For Sale: 1978 Chevrolet Corvette in Ocala, Florida

Vehicle Description

The 1978 Chevrolet Corvette was the first Corvette to have the now ubiquitous curved glass rear window since the 1967 model year. This unique change gave the entire car a new look. Gone was the flying buttress rear treatment of the 68-77 model years, and while it did not open until 1982, it did give the 1978 Corvette enhanced rearward visibility while also providing nearly three times the available luggage room of earlier models and greater ease of access. A retracting cover was also added to the rear compartment to offer added security and protection from the sun. In addition to the new rear window treatment, 1978 also represented the 25th Anniversary of Corvette production. While Chevrolet did produce a special "Silver Anniversary" edition Corvette to commemorate the occasion, Chevrolet also decided that all Corvette's built that year should also wear special commemorative badges front and rear. The beautiful Corvette you see here is finished in Corvette Red with a Oyster leather interior, a very unique and rarely seen color combination. The outside of this Corvette is in excellent condition and is set off by the addition of Chevrolet Rallye style wheels with chrome trim rings and raised white letter tires. On the inside, you'll find leather bucket seats, power windows, air conditioning, tilt/telescoping steering wheel, and an AM/FM radio. An aftermarket cruise control set up has been installed to make those long journeys easier. The interior is in great condition and reflects the low mileage shown on the odometer. Under the hood is Chevrolet's venerable small block L48 350 V-8 producing 185 horsepower and linked to a four speed manual transmission with excellent spacing for spirited acceleration and low RPM cruising. The rear differential has a 3.36:1 ratio with Positraction to get you off the line in a hurry! Suspension is independent at all four corners with coil springs up front and a single transverse leaf spring in the rear. Body motions are controlled by tube shocks at all four corners and anti-sway bars front and rear. Braking is courtesy of four wheel performance discs.
This is one super clean, low mileage, great looking Corvette. It has all the right options to make it fun to drive and great to cruise in. If you are in the market for a beautiful C3 Corvette, than look no further. Email [email protected] or stop in to our showroom today!!
