Classic Car Overview

4129-PHX 1978 EXCALIBUR SERIES III Exclusivity defines this 1978 Excalibur Series III, one of fewer than 100 built that year. Draped in white fiberglass bodywork, this convertible delivers a level of distinction seldom seen on American roads. The unmistakable side exhaust exits through the fenders, creating a visual signature that separates this machine from ordinary automobiles. Dual front horns announce its arrival while chrome bumpers adorn both ends. A new black vinyl convertible top with crystal-clear plastic windows completes the upper half. Custom 15-inch wire wheels fill each corner, shod with Ironman radials - 225/70R15 front and 235/75R15 rear - while two additional full-size wire wheel spares flank the side fenders for an unmistakable profile. Black bucket seats anchor the luxury-focused interior with a clean layout that puts all controls within easy reach. VDO gauges line the dashboard, including a functional clock that adds a touch of sophistication. A vintage-style AM/FM radio provides the soundtrack for your drives. The custom Excalibur steering wheel mounted on a tilt column allows for perfect positioning, while the floor-mounted shifter rises from a center console for quick gear changes. The rear bench provides comfortable seating for additional passengers. Muscle comes from a massive 454 cubic inch V8 big block Chevy engine fed by a four-barrel Quadrajet carburetor. HEI ignition lights the fire while the TH400 three-speed automatic transmission handles gear selection duties. The modified exhaust system collects into three outlets that exit dramatically through the fenders. Four-wheel power disc brakes provide stopping authority, and the handling benefits from an independent suspension setup with control arms and coil springs up front and independent mono-leaf rear. The drivetrain sits on a modified Corvette platform, giving this classic exceptional road manners. HIGHLIGHTS: 454 V8 Engine 3-Speed Automatic Transmission (TH400) Single 4-Barrel Carburetor Independent Front Suspension with Control Arms and Coil Springs Corvette Rear End Four-Wheel Power Disc Brakes Chrome Alternator White Fiberglass Body with Aluminum Hood Black Vinyl Convertible Top with Plastic Windows 15 Wire Wheels 225/70R15 Front, 235/75R15 Rear Ironman Radials Two Full-Size Spare Wheels on Side Fenders Chrome Front and Rear Bumpers Hood Exhaust Outlets Painted Pinstriping Rear Trunk on Luggage Rack Black Interior with Leather Bucket Seats Front, Bench Seat Rear VDO Gauges Tilt Steering Column Excalibur Steering Wheel Floor Shifter Vintage-Style AM/FM Radio Hardtop Included Original Purchase Documentation Recent Parts Receipts Built on a Corvette platform with big block power, wire wheels, and a look that defined automotive excess, this 1978 Excalibur Series III convertible combines classic styling with American muscle.
