For Sale at Auction: 1961 Chevrolet Corvette in Scottsdale, Arizona

This 1961 Chevrolet Corvette convertible was treated to a no-expense-spared body-off restoration performed by the early Corvette specialists at Sierra Auto Restoration in Sonoma, CA, at the end of 2006. No part of the car was overlooked, as every component was either replaced or meticulously restored to correct factory specification. The exterior was stripped to the gel coat. then prepped and painted in Fawn Beige Metallic with Ermine White coves; a matching Fawn Beige interior and a new white top were installed to match. All factory stainless steel has been hand-polished and all the chrome was replated. The 283/270hp V8 engine, the original AFB dual 4-barrel carburetors and the 4-speed manual transmission were completely rebuilt to GM specification. The brakes, suspension, ball joints and all other steering components were replaced with new. Likewise, all wiring and the harnesses are brand-new, while the original gauges and the Wonder Bar radio were completely rebuilt. Only 50 test miles have accumulated since the restoration.
