Vehicle Description
Worldwide Vintage Autos is pleased to present this 1978 Chevrolet
Corvette. Collector owned and stored in heated / air conditioning
garage since new!
HISTORY
1978 was the 25th anniversary of Corvette. To celebrate a competely
re-designed body was rolled out with new "fastback" styling. The
new wrap-around rear window provided much more space behind the
seats but was not a hatchback. Access to the storage space is still
accessed from behind the seats. All Corvettes this year came with
special 25th anniversay badging. A special "Anniversay Edition"
included a unique Charcoal Silver/Silver Metallic two-tone paint
job for an extra $399. Production of the anniversay edition was not
limited and 15,283 Corvettes were eventually sold with this paint.
The 1978 Corvette was the pace car for the Indy 500. Chevrolet
created a limited edition pace car replica, this option added over
$13,000 to the price of the car (more than the base price!). This
car has distinctive Black/Silver two-tone paint with a red
pin-stripe. Production of the pace car replica was limited to one
for every Chevrolet dealership. This amounted to 6,502 pace cars
built in 1978. All '78 Corvettes were built with Rochester Q-Jet
carburetors.
