Default 82 Collector's Edition - Adhesive Joints

Anybody know about GM using adhesives instead of bolts to join parts
together on the 82 Corvette? I'm wondering if this was among the
innovations used on the Collector's Edition body design.

The body joints were put together with bonding strips & adhesive
somewhjat like dry wall tape ..

Honestly I do not know when they stopped using that method.. but I got
a funny feeling it was not until the C4 came out
