Vehicle Description
Stunning Triple Black 1959 Corvette, 2 top roadster with white
coves and major curb appeal. Powered by a great running and
highly detailed 283 c.i. engine, shifted by a 4- speed manual
transmission. It's hard to top the gorgeous body lines of a black
Corvette C1 roadster.
Extremely well cared for car that has been meticulously maintained
and we preserved over the years. The paint was done a few years ago
and has just been wet sanded and buffed to a deep mirror finish
shine. Nothing looks better on a beautiful black Corvette than
shiny chrome and this car has
lots of it.
Mostly very nice original chrome and stainless trim which is a
testament to the care it has received throughout its life. Great
panel fit
and finish with doors that open and close easily. The interior has
just been
refurbished with new seat upholstery, new door panels, new
carpeting, new sill plates, new kick panels and refurbished factory
steering wheel with new horn center.
The brand new convertible top
is black and has just been professionally installed for an
excellent fit. Rolling on wide whitewall tires and correct factory
spinner hubcaps for timeless good looks.

Chevrolet Corvette, known colloquially as the Vette or Chevy
Corvette, is a sports car manufactured by Chevrolet. The car has
been produced through seven generations. The first model, a
convertible, was introduced at the GM Motorama in 1953 as a concept
show car. Myron Scott is credited for naming the car after the type
of small, maneuverable warship called a corvette. Originally built
in Flint, Michigan and St. Louis, Missouri, since 1981, the
Corvette has been manufactured in Bowling Green, Kentucky and is
the official sports car of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. While
always being an automobile known for speed and performance
throughout its history, the Corvette has evolved throughout the
generations into becoming the widely regarded although never
officially declared flagship model of the Chevrolet car brand.""The
first generation of Corvette was introduced late in the 1953 model
year. Originally designed as a show car for the 1953 Motorama
display at the New York Auto Show, it generated enough interest to
induce GM to make a production version to sell to the public. First
production was on June 30, 1953.""The 1959-1960 model years had few
changes except a decreased amount of body chrome and more powerful
engine offerings."American Dream Machines
