Anniversary Limited Edition 1978 Pace car Corvette has been kept in
a climate-controlled environment and has only 926 miles on it. It
has the optional L82 350 V-8 with 220 hp and a special version
Turbo 400 automatic transmission. Options include leather seating,
air conditioning, power steering and power 4 wheel disc brakes,
tilt and telescope steering column and cruise control.Two special
editions were offered to celebrate Corvette's 25th year. Before he
retired, Bill Mitchell had suggested a Silver Anniversary model in
his favorite color-silver, appropriately enough-and it appeared as
the $399 B2Z option package. The first two-tone paint option
offered since 1961, it presented silver over a gray lower body with
a separating pinstripe, plus aluminum wheels and dual "sport"
outside mirrors as mandatory options, which added another $380 to
the cost. 6,502 Indy-500 Pace car replica editions were produced
featuring black/silver two-tone paint, front and rear spoilers,
mirror-tint roof panels and contoured sport seats.
