What do you do when you’ve created a hit and its 25th birthday is coming up? A Silver Anniversary edition! That’s precisely what Chevrolet did with the 1978 model year of the Corvette, celebrating 25 years of producing America’s sweetheart sports car. Unlike limited edition production runs, all 1978 ‘Vettes got the Silver Anniversary treatment. Isn’t that nice? Here’s one of those cars on sale, a 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary in our inventory with just 16,500 miles run. It’s a numbers-matching vehicle for added authenticity and has reportedly been recently serviced.
By 1978, the distinctive Mako Shark-inspired lines were ten years old as the C3 debuted way back in 1968. Chevrolet responded for the Silver Anniversary model by introducing some styling tweaks, the most dramatic of which was a restyled fastback rear window. This actually improved aerodynamics and increased luggage space, making it a win-win. Also special for 1978 was the Bill Mitchell introduced silver and gray two-tone paintwork as witnessed on this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary, as well as special nose and fuel door emblems to commemorate this milestone. You’ve got removable T-Tops as well for open-air motoring at will, and they neatly stow in the trunk so no need to leave them at home. The muscular stance is further enhanced by the period alloy wheels wrapped in thick Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires. The interior on this ‘Vette is in a refreshing shade of white, for two occupants to enjoy. Corvettes always came well equipped, and this one packs air conditioning, power windows, power mirrors and an 8-Track stereo. There’s even a selection of 8-Tracks in the glovebox of Queen, The Doobie Brothers, Moody Blues and Bob Seger, while the deck itself has The Kinks in it. We don’t know if they still play though – that’s up to the new owner to discover.
This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Anniversary is equipped with a 350ci (5.7L) V8 that put out 185hp, good for zero to sixty in under 8 seconds, and a top speed of 123mph when paired with the automatic transmission that sends drive to the rear wheels. Remember, this was the Seventies, when emissions regulations really strangled these monster engines to produce low power figures. However, they are massively tunable to produce much more than the stock figures.
Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.
Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.
This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette is everything you want with a classic ‘Vette. It’s powerful, it’s stylish, and it has a big V8. With 1,637 miles reported on the clock, this is a car that has seen history play out, and stays timeless in every era. With removable T-top roof panels, a few upgrades to the engine and BFGoodrich Radial tires, this car is ready to be claimed for your garage.
Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.
The first new Chevy truck to come out since World War II ended, the Advance Design era ran between 1947 and 1955. It replaced the older AK series and was bigger, stronger and sleeker in design. The range started with the 3100 half-tonner, and went on through the one-ton 3800, and into chassis cabs and medium-duty trucks. Now, the Advance Design has found some fame as a restomod platform. That’s what we have here, a 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod from Smithville, Texas. This truck has undergone a full makeover, including a new 396ci V8, a 4-speed automatic gearbox, air conditioning and much more. If you want to rock and roll around in something different to your typical classic car, this is a fine option to consider.
