For Sale: 1978 Chevrolet Corvette in Lithia Springs, Georgia

Vehicle Description

Meet a true unicorn - a 17,858-mile 1978 Corvette 25th Anniversary edition, purchased new by a GM engineer who meticulously documented every detail for 46 years. The two-tone Silver Metallic and Dark Gray paint scheme creates an unforgettable presence, amplified by factory-correct crossed-flag emblems and distinctive anniversary badging. The T-tops offer open-air thrills, while period-correct 15-inch aluminum wheels wrapped in 225/70R15 tires complete the muscular profile. Front and rear spoilers emphasize its low-slung design.

The black leather interior remains showroom-fresh, preserved by decades of careful ownership. The bucket seats maintain their original contours, complemented by a perfectly positioned 4-speed shifter rising from the center console. Power steering and factory air conditioning provide modern comfort, while the AM/FM radio delivers classic tunes. The instrument panel presents crystal-clear gauges, offering vital information at a glance.

The numbers-matching 350 V8 L48 engine pairs perfectly with its Saginaw 4-speed manual transmission - a rare combination found in only one of every six '78 Vettes. Four-wheel power disc brakes provide strong stopping power. Recent investments include a new aluminum radiator, clutch assembly, transmission bearings, and seals. The dual exhaust system produces an authentic soundtrack that only American V8 muscle can deliver.
