 Up For Sale is a 1978 Corvette Silver Anniversary Coupe with 28350 original miles.  It came equipped with the larger 220 HP L82 motor Automatic transmission, power windows, power brakes , power steering, tilt and telescoping wheel, AM/FM 8 track, power antenna, T Tops, Blue cloth and leather interior. The 4 barrel carburetor was rebuilt about 3 1/2 years ago and the transmission was rebuilt 1 1/2 years ago. The motor runs great. The A/C has been changed over to R134 and blows cold. The car is 100% original like it came off the assembly line except for the Hooker header side pipes that give the car a great sound. I am the 4th owner and I have had the car for 6 years. The car turns heads and get thumbs up every time I take it out. The PO had replaced all of the brake calipers and pads just prior to me buying it. The car does not drip oil or smoke and is in excellent condition for a car of it's age. It has 3 minor things that need attention. 1) the drivers window regulator is missing a track wheel on the back side making the window loose when going up and down and goes up about 1/4" to high in the back. I assume the regulator needs to be replaced. 2) The solenoid that kicks up the idle when the A/C is turned on needs to be adjusted. I replaced the solenoid but can't get it adjusted ( does not affect the a/c). 3) the clock doesn't work. The original paint is in great shape with no major scratched of dings and shines really nice, the tape stripe between the silver and gray has one scuff mark on the front passenger corner(see pic). I am an individual not a dealer that is trying to sell this car. I have described it to the best of my ability. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. All reasonable offers will be considered.


The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to stop this auction at any time.

Sinkhole Opens Up In National Corvette Museum, Swallows Eight Cars

Wed, Feb 12 2014

More cars are being moved inside the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Ky. to avoid falling down the same sinkhole that swallowed eight classic sports cars early this morning, Autoblog reported. Museum officials said the hole was discovered when motion sensors activated around 5:45 a.m. The rescue mission can be viewed on the museum's live feed cameras, which weren't working after the sinkhole emerged. A 1993 ZR-1 Spyder and a 2009 ZR1 "Blue Devil," both on loan from General Motors, were among the cars that fell into the sinkhole. The museum owned the other affected Corvettes, which included a 1963 Corvette, a 1984 PPG Pace Car and the 1 millionth Corvette ever produced. The state of the cars at the bottom of the hole isn't known, but trial lawyer and sinkhole expert Ted Corless said the cars may be a total loss for the museum and GM. "Most states, including Kentucky, exclude damage caused by sinkhole activity," he said. "There will be, in all likelihood, a claim made, but a lot of policies would specifically exclude these kinds of damages." Corless has 15 years experience dealing with sinkholes. He said that typically neither the building, nor the cars themselves are protected under their insurance policies. "I would have to say, more likely then not, they're going to have an uninsured loss measured in the hundreds of thousands of dollars." The museum is closed Wednesday while a structural engineer assesses the damage.
