Vehicle Description
One of the earliest 327 corvettes known to exist production number
#238, built on August 23rd, 1961. Numbers Matching 300HP 327 Engine
Nicely Restored Roman Red Exterior Very Nice Black interior The
steel of the convertible carriage is nice and tight boasts a white
vinyl top. Adding to the unique rarity is the optional power window
(3% had power windows) feature (order code 426) making this quite a
find. The 3269 AFB carb sporting the super early 1466 code and the
correct August 1961 dating pairs it to the very early VIN build
date. This car's 1466 logo on the carb has been presented to the
NCRS as such is extremely rare & manual had as no pic as no pic had
existed until this one was sent in. The numbers matching engine pad
on the engine shows it to be a RD coded 300HP car. The vintage, the
history and the condition make this an exceptional example of the
car that caused the Corvette to gain its race worthy heritage, now
firmly established but handed down from the 327 engine that changed
the brand in the summer of 1961. Don't pass this one up if this is
your dream car. It is a very Nice Texas Car with the bottom side is
as nice as the top. Prior owner was a collector who spent a great
deal of money and effort putting this through a very expensive and
extensive restoration. Not a car with photographic edits to heavily
try to sell the car.
