Gateway Classic Cars of Dallas
1250 Mustang Drive
Grapevine, TX 76051
Gateway Classic Cars of Dallas is proud to offer this aggressive 1978 Chevrolet Corvette, finished in a clean silver exterior over a black interior. Powering this C3 classic is a claimed rebuilt 350 CID V8 engine pushing an estimated 325 horsepower, enhanced with custom head work featuring larger valves, a performance racing camshaft, an Edelbrock intake manifold, a Holley carburetor, and Hooker headers feeding out through a rumble-ready exhaust. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a rebuilt Turbo 350 automatic transmission fitted with an upgraded stall converter for sharp off-the-line launch capabilities.
Under the hood, maintenance and cooling upgrades include a new water pump, top and bottom radiator hoses, a fresh 195-degree thermostat, a new radiator cap, replaced heater hoses, and a newly added temperature gauge to keep tabs on vital stats. Stopping power has been completely refreshed thanks to a rebuilt rear disc brake system, new front brake pads, and a brand-new brake master cylinder alongside a fresh power brake booster. The exterior sits aggressively on black steel wheels wrapped in classic Corvette white-letter tires, complemented by glass T-tops overhead. Inside, the cabin features black vinyl bucket seats, power windows, tilt/telescopic steering wheel column, and an aftermarket AM/FM radio, along with a custom wood-grain accented dash. Please note that the heater and A/C systems are currently non-functional. Whether you're looking for a sharp weekend cruiser or an iconic C3 muscle car platform ready for the street, this 1978 Corvette delivers performance and style in equal measure.
