Details About Our C1 Corvette For Sale:
Available at the St. Louis Car Museum is a stunning, 1960 Chevrolet
Corvette Convertible finished in Honduras Maroon, complemented by
Ermine White Coves, and a Black Vinyl interior with a matching
Black convertible soft top! This classic Corvette is powered by its
number's matching CU-code 283ci/270 horsepower V8 engine mated to a
4-speed Borg Warner T10 manual transmission and AP-code 4.11
Posi-Traction rear axle, this beautifully tuned Corvette has no
trouble navigating the open road! Options include an auxiliary
removable hardtop, heat/defrost, fully polished wheel covers, newer
Goodyear Custom Super Cushion wide whitewall radial tires measuring
205/75R15, original pushbutton Wonderbar AM radio, carpeted floor
mats, and added period seatbelts.
This vehicle comes from recent Missouri ownership where it was
maintained and was enjoyed by a Corvette enthusiast since August
2020. Seen here is a truly virtually untouched, all-original
Corvette that has been driven as a weekend cruiser on fair weather
days during the summer months (adding approximately 1500 miles to
the odometer.) In 2023, the original paint was professionally
stripped with the body prepped from a complete respray in its
factory-appointed color (vehicle driven only 100 miles since
repaint.) The results are splendid now sporting a protective base
coat/ clear coat finish! It is exceptionally original under the
hood with Carter AFB carburetors, correct 60C-dated Harrison
radiator, factory style hoses/tower clamps, date-correct Delco-Remy
generator, correct distributor, 7-finned aluminum valve covers,
clutch fan assembly, etc. for a proper, factory stock presentation.
A solid classic Corvette that starts up remarkably well and hits
the road with confidence!
The exterior restoration was further complimented with a brand new
black soft top and window weather seals upon arrival to the St
Louis Car Museum in September 2024, but otherwise remains original
inside including the brightwork and bumpers, all of which remain in
very fine condition. We also provided an engine service with fresh
oil & filter. If you are looking for a high-quality driver that
turns heads, and performs like it should, with show-worthy NCRS
scoring attributes, then this Corvette is for you! A terrific
Corvette in all respects! Contact Jon Faust at (314)993-1330 to
schedule a test drive.
History of Chevrolet's C1 Corvette:
The Corvette exterior appearance stayed the same for 1960 with the
heavy teeth in the grill along with it being the final year for the
formed taillights in the body, and chrome forward headlight bezels.
An aluminum radiator with top tanks was introduced this year to aid
in better engine cooling. It was available for the carbureted 270hp
and 290hp fuel-injected engines only. For many collectors and
enthusiasts, it's the two-tone paint scheme that highlights these
incredible body lines that make them so desirable!
