Classic Car Overview

1978 Chevy Corvette Silver Anniversary Family heirloom. Between my grandfather, father, and now myself we have had the Corvette since the early 80s. Unfortunately, life circumstances have changed and its time for me to move on. This car deserves someone with the time and resources to make her great.
