum! Hopefully the Corvette museum in Kentucky. This vehicle is a prime example of a car that should be in a museum
It won't. These hoarding owners will just let them rot for longer.
Usualy like 5 miles and Just crash
Usually with with no reason.. And BIIIGGG dismay !!! i hope you get to the bottom of that!!
Drive that car!!
it doesn't have to go anywhere lol
I worked at BFGoodrich in Akron, Ohio in the late 70's into the late 80's. One of my buddies south of Akron had a neighbour with 1978 pace car and it was put away with 7 miles on it...I've owned 4 of these cars. The nose was hit, remember it was stored since new on a farm. The emblam on the back probably lifted because of heat in the garage, again summer heat and humidity in NE Ohio. Ecklers in Titusville will have all the trim/molding parts you will need...thank you for washing that car...
A read your post and was born and raised in Akron and lived near Art Arfons owner of the Green Monster, jet engine ,Anyway I know where a 1977 Sting Ray is if it’s still there!
That silver , with black and that hood is a million dollar CLASSIC … WOW
Chevy did actually produce only 1 ‘83 corvette in the C4 style. Last I saw it was white and on display in Bowling Green, KY if I’m not mistaken (without cheating and googling).
The crossfire injection was a leap forward for the Vette and seemed like a rocket ship at the time but was prone to problems and quickly discounted and replaced. Great job guys!
They actually didn’t produce an 83, they were only prototypes. That’s why there is only one, all the others were destroyed and this was supposed to it even was dismantled just not tossed.
This was GM's first attempt at electronically injecting a Corvette. Some of the 60s C2 big blocks had mechanical fuel injection. C&S Corvettes in Florida calls the crossfire injection "Ceasefire Injection" because it was so trouble prone. It only lasted a couple of years on the C4s then replaced by an entirely different fuel management arrangement. From what I've read and heard, 1984 1st year C4 had all kinds of problems, mechanical and electronic.
@@3wrapframe 43 prototypes were built and ordered destroyed, but 1 survived.

I’m a 68 year old lady who has no interest in cars except to get me where I’m going. I’ll drive anything if it’s in working order, clean, and if the AC works…but…I’m in love with these videos because I love seeing something come back to life after being neglected for so long. These guys are amazing in their skills and attention to detail. One of my favorite channels after Mid-West Magic Cleaning. That guy cleans houses like these guys clean cars
There it is! I so remember this beautiful corvette back then! It was my dream car. I cannot believe this owner never drove it. To heck with a museum, I'd be driving it all the time! Oh, and by the way, you guys reached your goal of one million, congrats. ✌
Thank you for bringing us this series. It's been awesome to watch these cars being brought back to life!
We had so much fun! Wait til you see what’s planned for the next few weeks. Even crazier
Such a shame that owner of those "investment" cars didn't even bother to cover them and let mice poo inside ;/ Can't really understand
He's obviously mental why would anybody do that if they weren't

I haven't read all the other comments, so if someone else mentioned this previously, I apologize. It is best to have a face mask or protection from the bacteria that can come from mice especially in America, Hantaviruses can cause serious illness that affects your lungs and kidneys. Hantaviruses are spread from rodents to people. When fresh urine, droppings, or nesting materials of an infected rodent are stirred up, the virus can get into the air. You can become infected with the virus by breathing in the contaminated air.
That’s unpleasant for sure and good to know. Thank u🌹
In 1986 I found a 1963 split window corvette. The license plate had an insurance decal from 1971. I spotted the car down this long gravel driveway. It was in an open carport with the nose barely sticking out. The car had a geen slime growing on the hood. Also just sitting on the hood was mounted deer antlers lol. I went to the house door to inquire about the car, I mean who wouldnt have wanted to buy that car. This little old lady, in probably her 80s came to the door...OMG my heart was beating so fast...I thought this car is mine. Well this sweet little old lady proceeds to tear a strip off me. "Get outa here you young punk" I am not sure if she had a bad experience with someone else or what. I was really polite and explained I was interested in buying it. The car was her husbands (he passed away) and she didnt want to sell it.
Darn
She told me to go away and called me a young punk.… So anyways I started blasting. And now I’m the owner of a nice Corvette
@@noelht1 WOW! What an awesome thing to say.. Just remember the person you wish to blast? May blast back faster! Even an 80 year old woman, she got to that age by outsmarting dummies like yourself!
@@noelht1Class…
she did you a favor.
I am not a Corvette guy, but this is just a gorgeous car. The design, the appearance, the subtle gradient color or the seats door panel and decals is awesome
I agree with OP. Its a fine machine in style and form, the engines were a horror, if my memory serves me aright. Why "Detroit" abandoned elegance and automotive style, is beyound my pay grade
in 38 years old. My dad had a Corvette Poster hanging on his garage wall since I was born, that has 1953 through 1985 Corvettes on it. My whole life I wanted the 1982 Silver one with the gradiant cove decals. I'm sitting here starring at that poster, and this video, and it's the exact car I always wanted.
When I was a teenager, this exact car I had as a poster. The 1982 L82 corvette was and still is my favorite style vette. It's not the fastest, but the design has always caught my eye. Beautiful job on cleaning this one and the other vettes too.
You couldn't get an RPO code "L82" engine in a 1982 Corvette. The only engine was the RPO code "L83" 350 Crossfire (aka Misfire) V8.
We need to hear the story of this guy if he’s alive you need to interview him. Maybe he could explain why he would abandon these cars in the garage for so long. I think it would make for an interesting interview.
Quite a few people put away the 1978 Pace Cars (and the 1982 Colllectors Edition) as "investments." Not the best idea all things considered. So abandoned is a bit harsh, though he could have done a better job with pest control and maybe car covers.
they can't because the whole video is fake.
A lot of speculators thought their new Vettes would be great investments and there were a lot put away with delivery miles on them.
Later C3 Vettes turned out to be terrible investments. Plenty of 78 Pace Cars out there with super low miles that aren't worth big money at all. Dime a dozen on Bringatrailer.
@@G45H3R I would love for you to explain how you think this is fake.
@@MrToySoljathey set it up for UA-cam video what else could he mean?
In 1982 my parents sold a house they slowly built over a number of years & ended up with enough profit to buy another house & a 1982 crossfire Injected silver Z28 with silver & dark gray stripes ... It was the sports car to have that year & the only thing that was more sought after was THAT Crossfire injected Collectors edition 82 Corvette... We ended up in southern Michigan, we had the only 82 Z28 & a retired guy was rocking that 82 Vette you guys are detailing... Great memories...
I owned an 82 Corvette. Mine was not the anniversary car however. The speedometer were mandated not to go over 85 MPH by the government at that time. They when still encouraging energy conservation? Note the highlighted 55 MPH. The car would go faster than 85! The 82 anniversary back window would come up like a trunk. The other Corvettes didn’t. The radios had the option of 8 track, cassette or CB radio. Cross fire fuel injection came out that year. It was rated at a mind blowing 200 Hp.
Very cool looking car. Not a fun car on long trips. No space for luggage and not a soft ride.
It’s sad the owners didn’t do a better job of persevering these cars. Car covers, mothballs, starting them at least twice a year and driving them around the block would have done more good than just letting them sit. Personally, if you can’t drive it, why have it.
Yes, you are correct regarding the speedometer. I bought a new one in 1980 and the speedometer only went to 85 but certainly could go faster. Mine was white with the new burgundy interior. To this day, I still really like that burgundy vs red. Just my opinion.
i love mine on long trips, loads of fun! rides wonderfully, i have this exact car.
Sure hope we get to see vids of the work to come for mechanical/undercarriage/etc to these 'vettes. What a find these are.
Thank you! I knew we were using cassette tapes by this time, so seeing the 8 track on it confused me. And I had no idea that people still used CBs in 82! I thought they went out of style by that time.
Owned an 82 thunderbird that also had a listed 85 max speed. It could exceed this quite easily. I think it is a fun relic and makes a car a bit more unique than its 70s predecessors or late 80s successors.
I lived in Ohio, my neighbor was a farmer. He’s passed now. He always had a corvette in his barn. Every two or three years, he’d trade it in and buy another new one. He made annual trips to Bowling Green Ky to the museum.
Wow
You folks have the best job ever!!!!
I was born in 56, and my favorite ride was a 68 Coronet R/T, so I'm an official old school of this!!
Keep up sharing your content because it truly warms my soul!!
Beautiful job, as always! I don’t know why you guys are like off-camera, but my young boys love watching your videos. I so appreciate that you portray hard work and good character, teachability, kindness, and excellence. What a great example to them! My boys’ favorite thing to do is to pretend to freak out when you spray with the foam. They always joke that you paint all your cars white. 😂

this video brought back memories. My dad bought an 82 corvette a year before he passed away. Exact same colors and everything. Nice work guys
I own an 82 CE Vette. These are such fabulous vehicles with the gradient graphics and interiors. I'm glad this one got saved!
Is he right that it has an 8 track on it? I'm 56 and I know we were using cassette tapes by 82. Shouldn't it have a cassette player?
@@DR-mq1vn you're absolutely right. The 82 Vettes had 8 track players available, but the CE variants came standard with cassette players with an optional CB radio.
@@tarantinoland.automobiles Thanks for answering and clearing this up for me.
Love watching these. What an incredible collection of low mileage Corvettes. You guys rock. Thanks!
Quick tip when removing center-caps, the bottom/middle of the decal should be facing the valve stem to, at 8:51 you can see the bottom of the flags are facing the valve stem which was done from factory. Otherwise great work guys keep it up!

Cross Fire injection came on the 82, then the 84 C4. In 85 the switched to the Tuned Port Injection. The Cross Fire injection quickly got the nickname of "Miss Fire Injection"!
You mean Cease Fire...LOL
I remember that name from the 80's. They never went back to crossfire after having that on any of their cars.
Had an 82 Camaro Z28 with a Crossfire injection in it. Never had an issue with it. Great sounding car too. Jam on the gas, hood scoops open up, and the sound was amazing
Cross Failure Injection😆
I called a crossfire infection 82 z28 POS
33.miles.
I do believe that body style with that color combination is the prettiest Corvette I have ever seen.
What a find
The owner is incredibly lucky to have your generous services on their cars!
You mean the second owner since he said "he found them in a barn". Sketchy. Why can't they ask the "owner" why he just parked them....hmm.
@@5thhorseman982 The Original owner is probably Deceased
@@5thhorseman982 They probably can't interview the owners because the reason they've got access to the cars in the first place is because the owners got old, lost their minds, are in the hospital, or died.

Thanks for consistently bringing us quality, can't-miss content! You all deserve more than 1 million subs.
ps: If this car went faster than 85 mph, it would be my favorite of the 3. Maybe it still is. The styling is super cool.
The car would go faster than 85. The speedometer only went to 85 due to a government mandate at the time. You could actually break the speedometer by driving the car too far past 85mph.
@@tommyhawks856 oh wow. Yeah it’s a looker. I’m glad to hear it goes fast, too.
@@cglenn1457 Well, "fast" is a relative term. It was "fast", for it's day.
I bought 1 1980 corvette in 1982. I still have it to this day and driving it. I will definitely pass it down to one of my grandkids.
I was in my 20’s when this car was around. Awesome.
Amazing. You guys need to interview the owner. What an amazing collection.
As somebody who has been in the resto hobby since 1989 and chased and fought rust for three decades on the same classic car that was well cared for by me but not previous owners, I can't recommend owners just washing old cars like this, that have seen years of dirt and grime pile up. The crud and dust and debris gets washed off the paint and goes somewhere, including drains that maybe were clear and then get clogged by the crud, and inside structures you never see except on the lift.. Pressure washing also can blast right under old, rotted, or poorly fitting seals and gaskets. And Corvettes have fiberglass bodies, but Corvettes are famous for rust you can't see. It also can lift paint chips or clearcoat, particularly on panel edges. That Vette came out really good. I would never do what they did but you can even burn your cars if you want to, they aren't mine. I'd mist about a square foot at a time with detail spray and try gently removing dirt. Yeah it will take some time and product. But that's me, I think 'preserve' first, not 'speed' first because I'm not running a business. Just posting some food for thought based on 35 years of learning the hard way.
This reminds me of a story I read years ago about the discovery of a Model T at the Ford plant that had been built and crated for shipping. For whatever reason, the car never left the plant and was placed into storage. It sat there for decades until the car was discovered during a renovation. It must have been quite a time capsule.
Bikes & Beards has been doing this with motorcycles - finding and buying motorcycles still in the original crates. They bust open the crates, reassemble the bikes then try to get them running.
@@mattskustomkreations very cool, thank you
I was wishing so much to see that beauty get a mechanical tune up , new fluids and see it start up. Great Video! :)
A kid I went to highschool with (1982) drove that same vette. Wow brings back memories! Yes, he was from a very wealthy family.
Oh man, I am very stoked to see you get the 1 million subs! You guys deserve it!
Nice Corvette with some pretty old-school design.
Of all the shows and cars that you have cleaned up, I loved this one the best. Awesome job!
I remembered when the collectors edition came out. I sat in one at the dealership and there was one for sale at another dealership. For someone to buy the car and park it is insane. It’s definitely my favorite car at that time.
I think I’ve seen every corvette online and this one is my favorite. Maybe not the best engine but I love the style
Cross fire injection was only used on the Vette, Camaro and firebird and had problems. Most of the cars that I worked on that were cross fire I changed to a carburetor. They were only 200 Horsepower, it was like driving with the parking brake on.
That is the truth
yeah it was a bad gimmick if i remember.
Have you ever heard of , I guy buying his dream car , and not coming back from overseas… it happens, and that CLASSIC , sits … you guys have a unique and special talent , patience, attention to detail, eye for what I call beautiful machines , your AWESOME , AWESOME !!
"Cross-Fire" Injection was Chevys intro into fuel Injection after years of carborated engines. After the horsepower wars of the late 60s, the early 70s saw the rollback of high horsepower engines and the trend for somewhat better fuel economy after the Oil Embargo of 72'-73'. The Cross-Fire was supposed to offer power and better economy. It didn't do either very well and was only around for 82' on the Vette and 82'-83' Camaro.
Very cool what you did with the flag. Shows class and respect.
My mother had one of those 82 collectors edition Corvettes. There’s a really nice car same color scheme and everything. This is bringing back some memories.
In the 80's they made a law saying speedometers couldn't go past 85MPH, even if the vehicles were capable of doing so because, at the time, they thought it might help prevent people from speeding. This was later dismissed as it didn't affect speeds at all
This one definitely turned out the best. An absolutely brand new car!!!!
Yeh, I share your amazement! I'm a 75 year old ex construction boss, ex landscaper (now retired) in the U.K. and I have just watched every minute of two guys - cleaning a car!!! O.K. a very nice car ( might have been better had it been red!) I nearly bought one once but my wife said it was far too common! ( Well, not they are rare over here but she meant that I was common for wanting one...... she may have a point) Great job etc., etc., but where's the backstory? Why didn't that farmer drive it, (or put a cover over it!) Would've liked to see it fired up and running too.
Well done for Percy Veering to make a success of a channel about car cleaning!!!! There really is hope for the world after all!
This is a common occurrence: owner buys an interesting car (final year or collector model), barely drives it, sticks it in a barn or garage, and then hopes when someone discovers it they can get top dollar
Seen these weapons more than cars. Dirty Harry movies. Everyone had to have a Dirty Harry 44 magnum. They fired the 44 magnum exactly once, put it back in its box, the magnum never saw the light of day again.
And because car been sitting mice made a home.
They don't deserve top dollar because they ruined the car by not taking care of it in the first place. Put it in a clean garage, wash it everyone in awhile. This is so sad.
@@hollyboerhave8543 ont get top dollar because of the crossfire injection it was the poverty pete of C3 corvettes
doesnt matter how clean rodents will find their way in to sleep off the winter
Wait it has a max 80 mph tach? Thats honestly a bit disapointing for a car looking like it would got fast...
I have waited so long for this thank you for this video ❤
I grew up in that era .. single days back in 78 and married and started my family by 82 … had a 75 Chevy Nova that I wish I had kept! This brings back nice memories!
You got the temporary tag from 1987 blurred out! That is absolutely hilarious.
With modern cars becoming unfriendly to work on to say the least.....
It makes the classics even more desirable.
God dam love classic cars.
60s - 2002.
The only cars I want.
I'm not a car person at all so I have no idea why this showed up in my feed but I'm so glad I watched. This car is gorgeous!!! All of the guys I went to school with in the '80s would have been drooling over this beauty!
A 360° walk around would have been sweet!
Great job!
1 million! Let's go, people!!
Cross-fire was the worst thing that chevy introduced its very problematic and doesnt make good power. Always avoid the crossfire in the C3 and C4 corvettes
had it for 40 years with no problems, it had a bad rap from people that did not know how to work on them.
Imagine the owners like "hell yeah thanks! " then stores it in the barn shed again.
Nice series guys. As mentioned earlier, Congress mandated the 85 mph speedos. I had a 1982 Camero Indy Pacer edition (still regret selling) fully loaded. I also had a friend that I did business with who was the parts manager at my local Chevy dealership. He got me the 140 mph speedo and 245 size Goodyears all around which made a really good handling car even better. Thanks again for your show.
I can understand buying and storing for an investment. I can't understand why you wouldn't cover it with a Dust sheet. Makes no sense.
Damn, that red interior in the other car was sweet.
My favorite thing on this vette is the seats I love the color and look so much. I filmed a 65 blue stingray for a client and those seats were so cool because they were silver.
15:55 people walking by it, brushing their legs on it.
Why would a person buy all those and just leave them?? That’s the story I want to hear.

I'm 56 years old. I'm shocked that an 82 Corvette has an 8 track on it. It should have a cassette player. We were using cassette tapes by then.
I am 64 years old. The transition was gradual for many people and maybe Chevy had the option for ordering either cassette or 8 track for this year.
@@michaelt1349
I’m 122 years old and I don’t even know how I’m typing right now. What did you say?
It's not an 8-track - it's a cassette player. 8-track tapes are continuous-loop and possess no reverse and/or "auto reverse" that cassettes have. Also no 8-tracks have no EJECT - just pull it out.
Dad bought a new 71 Plymouth Fury III Brougham - first year GM offered a cassette. In the Fury, it was not in dash (radio was) but was on an isolated pedestal on the transmission hump half-way between firewall and bucket seats (no console). I inherited it in 77. 383 engine. Dad was a Plymouth guy. Bought new a 67 Sport Fury III and changed the crankshaft at 3000 miles to something a little more peppier - quite the sleeper!! 440 Magnum. He was a mechanic - ran his own shop and made a great living for the family. RIP Dad (Father's day weekend).
Cassette and CB options were also offered on 82 Corvettes. That's not an 8-track player, though - it's a cassette player. Evidence? No track button, a reverse button is present and has auto-reverse capability. 8-tracks CANNOT reverse - they were continuous-loop tape spindles (tape pulled from center and returned to outside loop). No way to reverse that mechanism.
you should go to Dubai if your looking for rare cars to wash and store because a lot of people will abandon Bugattes, Ferraris, and other rare / expensive cars
Fantastic job guys all the way around! I can only imagine how long it took for you guys to put this together.. I'm a first time viewer of the channel and LOVED it! Much success in the future!

First off thank you for allowing me to remember some very good times!
I was fortunate enough when I was 18 to have purchased an '82 collector Corvette with a Gymkhana suspension and loaded. Yeah the first two things I did was to put a new stereo in and replace that speedometer with 160 mph aftermarket. The only thing I regret not doing is they had a low profile blower kit. Honestly the card didn't go that fast, in it's best day a 130 mph.
Personally I was not impressed with a crossfire system but at the time it was heading towards port injection. I still remember how quickly I would burn through tires .. but being 18 no duh! The rear hatch was a lifesaver and good or bad in college I would toss a couple people back there .. I never said I was the smartest guy but I had great times with that car.
So thank you for reminding me!
Kind regards,
David
