Melanson Motors is proud to offer this absolutely gorgeous 1961
Chevrolet Corvette Pro Touring. This is a very special car with
only 1500 since built miles! This Chevrolet was built to be both an
incredible driver and an absolute show piece. It is a complete Pro
Touring build with an original 1961 Corvette body. The body was
painted with high quality base/clear paint and then water sanded
and polished to a high gloss finish. The bumpers were rechromed and
all the stainless trim is brand new! This Vette rides on a McBride
custom chassis with a tubular center section designed to withstand
1000hp. The rear suspension is a triangulated four link. Up front
the car has tubular control arms. Adjustable Aldin coils and shocks
are on all four corners. The LS2 performance crate engine delivers
400 horsepower and has ceramic coated headers. Cooling the engine
is an aluminium radiator custom built by Superior in Michigan. A
3000cfm electric fan moves the air through the radiator. The
exhaust is stainless and ceramic coated front to back! C5 corvette
mufflers and quad exhaust tips give an aggressive look and an
excellent sound! The 4L60e transmission is a brand new performance
built unit. This Corvette is comfortable on the road and handles
like it is on rails! Inside, beautiful custom leather seats and
door panels are fitted. A Dakota Digital Dash has been installed in
the factory gauge cluster. A custom 4 speed automatic shifter sits
neatly in the center console. This Corvette has power windows and
good working Air Conditioning by Vintage Air. The steering wheel is
a Billet Specialties mounted to an Ididit steering column. The
stereo is an AM/FM Classic Autosound with bluetooth capability. USA
740 speakers are tastefully installed in the foot wells. The trunk
is custom upholstered to match the interior. The convertible top is
brand new. Stopping this Corvette is 4 wheel disc brakes with cross
drilled and slotted rotors. The brakes are power assisted with a
chrome brake booster and master cylinder. The car rides on new C5
ZR1 wheels. 18" rear wheels and 17" front. The tires are Achilles
