Car history:
INCREDIBLE 1978 CORVETTE COUPE, 350 • AUTOMATIC • A/C • POWER STEERING, WINDOWS, BRAKES • BOTH GLASS & SOLID T-TOP SETS One of the best cared for vintage Corvettes around with the performance & paperwork to prove it. I am the 3rd owner. The 2 previous owners were older gentlemen who took serious pride in this vette. During my ownership of this vette, I've added top performance parts, had them professionally installed, and had all maintenance completed by Corvette Mike in Anaheim, CA, Tiger Automotive in La Habra, CA and Cannon's Muffler in La Habra, CA. If you want a Corvette that can smoke tires across an intersection, chirp the tires when hitting 2nd, and fly by just about anything on freeways, all while emanating 70's cool in a sleek black finish, then this is the C3 for you. It sits quiet and idles strong... but when you step on the accelerator the Corvette Central exhaust system with headers and Edelbrock mufflers with custom straight out tail pipes let out a massive rumble that instantly lets everyone know there's no reason to even try beating you. Once the Edelbrock Performer carburetor and intake manifold start inhaling oxygen... hold on !! If you want to cruise by day or night, you'll have both the original black body matching t-tops or new mirror glass t-tops to choose from, both sets are in perfect condition and even have a set of leather covers. WHAT'S NEW OR UPGRADED: • ENGINE REBUILT @ 104,000 MILES. BLUEPRINTED & BALANCED BY DH AUTOMOTIVE IN OHIO- ONLY 5,000 MILES SINCE • TRANSMISSION REBUILT @ 104,000 MILES WITH SHIFT KIT- ONLY 5,000 MILES SINCE • CORVETTE CENTRAL STAINLESS EXHAUST SYSTEM WITH HEADERS • EDELBROCK MUFFLERS & CUSTOM STRAIGHT TAIL PIPES • EDELBROCK AVS THUNDER 4 BARREL 800 CFM CARBURETOR ELECTRIC CHOKE • EDELBROCK PERFORMER EPS ENDURASHINE INTAKE MANIFOLD • EDELBOCK HIGH FLOW BILLET FUEL FILTER & LINES • SPARK PLUG WIRES SET • STAINLESS HOSE SHEATHING • NEW MASTER CYLINDER & REAR CALIPERS • A/C CONVERTED TO R-134 but retains original r-12 sticker • SPEEDOMETER CABLE • DIFFERENTIAL GEARS SERVICED • INTERIOR LIGHTS • STUBBY SPIKE ANTENNA WHAT NEEDS TO BE FINISHED: • TACH & CLOCK WORK INTERMITTENTLY- Corvette Mike says the tach filter is the culprit, needs replacing. don't worry i haven't redlined the vette... ever !! the shift kit works too well to allow it.. and the engine runs perfect. i haven't seen a working clock yet on these older vettes, so if you want to waste your time replacing the clock, it's your choice once you win it. • PAINT IS 90%- some touch up spots from road flecks, absolutely no accidents. clear coat very shiny. rear corvette letters not installed MORE DETAILS: The collected paperwork from the owners includes far more details on the history of this vette and will be interesting for you to read through. It's all contained in a 3" ring binder with the original owners manual. You'll be able to trace the engine rebuild, and see every part which DH Automotive used, the power steering work and alignment which the previous owner was a total stickler about, and the upkeep maintenance which the original owner had done as well. The interior is spotless. The retractable rear storage area shade works perfectly. The carpet is fading slightly in the rear storage area. The leather seats are about 90%. The power windows, power steering, power brakes, and air conditioning all work as they should. The tires only have a few thousand miles on them. Wipers and headlights work as they should. Had one bright headlight replaced 2 weeks ago at Corvette Mike, and that time I decided to have the brakes serviced, so you'll see the new master cylinder in some of the photos which were taken less than a week ago. The idea was to keep the outside looks as original as possible, while adding modern performance under the hood, so I'm letting the winning bidder decide to upgrade the stereo and tint the windows if you want to. I added the short antenna mainly because I keep the vette covered and garaged, and it's just easier to deal with the cover. It adds a mean detail to the looks also. I believe the vette was repainted solid black by the previous owner, but was originally the 25th anniversary dual silver/black color. The door data plate paint code is 13U 07M and the interior trim code is 192 which is matching for the black leather. All the recent repairs by Corvette Mike and Tiger Automotive are under warranty. They have about 5 to 11 months under their 1 year warranty depending on when I had the work done. Chad Hales, my regular mechanic at Corvette Mike went through this vette and determined that there are no other mechanical issues than the tach and clock as I mentioned above. I have all the original intake parts... manifold, quadrajet carburetor, cool air intake duct, spare tire and carrier, and these will go to the winner if you want them. I will help the winning bidder set up shipping, but it's your responsibility to pay for it. I've used a local shipper to do all my ebay moves, and they've been top notch.

Simple... I need the money for other responsibilities. It's a luxury to have an extra car to play around with, but times are tough, and it's a heart breaker for me to let this vette go. The old saying is totally accurate here- My loss is your gain on this one.
