America’s Sports Car, the Chevrolet Corvette is a car that has been in production since 1953 with eight generations under its belt. The C3 Corvette which was produced from 1967 to 1981 is an iconic car with its Mako Shark design. Up for grabs is a 1978 Chevrolet Corvette with a reported 42,600 undocumented miles on the clock, with a svelte paint job and in excellent condition.
Exterior and Interior
A gorgeous mauve color has this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette been painted in with exclusive hand-painted pinstriping throughout the exterior and the interior. The front features recessed and hidden dual rectangular headlights, while the hood is host to a reversed hood scoop, and flanking hood vents with their grilles painted in black. The hand-painted pinstripe design is visible on the hood as well. The iconic Corvette crossed flags badges are located on each front fender. The rear of the Corvette features dual taillights with a pin-stripe design in the middle, a duck-lip style rear spoiler is molded with the rear bumper. The C3 Corvettes have the gas tank located where the trunk lid would generally be and has the crossed flag badge on the gas tank cap. The car sits on a set of vintage-style wheels painted in silver. The interior is done in a snazzy white leather design. On entry, you can see that the doors have frameless windows, and are also done in white. Pride of place is taken up by the all-white 3-spoke steering wheel with a black cross-stitch and the Corvette logo in the middle. The instrument cluster has the speedometer and RPM done in black. Auxiliary gauges are located on the center console, along with the A/C controls and original AM/FM. The seller reports that the A/C needs to be serviced to function again, and the T-top covers are included in the sale.
Engine
The heart of this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette is a 350ci (5.7L) V8 engine mated to a 3-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission. The seller reports that they are unsure if the motor and transmission are numbers matching. The 1978 350ci is reported to have an output of 185hp. Disc brakes are available on all wheels for excellent stopping power, while the grip is provided by a set of Goodyear Eagle GT+4 rubbers.
This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible Restomod takes one of the most celebrated shapes in American sports-car history and updates the experience underneath without losing the visual drama that made the C2 Corvette iconic. Showing approximately 65,888 miles, this example pairs its Victory Red exterior and black interior with a modern 5.7L LS1 V8, electronic fuel injection, and a 4-speed manual transmission. Vintage Air climate control, Dakota Digital RTX instrumentation, upgraded suspension components, modernized braking hardware, and aftermarket wheels move the driving experience well beyond a stock early Corvette while preserving the low-slung roadster proportions enthusiasts immediately recognize.
Few American performance cars have the visual drama of an early C3 Corvette, and this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod adds a serious dose of big-block attitude to that already iconic shape. Showing approximately 58,617 miles, it wears Tuxedo Black over a Black interior and keeps the unmistakable low-slung proportions, removable T-tops, and cockpit-style cabin that made the third-generation Corvette such a standout. The real story, though, is under the hood, where a 467ci V8 built from a 454ci block brings the car well beyond factory specification. With the current owner reporting 609 HP and 597 LB-FT of torque on 91 octane, this is the kind of Corvette built for someone who wants classic C3 style with considerably more muscle behind the throttle.
The 1977 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe represents the later evolution of the C3, and this example brings a particularly appealing ownership story to the table. Showing approximately 72,741 miles, it is powered by an L48 350ci V8 with a Quadrajet 4-barrel carburetor and a 3-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission. Finished in red over a black leather interior, it retains the classic C3 formula with removable T-top roof panels, Rally wheels, 4-wheel power disc brakes, and dual exhaust. Even more notable, the current owner reports that this has been a single-owner car and that they have been the sole driver since new.

This 1972 Chevrolet Nova is the kind of classic that proves you do not need stripes, spoilers, or a big-block badge to have genuine muscle-era appeal. Showing approximately 53,285 miles, it pairs a 307ci V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor and 2-speed Powerglide automatic, giving it the easygoing, torque-rich feel of a traditional small-block Chevy cruiser. The custom orange finish gives the car plenty of presence, while Rally-style wheels, factory air conditioning, power steering, and power brakes make the package feel especially usable. It is a clean, straightforward Nova built around the formula enthusiasts still appreciate today: V8 power, rear-wheel drive, simple mechanicals, and unmistakable early-1970s Chevrolet styling.
The El Camino has always lived in its own lane—part muscle car, part pickup, and all attitude—and this 1964 Chevrolet El Camino Restomod leans hard into the performance side of that equation. Showing approximately 538 miles, it wears a custom Burgundy finish over a Black Procar interior and packs a 383ci stroker V8 backed by a TH400 3-speed automatic. This isn’t a lightly updated cruiser; the build reaches into the engine bay, suspension, braking system, cabin, and supporting hardware to give the first-year El Camino a much sharper, more modern personality while keeping the long-roofline-meets-pickup-bed silhouette that made these cars so memorable in the first place.
