For Sale: 1959 Chevrolet Corvette in O'Fallon, Illinois

Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this iconic 1959 Chevrolet Corvette. The body lines and unique styling of the C1 Corvettes are what dreams are made of. When the 1959 Corvette debuted, Zora Duntov, Godfather of the Corvette, stated that in order for the Corvette to sell, "..it must first go." Looks were one thing, but the car had to perform. (Sports Cars Illustrated, March 1959). The white exterior combined with blue interior and matching coves is timeless and eye-catching. However, the healthy 327ci powerplant and side exhaust pipes leave no doubt this C1 meets the criteria set forth by Mr. Duntov...and goes! And just in case you didn't know, nothing sounds like a Corvette with side pipes! The wire wheels and rear wide body treatment create a '70s vibe that just works for this car. If you're an introvert, this may not be the 'Vette for you because this one will get you noticed for sure.
