Vehicle Detail

Up for sale is a 1978 Limited Edition Corvette Pace Car sporting the Black/Silver exterior, silver leather interior, glass t-tops, numbers matching L48 350ci V-8 engine, and automatic transmission. Assembled on April 12, 1978 this beauty comes with just 4,900 original miles and is ready to show! The paint on this car appears to be original with very few signs of age and has a brilliant shine. The original Pace Car decals have never been installed and will come in the original box with the car. Glass t-tops are in excellent condition, exterior chrome door handles are also excellent with strong return springs. Weatherstripping on this car is in excellent condition as well. Factory Pace Car-specific slotted aluminum wheels are excellent with no curb rash, and are equipped with the Goodyear GT Radial outlined white letter tires. The interior of this 1978 Corvette Pace Car is in excellent condition including the factory leather seats, steering wheel, center console, dash pad, carpet, original floor mats, armrest pad, gauges, and door panels and is equipped with the factory AM/FM 8-Track radio as well. The a/c system has been retrofitted to R134a. This is a complete numbers matching car and simply put, this is a top-quality automobile! Factory features include glass t-tops, t-top protective covers, slotted aluminum wheels, sport mirrors, rear defrost, air conditioning, tilt-n-telescopic, AM/FM 8-Track, dual rear speakers, automatic transmission, power windows, power locks, power steering, power brakes, power antenna, cruise control, Gymkhana Suspension, and 4,900 Original Miles. Also included with the car will be the original window sticker, dealer copy, EPA fuel economy estimate sticker, dealer invoice, motor carrier delivery receipt, original dealer order form, original invoice when sold new, 14 original "Roll Test" factory inspector flip cards used during the assembly at the factory, owners manual, sun visor information sleeve, Goodyear tire warranty booklet, 1978 maintenance schedule booklet, hazard warning light operation hang tag, fan blower operation paper, original t-top operation stickers, and 1978 Corvette consumer information booklet. The only issue with the car that I am aware of is the tachometer needle moves, but in reverse. I did some checking and it sounds as if it needs a new board assembly that attaches to the back of the tachometer. This is an inexpensive and easy repair, but I hated to disassemble the dash on this fine automobile. Please feel free to call with any questions 217-822-9613. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding. The car is being sold in As/Is condition with no warranty expressed or implied. Winning bidder will be responsible for all transportation fees and arrangements.
