Vehicle Description

1978 25th Anniversary Corvette L82 3300 Miles!

Why This Car Is Special

The 1978 25th anniversary Corvette we have here at Skyway Classics is a must have for any serious collector. With only 3300 miles on it, it being an L82, and having the Build Sheet, Window Sticker, and a lot of other factory documentation, it is also a homerun of a find and a great addition to any collection.

It was the 25th Anniversary of the beginning of the Corvette Legend and it had a distinctive paint job and striping that set it apart from the other models produced by Chevrolet at the time.

More than that, the 25th Anniversary was the top Corvette offering that year. Adorned with decorative dual color schemes, optional 3-speed automatic transmission, optional leather interior, power locks, power windows, AM/FM stereo, 25th Anniversary paint, and aluminum wheels. You couldn't ask for more in 1978.
