The bright red appearance enhanced V8 power, and driver-friendly
style make this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette attractive. But the whole
package is irresistible when it's also offered at such an
affordable price.
Bright red paint is always the right choice for a cool classic
Corvette. This finish is a later respray that strikes the right
balance of a nice glow in the sunshine, and at the same time, it
has a driver-quality appearance that's easy to take out on a whim.
And that's the overall goal of this Corvette. It looks good when
you're out having fun. So there are good details like clean glass,
pliable weather-stripping, and complete and bright chrome on
rockers and rally wheels. Plus, there's an extra distinction from
the polished dual exhaust tips and black decals that showcase the
hood's power dome, adding a sportier style.
While the exterior is red with a hint of black, the interior has
been customized to flip the color theme. We like this all-black
style with a custom touch of red on the doors and center console.
You've got all the right premium features, like power windows,
power locks, a tilt/telescopic wheel, an electric rear defogger,
and iconic T-tops. There are also provisions for features like air
conditioning and power locks, and they will need servicing and/or
parts to function again properly. There is even an AM/FM/CD stereo
with a USB input for the best in modern driving music. And driving
is what this one does best. You have the bucket seats, the sports
steering wheel, and a full gauge package set up high, so your eyes
never need to stray too far from the road.
Power comes from Chevy's 350 cubic inch V8. This one benefits from
performance upgrades like an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, an
Edelbrock aluminum intake, and headers feeding an updated dual
exhaust and Flowmaster mufflers. This powerful package is also
built to be a strong runner, so you have nice features like an
electric choke and an aluminum radiator. We love these C3s because
of the vintage style, but the driving experience is fun. That's why
you have a fully independent suspension, upgraded Bilstein shocks,
a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and
four-wheel power disc brakes.
An attractive red Corvette with this much distinction is usually
not this affordable. So you know you need to hurry on this deal.
