1978 Chevrolet Corvette
View Description
Chevrolet was invited by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway to pace the 1978 Indianapolis 500, since it was also the Corvette's Silver Anniversary, the Corvette was chosen as the pace car. These Pace Car Replicas were given a different VIN sequence (a 9 replaced a 4 as the eighth digit on the Pace Car models) making it nearly impossible to clone one today. Options for this 78' Corvette Pace Car include: Air Conditioning, Mirrored Glass T-Tops, Cruise Control, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Power Windows, Power Locks, Tilt/Telescopic Wheel, Seat Belts, Anti-Theft System, Leather Interior, Raised White Letter Radial Tires, Aluminum Wheels, Rear Window Defogger/Defroster, Sport Mirrors, Gymkhana Suspension, Dual Rear Speakers, Power Antenna, Car Cover, and Convenience Group Package (ZX2). Sporting the original awesome two-tone black over silver with a red pinstripe, as well as the front and rear spoilers, silver leather interior, and mirrored T-Top glass that this Pace Car Replica rolled off the assembly line with. The only thing missing from the actual pace cars were the holes punched in the back for the flags.
This particular 78' Pace Car Replica still has the original L48 350 CID V8 engine with only 53,100 miles. Peak under the hood and you...
