Few cars throughout history have had the honor of acting as the
official pace car for the Indy 500, but the iconic Chevrolet
Corvette has added this to its history over the years. This 1978
Chevrolet Corvette 25th Anniversary Pace Car edition is one of the
official pace car replicas built by Chevrolet to commemorate the
1978 Chevrolet Corvette leading the pack at the 1978 Indianapolis
500. This Pace Car edition Corvette is extremely original and
presents as factory stock without any modifications. The
originality of this Corvette is evident as soon as you walk up on
the classic Corvette. This well preserved, Pace Car edition
Corvette presents nicely in its factory original Black/Silver,
two-tone paint. The original Black/Silver exterior paint shines
very well but is starting to show its age. The original fiberglass
is in good overall condition but the seems in the front and rear
fenders are beginning to show through the paint. The exterior is
complimented nicely by the factory, polished aluminum wheels. The
glass T-Top roof panels are in very good condition. The original
Grey Vinyl and cloth interior is in very good condition with only
minor wear present. Powering this great Corvette is its
numbers-matching, L48 350 cubic inch V8 backed by its 350
Turbo-Hydramatic, 3-speed automatic transmission. Both the engine
and transmission perform just as they should without issue. This
Pace Car edition Corvette is nicely equipped with factory options
such as: power steering, power disc brakes, air conditioning,
in-dash tachometer, tilt/telescopic steering, power windows, power
door locks, intermittent wipers, cruise control, rear defrost, and
AM/FM stereo. If you are in the market for a rare and highly
original, Pace Car Corvette that runs and drives just as a 51,000
mile Corvette should, then you will want to take a very close look
at this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette 25th Anniversary Pace Car.
