1978 Corvette 25thAnniversary Edition Silver on Silver 350ci/Auto
This car is a nicely reconditioned 25thanniversary edition Corvette. I would call this a nice driver class car because it is not perfect but only has minor imperfections! This is the type of car that is a pleasure to drive and shows really nice but at the same time your not afraid to drive it!
I purchased the car from Ontario Canada however it is originally a USA car and I have a clear title for the car from the state of Minnesotaso this an easy one to export back to the USA.
When I purchased the car it was in basically original 1978 Condition aside from having new paint at some point in it’s life and the wheels were also reconditioned at that time. So the exterior of the car showed very well and still does! The interior was in tough shape and also much of the mechanical was in need of repair brakes, steering, leaks etc. I have outline the condition of the car in detail below.
