In 1978 Chevrolet celebrated the Corvette's 25th anniversary. All ‘78 Corvettes featured silver anniversary nose and fuel door emblems. The fixed-glass fastback benefited both aerodynamics and increased the usable luggage space behind the seats while improving rearward visibility in the bargain. A shade was installed that could be pulled forward to cover the rear compartment to protect cargo and carpet against the unrelenting sun. The tachometer and speedometer were redesigned to match the new “aircraft-styled” center console and gauge cluster first seen the previous year.
