Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this iconic 1959 Chevrolet
Corvette! This impressive vehicle comes in a brilliant red and
white paint job complemented by a spotless black interior. Powering
the Corvette is a recently built 383 cubic inch V8 motor mated to a
rebuilt manual transmission. Upgrades to the 383 include a Sniper
EFI fuel injection system, upgraded cam, roller rockers, aluminum
heads, full stainless steal exhaust, Eagle crank, Eagle rods,
upgraded radiator and more. Additionally, this vehicle is believed
to have been a factory fuel-injected example. Features of the
Corvette include power steering, 4 wheel disc brakes, functioning
heat, radio and more. An initial restoration was completed in the
mid-80s with a more recent refresh believed to have been completed
within the past 2 years. This vehicle comes to us out of a very
extensive automobile collection. As such it has always been
properly maintained and stored. So, if you're in the market for not
only a gorgeous classic Corvette but one that is incredibly
driver-friendly, this is the vehicle for you. Please call or email
us today for more information.
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. This
generation was often referred to as the "solid-axle" models (the
independent rear suspension was not introduced until the second
generation). Three hundred hand-built polo white Corvette
convertibles were produced for the 1953 model year. The 1959-60
model years had few changes except a decreased amount of body
chrome and more powerful engine offerings.
