Vehicle Description

<h2>1978 Dark Blue Metallic T-Top Corvette</h2>Welcome to THE VETTE NET, Nationwide Corvette Brokerage Network. �We've been in business since 1998 and act as "Corvette Matchmakers", serving enthusiasts all over the US and the world.� This Blue 78 Coupe came from the factory with the optional L82 engine, but we got it without it. �A newer engine was installed, a L81 350 from a 1981 Corvette with 80K miles. �The top of the engine was freshened up with new plugs, seals... all tuned up feeling very peppy, responsive and exhibiting lots of power. all new front end (suspension, bushings, joints...) new brake booster, �fresh brakes perform well vacuum headlights got all repaired and work great, new spider valve in dash� new door weatherstripping, new side and rear emblems AC was just redone and blows cold �new 2.5 stainless steel exhaust with long tube headers �MSD HEI distributor with new 8mm plug wires New Edelbrock 650 CFM carburetor, new air filter. �fresh battery �very clean and solid frame �tight rear end �new dash as seen in pictures �instruments and gauges work except clock new tires on factory polished Aluminum wheels. It just received a new paintjob in the original Dark Blue metallic, base coat, clear coat. � As seen in pics, car was completely stripped to gel coat, all imperfections taken care of. � �Paint is not perfect, but pretty darn nice. �Interior was being completely refurbished, carpet cleaned and re-dyed, seats were taken apart, hardware completely rebuilt, seat covers restored and re-dyed to original color. � Car drives exceptionally: engine is happy and responsive with immediate torque at low RPM, being helped by the long tube headers and straight 2.5 inch exhaust. �We estimate the power at around 300 HP which propels this little Blue Rocket like a bat out of hell... As with all these cars, a lot was invested and it seems one is never done... In the spirit of full disclosure, here is what is left to the next owner: radio is present, used to work but it is disconnected. �Glove compartment door could not be properly aligned and is now shut close. �The T-tops' weatherstripping could use replacement... �Other than that, here is a nice little 78 that is ready for drive and show, a great value for the money.
