1978 marked the 25th year of uninterrupted Corvette production since the legendary 1953 debut, and to celebrate, all 1978 ‘Vettes wore special Silver Anniversary emblems. The C3 generation was already ten years in the model cycle, and Silver Anniversary enhancements helped facelift America’s sweetheart sports car. If you’re after one of these, or a Seventies Corvette in general, we present this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary as a worthy contender for your bucks, and driveway space. It’s got just 84,320 miles and looks in good nick, inside and out.
Inspired by Larry Shinoda’s Mako Shark II concept car, the C3 entered the scene in 1968 and the wow factor at the time was insane. Here was a car that looked from the future! However, by 1978 the model had been around for ten years. The saving grace came in the form of the Silver Anniversary enhancements, such as nose and tail emblems, a refreshed rear window for the fastback, and a few other minor changes. This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary has all those, plus the iconic Bill Mitchell-sanctioned silver on gray paintwork, the first two-tone factory ‘Vette since 1961. Rolling on aluminum wheels wrapped in appropriately meaty Goodyear Eagle tires, the car looks purposeful even in 2022. The interior is in black and offers seating for two. It’s in good condition for the age, including gauges that still look clear and appear to be in working order as well. This ‘Vette has a few creature comforts such as air conditioning and power windows. The radio is a retro-modern ‘Corvette’ branded unit that plays through Pioneer speakers in the rear. Grip the three-spoked steering wheel, slot the cueball-topped gearlever into first and enter driving nirvana.
Packing the venerable 350ci L82 V8, this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary can certainly rock and rumble, and the seller reports that the previous owner installed a new exhaust as well. However, Seventies America was peak emissions control regulation time, and V8s were being severely strangled. That’s why this powerplant puts out just 220hp, however it was enough for Road & Track to record the zero-to-sixty of a 78 ‘Vette at 6.6 seconds, and hit 127mph flat out, which is quite decent. Power goes to the rear wheels via a four speed manual gearbox.
Every so often, American automakers love to wow the car industry with their truly remarkable creations, leaving even the most critical journalists stunned. This 2022 Chevrolet Corvette 3LT, with just under 14,000 miles, 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 – Look good, go fast, and make a good noise. It's good to see that not much has changed.
When it comes to looking good while going fast, no one does it better than the US. Back in the '70s, you were somebody if you owned an icon like this 1977 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe. Somebody important at that. The Corvette has been around since 1953, and in that over 70-year run, it has built a name for itself being one of the most iconic cars to ever come out of America. This particular one has been fully restored and is ready to take on any adventure. Whether it's a nostalgic trek back into the 70s, or across the country, it will perform admirably.
Here’s one hurrah for the pop-up headlamp generation. 2004 marked the last year of C5 Corvette production, and away with it went these iconic eyes that, over four generations, emerged, rotated or flipped around to say hello. Of course, the C5 is a lot more than a pretty face, it was a technological tour de force at the time. The C5 also marked the arrival of the Z06 badge, as a successor to the C4’s ZR1 top-tier performance variant. If that floats your boat, we’ve got a superb 2004 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Coupe up for sale right now, with just over 1,000 miles on the odometer. Furthermore, it's a Le Mans Commemorative Edition car, and includes the Z06 Preferred Equipment Group. In short, it’s Corvette nirvana for one lucky person – will that be you?
