General state
In excellent condition, both aesthetically and mechanically, this Corvette C1 far exceeds the standard one would expect for a vehicle that left the factory in 1958.
The bright red, immaculate and original interior complements a rare black body with grey side panels (only 400 were made), which is also flawless. A discreet modern car radio, with a vintage look, has been fitted.
Fed by a large four-barrel carburettor and mated to a four-speed manual gearbox, its 283ci (4.6L) small-block V8 delivers 270 chevaux with a characteristic purr. The running gear and road holding are considered sound, with no vibrations or unwanted noise.
🛞 Four 6.70 x 15 whitewall tyres, in keeping with the original specification (option 290B mentioned on the original invoice).
