It’s 1978 and you are with your Pops on the bleachers watching the 62nd Indy 500. You watch as one of your dream cars, the Chevrolet Corvette C3 leads the way as a pace car, with its black and silver color scheme. Shortly you watch as the legendary Al Unser cross the checkered flag to his third Indy victory. A 1978 Chevrolet Corvette C3 is what lead the way, and to distinguish it from the rest of the Corvettes, the VIN had the number “9” as the eighth digit. In our catalogue we have such a car, a 1978 Chevrolet Corvette pace car reported to be all original and with just 11,000 original miles on the clock, and available in Florida!
This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Pace Car is bedecked in the official 62nd Indy 500 pace car colors, black over silver metallic and features a bright red pinstripe between the two-tone paint along with the front and rear spoilers. It sits on a set of deep-dish alloy wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich tires for that extra grip. The interior is furnished in a matching silver and gray color scheme, along with the specially designed seats and the 3-spoke tilt steering wheel. The speedometer and tachometer proudly peer out from behind the steering wheel. The center console features a cluster of 5 dials with the original AM/FM radio and of course the A/C controls. Just below the gear lever, a special plaque with the “25th ANNIVERSARY Corvette LIMITED EDITION” etched on it. Power windows, rear window defogger, sports mirrors, and power lock doors are standard on this special edition car. Full leather adorns the seats along with gray carpeting with the Corvette logo. A glass T-top and bag come with the car.
This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Pace Car comes equipped with the 350 ci (5.7L) small-block V8. Whilst mated to a 4-speed manual transmission which transferred to the rear wheels, this Corvette was endowed with 185hp of power thanks in part to Rochester four-barrel Quadrajet carburetors. Stopping power is courtesy of all wheel disk brakes. 0-60 mph was clocked in at 6.6 seconds with a top speed of 127 mph.
For Corvette lovers, this is Genesis. The original C1 Chevrolet Corvette was introduced in 1953 and was made for an impressive (by modern standards) nine years before its replacement was unveiled in 1962. Conceived to take on the might of the British sportscar industry, the C1 Corvette was an all-American interpretation of the classic two-seater formula. In 1955, the Corvette got an updated body, which was carried through to our featured car: a 1957 Chevrolet Corvette that comes with a four-speed manual transmission and a 265ci V8 engine. This classic Corvette is ready for a new home. If you’re a lover of old-school American metal, then this could be the car you’re looking for.
This is the car that changed the iconic Corvette’s script: the Chevrolet Corvette C8. By relocating the 6.2L V8 to the middle instead of leaving it at the front, Chevrolet bred a new track monster. The C8 is a beast that costs almost half the price of its European rivals. The example we have for sale is a 2023 Chevrolet Corvette 1LT which is equipped with a Theft Deterrent System, among other choice options. The car has a mere 7,275 miles on the odometer, as it happily awaits its new owner.
When it came time to change the successful formula of the Chevrolet Corvette C1 for its second generation, there’s no doubt the design team would have been more than a little worried. Somehow they did, and the C2 Corvette has become known as an iconic design in the history of American sports cars. The 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray was the last year for the C2 chassis, and it was reported that this generation of ’Vette had originally been planned to be replaced by the C3 in 1967, but the C2 was kept around a year longer. As such, the model benefitted from a light refresh going into ’67, making it one of the more desirable model years. For sale, here is a carefully cared-for example of a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible, complete with original equipment and even an optional hardtop.

The first generation Chevrolet Camaro was the genesis for the long line of models that followed. It set in motion a trend of good looks, tractable power, and all-out performance that is recognized to this day. And none did more for impressionable owners than the Camaro SS. The SS was a performance package added to the base Camaro that included larger engine options and an improved chassis to handle the extra power. It sat below the Z/28 and could be combined with the RS (Rally Sport) appearance package. The car offered for sale here is reported to have undergone a frame-off restoration, which was completed just last year. Since the work was carried out, the new engine has covered less than 2,500 miles.
