We now have this remarkable 1958 First Generation, Solid Axle Corvette for sale. Only over 9,100 1958 Corvettes were made, and only a fraction of those still remain, especially in this condition and originality. This red on red two top beauty has its original 283/230hp motor and 4 speed manual transmission. It has the optional courtesy lights, the original working AM Wonderbar radio, the correct wide white wall tires on the original rims, and the red original date coded hardtop with a new date code correct white soft top. The car was frame off restored and repainted with lacquer paint just over 10 years ago but is still very fresh having been used sparingly (about 3,000 miles) during that time and stored in climate controlled conditions. It maintains most of its original components which is rare among these first generation Corvettes today. It received an NCRS Second Flight as well. A new original style clutch was installed and the original flywheel resurfaced just over two years ago and has seen less than 150 miles of use in that time. The car runs and drives great, and it is a real joy to drive. It turns heads everywhere it goes, and It is ready to go. The 1958 Corvettes had many unique one year only styling cues including the louvered hood and the rear trunk spears. They remain very desirable among collectors and investors and are becoming harder to find thus driving the prices up. Hurry before this one ends up in someone else’s garage or collection. Originally offered at $79,900. Now offered at $74,900.
