Background Story of this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette

Overview of 1978 Chevrolet Corvette For Sale by Owner

Chevy's Corvette has lived for 70 years as of 2023. Along the way, it's picked up plenty of milestones, and this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary is a celebratory edition of when it hit the 25-year mark. In fact, Chevrolet decided to make the celebrations big, with the result that all 1978 model year Corvettes are considered Anniversary editions. Hence, they received special "Anniversary" badges and emblems to commemorate this momentous event in Corvette history. This particular car has a lovely color, excellent specification, and a decent 72,000 miles on the clock. If you're looking to buy your first classic Corvette or add to an already existing collection, it's the ideal candidate.

Exterior and Interior

This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe L82 has a prominent red paint coat that makes it stand out better. Of course, the muscular and curvy design of the C3 alone is enough eye candy, but couple it with the red paintwork, T-tops, five-spoke wheels, and chunky tall-profile tires, and you've got yourself a real looker. The pop-up headlamps themselves are a style statement, with each cluster sporting twin circular lamps that function as per our photos. Now, it's time to head inside, and to do that, just open a frameless door and get in. The black interior of this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe L82 is a typical two-seat affair, as Corvettes tend to be. It's plush, welcoming, and supportive in all the right places. The current owner reports a new Pioneer radio cassette audio player. There's a tilt and telescoping steering column and air conditioning too. The current owner reports the air conditioning unit to be intact but not working, so some attention is required to get it back to working order.

Engine

This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe packs a 350ci (5.7L) L82 V8 under its hood, which was rated for 220hp at the time. This is pretty decent, given that the Malaise Era was still in force, and most V8s were putting out less than 200hp. Power goes to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual gearbox, making this car a driver's delight, particularly when the zero to sixty was timed at around 6.6 seconds in 1978 by Road and Track Magazine. The current owner tells us that this 'Vette has received a new radiator, alternator, battery, clutch, gearbox, and fluids, including a recent oil change. Furthermore, it's got the Gymkhana specification suspension, which brings stiffer springs and a stiffer front stabilizer bar.

1964 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$69,999
SOLD

Chevy’s second-generation or C2 Corvette has got to be the one with the shortest production run! It was made between 1963 and 1967, and just under 118,000 units were produced during this time. However, the C2 brought us many Corvette features such as pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Sting Ray badge. That’s why getting your hands on a C2 is a smart idea, albeit not one of the easiest. Happily, we have this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible for sale from Newtown, Pennsylvania. The car has just 5,764 miles on it and looks fabulous!

1957 Chevrolet Corvette

PENDING SALE
$114,999
SOLD

In 1953, Chevrolet introduced a car that would shake up the American sports car market. Yes, the Corvette was born that year. With breathtaking styling by Harley Earl, this iconic sports car initially came with a six-cylinder engine that was definitely unsuitable for such an amazing piece of automotive art and mechanical excellence. So, Chevy rectified the mistake by 1955 with the introduction of the Small-Block V8. Initially displacing 265ci, it grew to a 327ci unit by 1962. That’s what we have in this 1957 Chevrolet Corvette, with its 327ci V8 that packs dual quad carburetors and a reported output of 400 horseower. This Washington-based car also comes with its original interior, as well as original Corvette wheels. If you want a special classic Corvette that’s definitely going to be valuable for years to come, talk to us right now.

1960 Chevrolet El Camino

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$39,900

The Chevy El Camino showed the world in 1959 that a pickup truck didn’t have to be a body-on-frame machine with stodgy styling and uncomfortable riding dynamics. Instead, Chevy created a segment called the Coupe Utility, which was basically a seamless integration of cab, chassis and cargo area into one element. This led to a sportier, lower-riding and more comfortable vehicle that could still carry a decent payload in its cargo bed. After all, many buyers of such vehicles didn’t need heavy load-carrying per se, rather they wanted space. The El Camino also gained a reputation in the muscle car class, since it was available with some truly awesome V8s under the hood. Here, we have a 1960 Chevrolet El Camino that’s received a 383 Stroker under the hood, paired with a 3-speed automatic gearbox and a B&M shifter. With just 23,000 miles on its belt, this machine of multiple personas awaits its new owner in Dana Point, California.

$29,999

The Chevrolet SSR LS is a uniquely American performance pickup that blends retro-inspired styling with modern V8 power and convertible flair. Designed as a lifestyle vehicle rather than a traditional work truck, the SSR combines a retractable hardtop roof with a short-bed pickup configuration, offering open-air driving alongside utility-focused features. This LS-trim example emphasizes comfort, usability, and factory-installed accessories while retaining the bold character that made the SSR stand out in Chevrolet’s early-2000s lineup.

1969 Ford Torino Cobra

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$68,999

Ford’s Torino is a midsize car that was sold between 1968 and 1976. It also dabbled in the muscle car segment, with a prime example being this first-generation 1969 Ford Torino Cobra Jet. For buyers who wanted something tamer, there was a host of straight six or V8 powerplants, but the ultimate was the massive 428ci Cobra Jet V8. That’s what this Thousand Palms-based car offers, along with a Marti Report and just 21,000 miles on the clock. In fact, 1969 Cobras like this one are quite desirable due to their rarity since many Torino’s didn’t survive due to a variety of reasons. Perhaps they weren’t quite seen as preservation candidates way back then. Now, a car like this one isn’t a common occurrence, so if you wish to own this Cobra, contact us right now.
