Here are some information on the 1978 Corvette Indy pace car.
The story of the '78 Indy Pace Car is a surprising one, with some twists and turns. Initially, this model was intended to celebrate the Corvette's Silver Anniversary, with a limited run of 100 two-tone, logo'd cars planned for each of the 25 years of production. Upon finding unexpected extra demand, GM eventually built one for each of the 6,200 Corvette dealerships instead. That tallied up to about 15 percent of the 1978 build total--much more than a "limited production run"--and was not to be confused with another '78 limited-edition Vette model that wore a 25th Anniversary paint scheme.
