The Chevrolet Corvette is one of those iconic cars where every generation is special. There wasn't really a duff one to speak of, even during the height of the Malaise era in the Seventies and Eighties. Case in point, this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette that's from peak Malaise. Even then, it looks cool and sounds good and will have someone lusting after it. Is that someone you? If so, this car is up for sale with us right now, and it's got just 51,000 miles on the odometer. What are you waiting for?
Dressed in a lovely new black paintwork, this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette looks every bit the icon that it did when it rolled off the GM lines in 1978. It now bears aftermarket five-spoke alloy rims with low-profile tires. If this isn't your cup of tea, the current owner reports that the original wheels are also included in the sale. Let's take a moment to appreciate those gorgeous pop-up headlamps, that muscular stance, and the rakishly angled quad tailpipes at the rear. Furthermore, the current owner includes two sets of T-tops with the car. There's a set of fiberglass tops for when you want to keep cool and a set of glass tops to gaze at the sky, or you could just take off the tops altogether. One car, three ways to go about it. Inside, this car's beige leather upholstery appears to have stood the test of time, as have the clear and neat analog gauges that still look fresh. The current owner says that the radio is an aftermarket unit, and we see it as an Alpine unit with Bluetooth and HD Radio capabilities. We are also told that there are aftermarket speakers installed as an upgrade. If you're a purist, the original radio is included in the sale. Beneath the radio lies the climate control panel, so we assume this car is suitably equipped.
This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette sports a 350ci small-block V8 that put out around 185 horsepower for 1978. The current owner tells us that the engine has received a tune-up and a new carb. Drive goes to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual gearbox. There are also said to be new brake calipers.
Occasionally, a manufacturer comes along that wows the car industry with their truly remarkable creations, leaving even the most critical journalists stunned. This 2024 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 3LZ Convertible, which has just under 2,100 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.
Choosing a seventh generation or C7 Corvette is a smart move if you want a sports car that’s iconic, a definite future classic, and of course, America. Chevy’s eighth-generation Corvette from 2020 onwards shifted into a mid-engined layout and went supercar chasing, making the C7 the last of the front-engined Corvette era. Today, you can find a lovely specimen in the shape of this 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible from Sarasota, Florida, for sale with just over 30,000 miles on the clock. It’s got a host of features and a Corvette brochure is included too.
Being selected as the Pace Car for the prestigious and historically significant Indy 500 is no small feat. Automakers vie for this honor, and Chevy’s Corvette has held the torch multiple times. The Corvette’s first outing as an Indy 500 Pace Car was in 1978, with the C3 generation. Then, the C4 performed pace car duties twice, in 1986 and 1995. The C5 did it twice as well, the C6 racked up a four-year streak from 2005 to 2008 and a fifth time in 2012, the C7 had four outings, and the current C8 has done it five times (discounting the electric E-Ray variant). Chevy has capitalized on these outing as well, creating limited-edition Pace Car variants for lucky customers to buy, own and drive. That’s why this particular 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Indy 500 Pace Car Edition is significant as it marks the start of the Corvette’s Indy 500 Pace Car journey. Only around 6,500 units were made, and this example from Pennsylvania bears just 75,249 miles so far. Snap it up, quick, because it’s a piece of history.
