1978 Chevrolet Corvette T-Top Coupe Description

1978 Corvette T-TOP Coupe. This car is a unmolested survivor. Has original paint and it is numbers matching. A fresh interior (Factory correct leather seats and complete interior carpet with extra sound deadening and heat shield) was ordered from Corvette Central and professionally installed by Riggs Brothers of Naperville, Illinois. Rear leaf spring replaced with fiber glass unit, fresh shocks, mufflers, The original carburetor was rebuilt, a new four core radiator, clutch fan, Kenwood Stereo all were professionally installed. A new heavy duty battery is two years old. I had maximum width BF Goodrich T/A Radials installed and they look almost new. Car is a rare Corvette Light Blue with dark blue interior. Less than 2000 were produced. This car also has the factory spoiler, very rare on non-pace cars. T-Top storage bags are in great shape. Dependable driver, does not over heat and drives smoothly. Factory air is installed but does not work. All parts are there. Transmission shifts great and the engine starts on a bump of the key once it has warmed up. I bought new muscle car recently, the garage is full and "Old Blue" needs a new home. She has always been garage kept and spoiled since I have owned her. I bought her from my brother who spoiled her as well. Between my brother and I she has been in the family for 20 years. The owners manual is still in the car. I am the fourth owner. Tons of receipts for work that has been professionally performed on her. Included in the sell is what I believe to be the original set of keys (with several other sets included) and the owners manual. She is a beauty and always draws attention where ever she goes.
An item that has been asked and I failed to put in the AD, There are NO, ZERO, rust issues with this car. It came from California and then went to Texas. From Texas it went to Tulsa. I have had her for over seven years and it has never seen snow or ice. In those seven years she has always been garaged. Never spent the night outside, ever. This is a rust free vehicle.
