1978 Corvette Parts
The 1978 model marked Corvette’s twenty-fifth year and they rolled out a collection of upgrades this year to celebrate the occasion. The new “fastback” rear end styling featured a larger rear window, creating significantly more luggage space behind the seats.Also, the 1978 interior was redesigned significantly. The speedometer and tachometer were redone in a more square mode, a glove box was added, and new inner door panels featured screwed-on armrests.
One of the most noteworthy aspects of the 1978 Corvette is the “25th Anniversary” emblem, which appears exclusively on this model. What a treasure!
