This 1954 Chevrolet Corvette is for sale in our Louisville KY
showroom. When initially released in 1953 the Corvette was intended
to compete with the smaller European sports cars of that era.
Harley Earl developed the initial design which was sleek smaller 2
seat sports car that looked amazing and caught everyone's
attention, but the price would seem to be a major setback. Having
that said GM would only sell 3640 units in 1954 making these
extremely collectible today. This particular beauty has been
treated to a yearlong frame off restoration with pictures and
receipts included with the sale. Once completed the car was driven
for about 600 miles and put on display at the Corvette museum in
Bowling Green KY for enthusiasts to enjoy. The body was taken off
and stripped down and then painted back to its original white color
which still looks amazing today. With all of the chrome either
replaced or brought back to its original luster it easy to see why
so many caught the Corvette bug. The frame was treated to the same
process which not only insured the structural integrity but gave
the underneath a fresh and clean look. The original, numbers
matching, blue flame six was cleaned up with the original 2 speed
power glide given the same treatment. With the engine and
transmission back together, they were placed back onto that freshly
painted frame. With the body completed it was dropped back onto the
frame giving this 1954 Corvette its new lease on life. The red
interior was the last step with the red really popping against that
white exterior. The tan convertible top is in excellent shape and
shows well but this car was meant to be seen with the top down.
Press the button between the seats and place the top in the hidden
storage area and the 1954 Corvette has the look of a true roadster.
When it is all said and done this Corvette is sure to make the next
owner a very happy person. Options on this 1954 Corvette include a
Manual Convertible Top, Leather Interior, AM Radio, Hubcaps and,
