Owning a classic car can be quite a daunting task. Sure, you might love those weekend drives but what happens if the car breaks down and you can't seem to source the right part for your beloved car. Days turn into months and many weekend drives are forsaken thanks to a simple component that could not be found. With the car we have today you would not have the trouble of sourcing parts due to its popularity. Up for sale, today is a lovely 1978 Chevrolet Corvette. Located in New York and with just a reported 54,100 miles on the clock, this wonderful example of a C3 Corvette can serve as your weekend drive minus the troubles of owning a classic car, as parts are plentiful owing to the strong enthusiast community.
1978 marked the 25th anniversary of the Corvette name and this meant a few styling changes were in order to refresh the C3 Corvette. Amongst the changes were the introduction of a two-tone paint job, whilst this car doesn't have the original black and silver exterior paint it does sport a custom black and gold two-tone exterior which makes it special in its own way. It also brings out the T Top feature of this car well. There is a rear window defogger in case of poor visibility on those cold and damp days. This C3 Corvette further stands out with a set of custom wheels that pay close resemblance to a set of Fuchs alloy wheels. The wheels are black in color with the Corvette insignia on the center cups. Corvettes have always had some great interior layouts over the years and this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette is no different. The interior is black in color with the seats and other interior components being original and in really great shape. The 1978 model year saw the aircraft styled dashboard making a return. This vehicle's dashboard with all its gauges and clusters are in amazing condition, you even get the original steering wheel which adds to this car's originality factor. Also present on the aircraft styled dashboard is a JVC stereo neatly blends into the dashboard and ensures those good old tunes are done justice whilst on a drive.
Whilst originality is key in classics it does not hurt to push your car's performance just a little bit using the right components. This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette with its 350ci V8 engine is original and is a powertrain that could be tweaked to squeeze out a bit more performance if you desire to. The automatic transmission in the car sends its power to the rear wheels. The battery in the car has also been reportedly replaced, with the brake pads also being recently replaced to ensure the car stops the right way. In terms of suspension the car is equipped with Bilstein shocks for better handling and a smoother ride feel. There is also a custom muffler with black exhaust tips in place to allow this vintage American legend to breathe freely and sing proudly.

The second-generation Chevrolet Corvette (C2) is where the legendary Corvette inherited its sharp lines and looks that are still used to this day. This new design over the first-generation Corvette did not only present itself with a spectacular view but also newfound handling prowess. The new lighter body meant this convertible found more acceleration than its predecessor, even though the power remained the same and the new suspension significantly improved handling. All the 1963 cars came out with 372 ci engines, making 250 horsepower as standard, with optional variants like this particular restored model we have for you today, which can produce a whopping 340 horsepower. All this excitement for the second-generation Corvette resulted in an increase of 50% in units built compared to the then-record-setting 1962 version. This made the C2 an automotive icon of the past and present. We’re told that this 1963 convertible American beauty, for sale in Rosamond, California, has only done less than 1000 miles on the odometer after restoration. The current owner also reports that the numbers are matching for the motor and transmission, however documentation cannot be provided.
Occasionally, a manufacturer comes along that wows the car industry with their truly remarkable creations, leaving even the most critical journalists stunned. This 2022 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 3LZ Convertible, which has just under 1,600 miles on the odometer, is a car that would knock the socks off all of its competitors. The Corvette name has been around since 1953, and in that over 70-year production run, it has always fulfilled its purpose through GM’s tried and tested formula – Look good, go fast, and make a good noise. Nice to see that not much has changed.
It’s hard to believe that it's been four years since Chevrolet first revealed to the world the all-new 8th generation mid-engine Corvette. At that time, Chevy did a phenomenal job completely changing the perception of the Corvette, especially with its exotic car looks and mid-engine design. It not only has exotic sports car performance but also is easy to live with on a daily basis. Compared to its competitors, it has an affordable price tag, which brings exotic-level performance within reach to a broader audience. The C8 is offered as both a convertible and a coupe, and what we are showing in this listing is a 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Premium 3LT Coupe. It only has 7,500 miles on its odometer and is available for sale in Florida.

The Chevrolet Impala has played the role of the Bowtie’s flagship full-size car for years. Produced over ten generations, the Impala was first introduced in 1957. Named after the eponymous African antelope, the first generation was strictly a two-door affair. Buyers could choose a coupe or convertible. If you’d like to own a classic Impala but with a bit more pep up and go, this 1958 Chevrolet Impala is a worthy contender. The car comes with an upgraded engine, but remains otherwise stock as far as possible. That makes it a lovely classic car to own and drive, but something to surprise other classics with when the mood strikes.
