For Sale: 1958 Chevrolet Corvette in O'Fallon, Illinois

Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is excited to offer this beautiful 1958 Chevrolet Corvette for sale. This car has been driven in the last two "Cruisin' the Coast" events (October 2022 and 2023), so it's not a trailer queen. Under the hood is a peppy 283 CID V8, which with its dual quad setup, has plenty of get up and go, and its 4-speed manual transmission helps with taking advantage of everything the 283 has to offer. The paint scheme is a very attractive Regal Turquoise with Snowcrest White coves, which is one that isn't often seen (only about 510 Corvettes had that color scheme in 1958). The chrome on this car gleams in the sunlight, really helping the paint pop, too. The interior has been given a carpet upgrade from its original loop fabric to a more modern, and very classy, black woven material. The very dark blue synthetic leather seats are in great shape, and match the headliner and dash pad, while the black dash shines like the black lacquer finish one would find on the finest Steinway. On those hot "top up" weather days, the occupants will be grateful for the addition of cold-blowing A/C; while the rest of the time, they're more likely to be running around with the hard top off and convertible top stowed, enjoying the wind in their hair. A modern "retro style" AM/FM head unit has been installed for the occupants' musical enjoyment (when they're not enjoying the music coming from under the hood). This little beast rids on a set of wide whitewall radial tires, and hiding behind the front wheels are disc brakes, so this car rides and handles better than it did new. This is the kind of classic Corvette that you'll want to own and drive, so don't let it get away!
