We will start off with the exterior of this Corvette. The body on it is phenomenal and shows no signs of abuse or damage. We can see the fit of all the panels is excellent with all the gaps being equally impressive. It's showcased by the two-tone Pace Car Black and Silver color scheme that's accented by the correct decals and red pin striping. This '78 features the T Top option with the mirror tops. All the seals around the tops are in great condition. Also, it has the original glass in it with all the seals and weather stripping being equally impressive. Up front we can see the front bumper and spoiler don't show any signs of abuse. Both hidden headlights go up and down with ease and have a great fit. Out back the rear bumper is just as nice along with the spoiler. To finish off the looks it's sitting on a new set of factory style Pace Car Aluminum Wheels with Firehawk Indy 500 White Letter Tires.
Next, we will look at the interior of this '78. On the inside it's done in the correct color scheme and looks to feature a lot of the original equipment. We can see that the bucket seats are in great condition from the covers to the padding. Both door panels are in excellent condition as well and it features the Power Windows and Power Door Locks that are working as they should. All of the carpet is in very nice condition both up front and in the back storage area where it has the pull shade and tie down for the T Top storage. Looking at the dash you are sure to be impressed as the pad is stunning with no signs of sun damage. It has the tilt column with the factory steering wheel. All the gauges are beautiful and working as they should. The center console is just as nice and his home to the automatic shifter, factory AC control, and the 8 track radio.
Finally, we will get to the heartbeat of this Chevrolet. Under the hood everything has a gorgeous eye to detail from front to back. The previous owner had a brand new 350/350HP GM Performance Crate Motor installed with the Ram Jet Fuel Injection. It's been dressed out with the center bolt finned valve covers. Also, you can see that it's running the serpentine belt system. Along with having the upgraded Air Conditioner it also has Power Steering and Power Brakes with Disc on all four corners. For exhaust it's set up with headers, dual pipes, and new mufflers with rear exiting tips. When we look under this Corvette you are sure to be impressed. With it being a 7,700 actual mile car we can see that all of the frame and floors look like it just came off the showroom floor. The 350 V8 engine runs through the TH200 4R transmission and the stock style rear end. All the bushings in this Corvette are in excellent condition. On the highway it handles with ease and is a blast to drive. It has plenty of power with the Ram Jet 350 engine and has plenty of stopping power. Don't miss out on this low mileage Corvette that's ready to cruise!
