With its sleek black and silver livery, this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette Pace Car is a rare gem that's been cherished by just two owners over its lifetime. The original owner acquired this beauty from a Chevrolet dealership where it graced the showroom floor until 1993. That's right, this Corvette remained unsold for 15 years, a testament to its exclusivity and desirability. Now, with only 14,681 actual miles on the odometer, this Pace Car edition is a true survivor, ready to thrill its next caretaker. The mirrored T-tops add a touch of flair, while the doors open and shut with the precision you'd expect from a well-maintained classic. Rolling on a set of 15-inch wheels wrapped in 225/60R15 Firestone tires, this Corvette has the perfect stance to tackle the open road. It also comes with its original factory tire/wheel set (in case you plan on entering it in any NCRS show).
Inside, the silver leather bucket seats beckon you to slide behind the wheel and experience the thrill of driving a piece of automotive history. The interior is a time capsule, with virtually no wear, power windows, a tilt and telescopic steering wheel, and a vanity shade in the trunk are just a few of the creature comforts that make this Corvette a joy to drive. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the cabin, from the door panels to the unmarked dashboard.
Powering this Pace Car is its numbers-matching 350 cubic inch V8 engine, rated at 185 horsepower. Paired with a smooth-shifting 3-speed automatic transmission, this Corvette delivers a driving experience that's both exhilarating and effortless. Power disc brakes at all four corners and power steering ensure that this classic is as easy to handle as it is fun to drive.
