'78 was the silver anniversary of the GM Chevrolet Corvette, recognizing the 25th year of production.

The 1978 model featured a large wraparound back window and a fastback roofline with Goodyear Eagle GT tires. Glass roof panels were a new innovation that year together with 60 series radial tires and a CB radio. Also, all 1978 Corvette models came with special commemorative 25 Anniversary emblems. A four-speed manual gearbox was fitted as standard and a higher output 350 ci. V8 engine was available, although only with an automatic transmission. A total of 46,776 cars were built at a base price of $9,750. Of these, 15,283 cars sported the two-tone Anniversary paint job.
