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.

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.

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.

As a Brit, child of the 80's, this era of Corvette were the coolest cars ever to me!

I do wish there was like a companion channel showing the cars either driving or being sold, like an epilogue.

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

This Vett belongs in the Corvette museum in Bowling Green Kentucky. Such a beautiful spec.

The Corvette is one of the only vehicles that looks good in every year that it was made.

Came here from someone who stole your video ❤

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!!!!!

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. ✌

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.

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.

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.

Wow, this really takes me back. I bought a used '81 Vette in 1986 that had only 14,000 miles on it. Dark Blue with a Silver Leather interior. It was a 350. 4-speed with a 4-barrel CARBURETOR. After checking the VIN, I discovered it was one of the very last Vettes made at the St. Louis plant before they moved production to Bowling Green. I loved it, except for the silly 85mph speedometer. I drove it as my daily driver for 4 years until. . .It was hit TWICE in one month by drunk drivers. Once while parked under a carport at an apartment complex and the next time while I was driving it. I hadn't even had the damage from the first drunk fixed yet. Getting my money from the insurance company was more difficult and took longer than it should have, and I ended up selling it in damaged condition to a guy who restored Vettes. Watching you work on this '82, which looks very much like my '81, made me wish I still had my old Vette. It only had about 44,000 miles on it when the drunks took aim at it. With one more year to pay it off, I was gonna park it and have fun detailing it while keeping the mileage pretty low. Oh well, just wasn't meant to be I guess. But I really enjoyed watching you work on this one!

I was wishing so much to see that beauty get a mechanical tune up , new fluids and see it start up. Great Video! :)

Thank you for bringing us this series. It's been awesome to watch these cars being brought back to life!

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

Of all the shows and cars that you have cleaned up, I loved this one the best. Awesome job!
