C4 Corvettes are a unibody construction. The body will not lift off in one piece, leaving a full frame rolling chassis. 1982 was the last year of the old fashioned, body on frame, Corvette.

First take the spare tire top and bottom hanger off the frame.....then disconnect the wires and fuel lines going to the sending unit and after that there are 2 bolts on each frame section holding the gas tank on. to get to these bolts it will be alot easier to take the exhaust and move it to the side...after that is done take off the bolts and there you have it...the tank is out and ready for a new one or repair.

to replace it SIMPLY, set body on tall jack stands,keep the motor and trans in the body (not the frame) by using a ratcheting tie down to tie the trans to body, hold the engine up to the body by cherry picker or tie to rafters in garage,take front and rear diffs out,unbolt frame from body,(unhook wires and gas tank,and lines first) and roll frame out on floor jack. then reassymble with new frame. takes me about a day and a half to do one by myself. yes I have done a few. GOOD LUCK
