Overview of 1978 Chevrolet Corvette 25th Anniversary For Sale by Owner

When twenty-five years of the Corvette rolled around, the model was in the late stage of the C3, or third-generation variant. Instead of creating a limited-edition run, Chevy decided to make all 1978 'Vettes a celebratory one. Hence the presence of cars like this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary, which sports the special Silver Anniversary paint job as well. With just 49,500 miles on the clock, this 'Vette has got some tasty upgrades to boot.

Exterior and Interior

The special silver over gray paint job was the idea of GM's Bill Mitchell, who suggested it before he retired. Not all 78 'Vettes had it, as it was optional. That makes this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary all that more special. The current owner tells us that it rolls on a set of 17-inch American Racing alloy wheels, which give it a lovely period vibe. Other interesting features on the exterior of this car include its twin T-tops for a spot of open-air motoring and its pop-up headlamps. You'll also find the requisite badging to be in great condition. Inside, there's a cozy black cabin for two occupants on leather-trimmed seats. This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary has got air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, and a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel. It's also got an aftermarket sound system in the trunk, replete with a subwoofer. This is controlled via a Kenwood Excelon head unit that supports CD, USB, and AUX connectivity, as well as FM radio. We must also mention the gauge cluster that looks in similarly great condition for its age.

Engine

This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary is powered by a 350ci L82 V8, but it's got a few upgrades to enjoy. We are told that it's been endowed with long tube headers, a dual exhaust, an Edelbrock Performer air intake and air cleaner, a Super Stock wires, and an ignition system. Drive goes to the rear wheels via a three-speed automatic transmission. There's also power steering as well as power brakes.

1998 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

For Sale
ASK: $13,299
Miles: 219,621
Estimated: $124.22/mo

The 1998 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 marked a major turning point for Chevrolet's legendary pony car, introducing the aluminum-block LS1 V8 and bringing a new level of performance to the fourth-generation F-body platform. Finished in Arctic White over Dark Gray, this particular Z28 stands out with an extensive engine and drivetrain rebuild performed by LSxperts at approximately 198,000 miles. According to the current owner, the entire drivetrain was rebuilt, including engine reboring, returning the mechanical components to a refreshed condition approximately 21,000 miles ago. While the chassis shows approximately 219,621 miles, the rebuilt powertrain has accumulated only around 21,600 miles since the work was completed. Performance enhancements include a Brian Tooley Racing Stage 1 camshaft kit, upgraded cooling components, a true dual glass-packed exhaust system, and dyno tuning to complement its modified LS1 powerplant. Paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, removable T-top roof panels, and factory 16-inch chrome aluminum wheels, it delivers the ingredients that made the LS-powered Camaro a favorite among American performance enthusiasts. Additional highlights include a customized audio system, ambient interior lighting, and available vehicle build documentation. For enthusiasts who appreciate naturally aspirated V8 performance, the involvement of a manual gearbox, and the extensive tuning potential of the LS platform, this Z28 offers an exciting combination of classic F-body character and a substantially refreshed drivetrain.
