1978 Chevrolet Corvette

1978 Chevrolet Corvette â?" Two-Tone Silver/Charcoal, 4-Speed Manual, 27,700 Original Miles Why This Car Is Special The 1978 Chevrolet Corvette was no ordinary model year. It marked the 25th anniversary of the Corvette nameplate, and Chevrolet made sure the occasion meant something. The C3 body received its first significant restyling since 1968, gaining a fastback roofline with a large wraparound rear glass hatchback â?" a change that dramatically improved both rearward visibility and cargo access. The new rear window treatment gave the 1978 Corvette a look that was more contemporary than any C3 before it, and it helped push sales to 46,776 units, a record that stood for the generation. This particular 1978 Chevrolet Corvette carries two details that make it more interesting than a standard entry-level example.
