For Sale: 1978 Chevrolet Corvette in Lutz, Florida

Time to get your hands on a black-on-black 'Vette. And not only is this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette a cool midnight machine, but also you have terrific features, like a loaded leather interior and numbers matching V8 power.


Black Corvettes always have an instant appeal, and this one even has a secret. This was the Corvette's 25th anniversary, and the trim tag tells us this was born with the special anniversary two-tone silver. The result is a car that can celebrate its history and also look like a mean machine. Also, because the black paint was an upgrade later in life, today you'll find that it continues to retain an attractive luster today. That good gloss does a great job of highlighting the quality fit of the good panels. In fact, while the odometer represents the full actual mileage, that really just means this classic has only averaged about 2,700 miles annually. Brightwork was kept to a minimum compared to previous years, and so you recognize sporty standouts on this dark coupe like the alloy wheels, dual exhaust tips, and special 25th anniversary badge leading the way.


The interior shows the right mix of care and investment to make sure you'll proudly take out the T-tops and show off this car's full midnight package inside and out. It's loaded with great features, like supple leather seats, power windows, a tilt steering column, an electric rear defogger, and cruise control. There are even the little things, like the working clock, working dome lights, and T-top storage bags that let you know this has been under detailed care. Plus, there are great upgrades when you want a driver's car. The factory air conditioning has been upgraded to modern R134a refrigerant, and it likely just needs a recharge to blow ideally cold again. The radio is now an AM/FM/CD unit with USB and Bluetooth, and the upgraded speakers make it great to put on your favorite music and go for a wind-in-your-hair drive.


This Corvette is powered by its numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch small block. The V8 has a clean look where you can see the full Edelbrock upgrade suite that includes the four-barrel carburetor, intake, finned valve covers, and matching air grabber. It's supported by the right pieces with everything from an MSD coil/distributor to a newer fan. This is the kind of coupe that's great for driving any time. The fully independent suspension, power steering, three-speed automatic transmission, and four-wheel power disc brakes make for a classic that you'll happily enjoy for far more than just quick Sunday drives.


The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and title documentation. This is the classic Corvette with a well-done dark style and plenty of the right added comforts. It makes for a great total package, especially at this affordable price. Call today!!!
