Vehicle Description
With its full blackout style, loaded interior, and upgraded V8 this
1978 Chevrolet Corvette has a ton of appeal. And with this value
price, you know you're going to have to act quickly if you want to
get it in your garage.
The black paint has an aggressive attitude, and at the same time,
it also gives off a solid shine we all want. It's quite nice to
have a single-stage paint that was an upgrade later in life. It has
the right hint of age today to give this a distinctive style that
makes this one almost look just like a glossy survivor. Of course,
the reason why this has so much overall appeal is that the body
panels are straight. These late C3 cars are gaining a nice
following as people begin to appreciate the features like the
sporty front air dam, fastback profile, and clean chrome-free body.
But even with this aggressive look, this also still has room for
classic American brightwork on places like the aluminum wheels and
the special badging that reminds you 1978 was the Corvette's 25th
anniversary.
The dark attitude continues inside. The fundamentals look so clean
from nice investments that you'll happily cruise with the T-tops
out to show it off. You've got all the right premium features, like
power windows, a tilt/telescopic steering column, and cruise
control. It even has good details, like the retractable privacy
screen for the cargo area and working dome lights. There are even
distinctive upgrades, like the bold red floor mats and a
retro-style AM/FM radio with modern stereo speakers. And driving is
what this one really does best. You have the comfy high-back bucket
seats, a large speedo, and tach directly in front of you, and the
auxiliary readout is placed in the center of the dash so they're
always easily seen. This was born an A/C car, and the controls are
still there. But they removed the other components to focus on
performance when they added a more powerful motor.
While the 350 cubic-inch V8 was the engine of choice for the '78,
this one turns it up a notch. It's a fresher and powerful crate
motor. This has a nice Edelbrock suite with a polished air grabber,
matching valve covers, and performance intake. There's also a
four-barrel carburetor, HEI distributor, and an aluminum radiator.
It fires up eagerly and makes a nice tune out of the Magnaflow
mufflers on the dual exhaust. This upgraded power allows you to
enjoy the fully independent sports suspension to the fullest. Plus,
you have all the right anytime driving features, like a three-speed
automatic transmission, power steering, and four-wheel power disc
brakes.
Complete with owner's manual and service manuals, this is a dark
iconic coupe with upgraded power and personality. So you know you
need to get your hands on this deal. Call now!
