    I still remember the day my dad pulled into the driveway with this car in the early 80s, except his has black interior, but this exact color, just all silver. The deepest sounding idle i have ever heard to the day still. He still has also :)

    That engine bay is so crisp and clean seriously!. Love the exterior color but not a fan of the interior color although it is just as clean in my opinion. It needs a little TLC but overall a good buy.. Thanks for sharing as always Nick and I hope/pray that all is well with you and the entire Maple Motors family and everyone here. 🙏🙏

    All 1978 Corvettes were 25th Anniversary but they made a special 25th Anniversary which is 2 tone and has nice striping on the hood.

    For a 1978 Corvette it's in excellent condition. Beautiful silver paint with red interior is my favorite combination. The engine with the chrome valve covers look really nice. This car won't be on your
    parking lot long at that price.

    The 25th Anniversary car. To me, this would be nice to have for any C3 Corvette.

    Smooth, quiet power. I'll bet it feels like driving on silk. After seeing the under shots, I can say 'Low Ride Errr'. Haha.

    So many of these Corvettes are so under sold it drives me nuts. For the cares that where built over seas could not hold a candle to what we had in those days for being something on the street at a good cost. So under valued and it is a shame.

    Is it just me or does it sound like a freight train ever time you have that camera under any vehicle? Great video, nice Vette. Thanks Nick

    Trailing arm bushings are shot. That’s why it’s pulling from side to side when you’re in and out of the gas.

    I’ve never saw so many cars that the horns don’t blow, It’s like that old bull my neighbor had. two horns and neither one would blow

    All of the 78 Vettes had the 25th anniversay badges.. this is NOT however, a 25th Anniversary special package car. I had a 2004 40th Anniversary package Mustang I bought new, but all of the 2004 Mustangs had the badges...

    • @thud9797
      @thud9797 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It wasn't a special packaged car, it was just a paint job that required the aluminum wheels and dual sport mirrors.

  • @dennismoreau7408
    @dennismoreau7408 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This is a very nice 78corvette in silver. But it is not a "silver anniversary edition" which is a two tone dk and light silver, and it would also have a silver(lt grey) interior.

    • @thud9797
      @thud9797 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No special edition, it was an optional paint job and interior colors of black, red, and blue were also available.

    @stevo5459 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Do you guys still have this? Looking for one of these! Hopefully sell the 2015 HD Road glide special this week regrettably, but a nice old Vette will make up for it (unless y’all take trades!)

    C threes on the rear have a butterfly spring. That's probably the cause of your twitching. I have 4 C threes, and they all do that.Sway bar links could also cause this

    It's not the silver anniverary edition, it had 2 tone paint, in 78 all corvettes had the "25th anniversary" badge on the nose.

    • @j-randall2972
      @j-randall2972 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You are correct! My brother has a 1978 Silver Anniversary Corvette. It has 2 tone paint. Lower body is dark grey.

    • @thud9797

    Not a Silver Anniversary. Lacks the proper paint scheme. Know because I owned one.

    • @thud9797
      @thud9797 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Still a Silver Anniversary whether it has the optional Silver Anniversary paint or not. On the 1978 brochure on the cover the first thing it says..
      1953-1978
      Chevrolet Presents The Silver Anniversary Corvette.
      And all through the brochure it mentions Silver Anniversary and 25th Anniversary and not a word about needing the Anniversary paint to be a Silver Anniversary. It's just a paint job and all cars got the Anniversary emblems anyway.

    Fix the ac before you try and sell a car. Would make all the difference. I would take a pass on it just because of this.
