1978 Chevrolet Corvette * 59,481 Original Miles * Factory 4-Speed * A/C * Glass T-Tops There are plenty of C3 Corvettes on the market-but very few combine low original mileage, a desirable factory 4-speed manual transmission, long-term ownership, and meticulous maintenance like this one. Finished in timeless black over a beautiful white interior, this Corvette has traveled just 59,481 original miles and has been owned by the same enthusiast since 2011. During his ownership, the car has been religiously maintained, with reliability and drivability always taking priority. This is the kind of Corvette you buy because you want to drive it, not spend your weekends working on it. Highlights Include: * Factory 4-speed manual transmission - the enthusiast's choice and far less common than the automatic. * Factory air conditioning. * Desirable glass T-Tops. * Just 59,481 original miles. * Same owner since 2011. Recent Maintenance & Upgrades * Brand-new copper radiator for superior cooling and reliability. * Rear trailing arms professionally rebuilt, giving the car a tight, solid ride. * Exhaust system and mufflers are in excellent condition. * Upgraded HEI distributor with built-in coil and premium ignition wires for improved performance and dependability. * Upgraded Pioneer stereo for modern sound while maintaining the classic driving experience.
