Description

Please visit www.Survivor-Cars.com for additional photos, information, and a video. This vehicle is available for viewing by appointment only. Please call us to schedule an appointment.
Only 6,502 Indianapolis 500 Pace Car Corvettes were produced in 1978, and this one is a highly optioned, incredibly clean example.
Options include: L82 engine, power windows, power locks, tilt steering, AM/FM/CB radio, mirrored t-tops, vinyl/cloth interior, alloy wheels, radial tires, power steering, A/C, and 4-wheel power disc brakes.
The L82 engine was rated at 220 horsepower and is backed by a 3-speed automatic transmission. Only 7,138 out of 46,776 Corvettes received the CB from the factory, making this rare in a couple ways.
The Pace Car package included Black over Silver paint with Red pinstripe, Indianapolis 500 Pace Car decals, and a special VIN sequence, which had never been done before by Chevrolet.
1978 was also the 25th Anniversary for the Corvette, making this a very special year and car. It would be a great addition to any collection of Pace Cars, Corvettes, or rare classic cars. This vehicle also has the cloth inserts on the door panels and seats, which is a rarely seen option.
