For Sale at Auction: 1958 Chevrolet Corvette in Scottsdale, Arizona

This custom 1958 Chevrolet Corvette convertible is powered by a new GM LS7 engine 427/570hp with 540 ft/lbs of torque, connected to a 4L75E 4-speed automatic transmission. The powder-coated Art Morrison GT chassis includes compact independent rear suspension, featuring coilovers with adjustable ride height. Stopping power is provided by the Wilwood big-brake package. Fuel is supplied by a GM ZL1 fuel pump in a custom stainless-steel fuel tank built by Rick's Tanks in El Paso, TX. All fuel and transmission lines are Kevlar braided lines. Cooling is provided by a custom DeWitt radiator. Exhaust flows through the custom Ultimate headers finished in a silver ceramic coating. This project started with the paint being stripped off using the plastic-media-blasting system. The body is finished off with Duratec Vinyl Ester primer and topped off with Axalta Boyd Red base coat/clear coat paint. This complete custom includes a full leather interior, featuring reclining custom seats for added head and leg room. The steering column and the lower firewall were moved forward for additional comfort. A Vintage Air system handles interior heating and cooling. The car instrument cluster was upgraded to Dakota HDX analog instruments, which include an electrically actuated hood opener and a Bluetooth AM/FM Wonder Bar radio. It is equipped with power windows and an electric parking brake. For safety, LED headlights and taillights were installed. This Corvette rides on custom Schott wheels, 20-inch rear and 19-inch front, wrapped with Nitto NT555 tires. Over 1,500 hours were invested in this "Little Red Corvette" build, which was completed in November 2022 and driven 200 test miles since completion.
