1978 Chevrolet Corvette 38030 MILES Extra Clean 350ci V8
1978 Corvette with the optional high performance L82 engine and 4-Speed manual transmission in excellent condition with only 38,030 original miles. This drive train combination is the most desirable and sought-after that was available for a late C3 Corvette. This is the best and most performance oriented options one could order for 1978.This Corvette looks excellent, runs great, and is an amazing driver. The car is totally solid with excellent lines and no rust issues. It is finished in the beautiful and exceptionally rare color combination of Mahogany Metallic (82) over Saffron (762). This is the correct and original color scheme as verified by the codes on the trim tag pictured in this ad.Besides the correct paint code, this Corvette is completely "Numbers Matching" meaning the engine and transmission in the car are the correct and original units that were installed in the car new at the factory in 1977. Virtually every part we checked on the car is correct with the proper part numbers and appropriate date codes. We have run the numbers on literally hundreds of Corvettes over the years and there are very few that are so correct and original. Even very detailed parts like the distributor, starter, and even all of the glass is all date coded and original.
This Corvette is ready to be used and enjoyed. We have this car priced to sell and are offering an excellent opportunity to own a clean corvette at an unbeatable value. One could easily buy this car now and sell it for more than the purchase price in years to come as the market on C3 Corvettes is very hot right now and on the rise. The low original mileage is verified not only by the condition of the car, but also the clear Ohio title that shows the mileage as actual. Please peruse all of the photos, video, list of numbers, and other information to get a true sense of how clean and nice this Corvette really is.We first purchased this 1978 Corvette in the winter of 2021. The car was purchased in April 2021 by a local doctor as a gift for her brother in April of 2021. At that time the car had 37,917 original miles. The gentleman took excellent care of the car, used it very sparingly, and always stored it his garage. He said that it never spent one night outside and that it never saw rain in his time with it. We purchased the car back this spring with just over 38,000 original miles.As a side note, this Corvette is not a dealer auction vehicle. We hand-pick each car after careful inspection. Our Corvettes come from owners who expect their car to go to someone that will give the vehicle the same care and attention as they did. We invite and encourage you to examine the car in person or have the car inspected. Please take the time to scrutinize each picture. We photograph each vehicle to the greatest extent so you can feel confident about your purchase. If you have a question about the Corvette, just give us a call.ExteriorThe Mahogany Metallic (82) exterior is in excellent original condition.
