Vehicle Description
A timeless color combo, the numbers-matching V8, and a ton of
potential headlines, this value-priced 1978 Chevrolet Corvette.
Red Corvettes always have an instant appeal, and the paint is not
the only indicator that this is a car for the bold. This has
upgrades like a full-width rear spoiler and a proper full dual
exhaust. The car is also nicely detailed with alloy wheels, glass
T-tops, and the badging that reminds you that 1978 was the
Corvette's 25th anniversary. The value price is there to leave room
in your budget for updating the finish and any other projects you
want to create a C3 that's more of a reflection of you. And while
you may work on the details, the pictures show you that this one
looks attractive out on the road, and it won't make you think twice
about breaking in some new asphalt.
The T-tops let you open this up to the world, and the
factory-correct white interior makes for a timelessly attractive
look against the red. It delivers a loaded feeling and plenty of
stock style. You have great factory features like leather
upholstery, power windows, an electric rear defogger, and a
tilt/telescopic steering column. There's also potential to restore
factory features like air conditioning, power locks, and tach if
desired. So just like the exterior, the fundamental appeal to all
of this is a complete car and the ability to make it quite
personal.
Under the hood is the 350 cubic-inch V8. It's the numbers-matching
motor, so it's interesting to have it so honest with the right look
of patina. These are hardy motors, and this one inhales deeply with
a four-barrel carburetor. And it exhales with a nice tune thanks to
a proper dual exhaust. There are also solid cruising features like
a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, four-wheel
power disc brakes, and the nimble, fully independent
suspension.
This is an affordable Corvette with the right features for today
and plenty of potential for tomorrow. So don't miss a great
driver's classic. Call now!
