1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary Edition Why This Car Is
Special The Corvette was 25 years old in 1978 and the celebration
was on. All 1978s featured a commemorative badge (right) on the
front nose, a special two-tone paint scheme consisting of dark
silver on the lower body and light silver above separated by a dark
silver, factory alloy wheels, and performance tires. We have a very
nice 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary Edition here at
Skyway Classics that runs and drives well and has a great
presentation. Features 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary

Exterior 1978 was a year of significant changes to the C3 Corvette.
A new 'fastback' design which made for a smoother silhouette and
answered criticisms of limited luggage space; owners now had
storage similar to the mid-years Corvette coupes. The exterior is
in great shape, the paint is a distinctive Silver/Dark Silver
two-tone paint scheme consisting of dark silver on the lower body
and light silver above separated by a dark silver stripe. It rides
on Factory Aluminum wheels with BF Goodrich raised white letter
tires and makes a great sound out of the dual exhaust system and
rear tailpipes. Conclusion The 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver
Anniversary Edition we have here at Skyway Classics is a must have
for any Corvette collector but is also a great addition to any
collection. It is one nice and quick Corvette you will love to take
to shows or just enjoy driving. Disclaimer Information found on the
