There was a lot to celebrate in '78 when it came to the Corvette. It marked the silver anniversary of the beloved American sports car. Not only was the car available with 25th anniversary editions, but it also paced the Indy 500! The new fastback-look increased luggage space, improved driver visibility and updated the styling profile. If you need to get after repairs to your classic 'Vette, this is the guide to make it happen.

Not to be outdone, the Camaro received a nice makeover in 1978. After years of big aluminum bumpers, this year rolled-out all new urethane front and rear fascia featuring body color. These cars looked good when new and still look good today. Be sure to keep yours in top shop by using the factory specs and instructions in this great guide.

Whichever sweet car you have from the huge list above, this is the best guide to have for service and repair.
