This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette L-82 Pace Car led the field at the Indianapolis 500 - America's most prestigious race. With just 6,990 believed actual miles, this special edition rocks the official black and silver livery that ignited the crowds at the Brickyard. The iconic design features official Indy 500 graphics and red accent striping that amplify its racing pedigree. The removable T-tops open up the cockpit, while 15-inch polished aluminum wheels wrapped in 255/60R15 tires plant this piece of racing history firmly on the street.
The silver leather cockpit channels pure Indianapolis racing spirit. Racing-inspired bucket seats keep you planted through the corners while the factory console-mounted shifter sits perfectly positioned. The AM/FM 8-track stereo provides the soundtrack, while air conditioning and power steering deliver excellent control. The original clear protective steering wheel cover remains in place - a remarkable detail that verifies this Corvette's preserved condition.
The 350ci L-82 V8 brings race-inspired performance through a 4-barrel carburetor, backed by the reliable TH350 3-speed automatic transmission. Four-wheel power disc brakes deliver track-worthy stopping power. The factory dual exhaust produces a signature Corvette sound. The coil spring front suspension and transverse rear leaf spring setup provide the handling that made these cars famous around the most famous oval in racing.
