This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette L-82 Pace Car led the field at the
Indianapolis 500 - America's most prestigious race. With just 6,990
believed actual miles, this special edition rocks the official
black and silver livery that ignited the crowds at the Brickyard.
The iconic design features official Indy 500 graphics and red
accent striping that amplify its racing pedigree. The removable
T-tops open up the cockpit, while 15-inch polished aluminum wheels
wrapped in 255/60R15 tires plant this piece of racing history
firmly on the street.
The silver leather cockpit channels pure Indianapolis racing
spirit. Racing-inspired bucket seats keep you planted through the
corners while the factory console-mounted shifter sits perfectly
positioned. The AM/FM 8-track stereo provides the soundtrack, while
air conditioning and power steering deliver excellent control. The
original clear protective steering wheel cover remains in place - a
remarkable detail that verifies this Corvette's preserved
condition.
The 350ci L-82 V8 brings race-inspired performance through a
4-barrel carburetor, backed by the reliable TH350 3-speed automatic
transmission. Four-wheel power disc brakes deliver track-worthy
stopping power. The factory dual exhaust produces a signature
Corvette sound. The coil spring front suspension and transverse
rear leaf spring setup provide the handling that made these cars
famous around the most famous oval in racing.
