Hailed as the first collectible Corvette from the factory, the1978
Corvette Indy Pace Car was one of the first new vehicles with large
mark ups over sticker price due to the limited production run. Only
6,502 Indianapolis 500 Pace Car Corvettes were produced in 1978,
and this one is a highly optioned, incredibly clean example with
low original miles.
These cars were even given a special VIN sequence, which had never
been done before by Chevrolet. 1978 was also the 25th Anniversary
for the Corvette, making this a very special year and car. It would
be a great addition to any collection of Pace Cars, Corvettes, or
rare classic cars. Of course it is finished in the beautiful black
and silver two tone paint combo with red accent stripes on the body
and wheels to tie it all together, as well as the Official Pace Car
door decals! Limited to pace cars only, this one features
distinctive front air dams and rear spoiler to give them an even
more aggressive appearance.
The long list of options include the more powerful L82 engine,
power windows, power locks, tilt steering, AM/FM radio, mirrored
t-tops, leather interior, alloy wheels, radial tires, power
steering, A/C, and 4-wheel power disc brakes. The L82 engine was
rated at 220 horsepower and is backed by a 3-speed automatic
transmission. Best of all this C3 runs and drives like a dream
because it has only traveled just over 14,000 miles since new as
documented by the title.
Open the doors and you will see a nice honest original silver
interior that appears to be just as it left the factory! Power
steering, power brakes, power windows, and power door locks make
this baby feel like a luxury car with the heart of a sports car.
Pop the T-Tops off and feel the wind in your hair, or seal her up
and put the nice cold blowing factory air conditioning or heat on
and set your desired temperature. This is a ton of collector car
for the money and certainlywill not last long! Please call us soon
before it is too late!
