Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Chicago is proud to present this low-mileage 1978 Chevrolet Corvette. 1978 was a special year for the Corvette, as it was not only the 25th anniversary of the now legendary sports car, but it was also selected as the pace car. A special two-tone Black and Silver paint job was laid across the sweeping, muscular lines separated by a bold red stripe. While in factory form, they were much more to look at than they were to drive, this 27k mile beauty has been gone through to really step up performance to match the looks. The L-82 has seen the addition of a roller camshaft from Comp Cams, ceramic-coated headers into a full stainless-steel exhaust, a set of cylinder hears from air Flow Research, and the transmission was upgraded from the standard 3-speed automatic to a 4-speed automatic 700R4. Now with a healthy, thumpin' V8, this Corvette is how it should have come from the factory! Keen eyes may notice that the "Pace Car" decals are not on the car currently. They are included with the vehicle in the original boxes from GM! This low-mileage Corvette is set up to drive, and will likely keep its value for a long time to come. Jump into the drivers seat and enjoy the thumping exhaust all the way home!

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing. No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.
When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.
Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.
To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.
With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
