1978 Corvette 25th Anniversary / Indy Pace Car.
The 1978 Corvette Pace Car was offered to consumers as an option package – RPO Z78. All Pace Car replicas included new glass T-tops, red-stripe alloy wheels, power windows, a rear window defogger, air conditioning, sports mirrors, a tilt/telescopic steering wheel, a heavy duty battery, an AM/FM stereo equipped with either an eight-track tape player or a CB radio, and power door locks.
The interior of the Corvette Pace Car was directly influenced by Bill Mitchell and this one features a full silver leather upholstery and gray carpeting. For the 1978 Pace Car, Chevrolet introduced a new, thin-shell seat design that featured more lumbar support. Although these seats were originally slated for the 1979 model, the development program was accelerated so that these new seats could be introduced in the 1978 Pace Car package.
The Corvette Indy Pace Car also featured a special front and rear spoiler, both of which were designed to add a more dramatic appearance to the car.
6,502 Pace Cars were produced in 1978 – one for every Chevrolet Dealer in the United States
