Despite its more than 40 years of service, it's running great and ready to hit the road just as soon as you get it home. This is a sharp, appealing classic in its present form and just a little TLC is all that would be needed to take it to a whole new level.
The distinctive two-tone color configuration this commemorative '78 wears pays visual homage to its Mako Shark II concept car inspiration, reversing the positions of that pivotal car's dark gray and silver colors. There's no doubt that this classic will attract plenty of attention just as it is - and certainly it offers just the road ready mechanical condition to hit the asphalt without delay - but some well-placed attention will definitely yield aesthetic dividends. There are no serious blemishes to contend with, but the exterior could use some refinement to regain its full shine. The flowing fenders and futuristic profile that set its third generation form apart from previous editions are still well aligned and the retractable headlights, a defining feature of this model, sit flush against the lengthy hood and raise without issue. The T-Top configuration provides a quick and easy conversion from open air motoring to a more sheltered environment in just a couple of quick steps.
While you can see some signs of the passing years here and there on the surfaces of the distinctive oyster-colored leather interior - this car is more than four decades old, after all - overall, it's in solid shape and still retains its factory configuration. The buckets are still plenty comfortable and the door panels show less wear and discoloration than you'd expect for a car of this age. The leather-wrapped factory steering wheel sits on top of a tilting/telescoping column, so you'll have no problem getting into that perfect driving position, while just beyond it, the dash area looks fresh, with its comprehensive assortment of functional gauges extending from instrument cluster to the center of the dash behind clear, readable lenses. A simple coolant recharging is likely all that will be needed to get this classic Chevy's air conditioning system back to top form - all of its components are securely in place and it blows with conviction but not quite as cold as you might like. Additional comfort features include power door locks and windows, a rear window defogger and an AM/FM/Cassette stereo.
The 350 cubic inch V8 beneath the sweeping hood is almost certainly original and, due in part to its unusually light usage, is running nice and strong. It's armed by a 4-barrel carb and is at the center of a well-maintained engine compartment that's still in its original configuration, down to the properly painted air cleaner and induction system extending forward. Just behind it is a 3-speed automatic transmission that shifts with slip-free precision. Smooth power steering combines with the Corvette's low, road-hugging stance and independent suspension at both ends to provide agile handling, while power brakes at all four corners bring this relatively lightweight car to a stop very quickly. The set of 15" cast aluminum Corvette wheels outfitted with Grand Prix Radial G/T tires provide just the right finishing touch.
Special edition Corvettes are hard to come by to begin with, and the reassuringly solid condition of this 1978 Chevrolet Corvette 25th Anniversary Edition makes for a compelling opportunity. Call today!

We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).

FEES: A documentation fee of $199 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.

AVAILABILITY: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.

CONTACT: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.

INSPECTION: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.

PAYMENT: We require a non-refundable $500 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers.

SHIPPING: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.

DRIVE IT HOME: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.

DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.

VIN VERIFICATION: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.

MILEAGES: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.

CONDITION: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
