Vehicle Description

๐Ÿ”ฅ FOR SALE: 1961 Chevrolet Corvette – Roman Red Beauty ๐Ÿ”ฅ

A true American icon, reborn with passion and precision.
This 1961 Chevrolet Corvette is the perfect blend of classic style and modern performance, freshly restored to near-perfect condition. Cloaked in stunning Roman Red with iconic White coves, this ‘Vette commands attention wherever it goes. The body is flawless—no waves, no imperfections—just meticulously smoothed fiberglass that gleams from every angle.

Under the hood, a fresh 350 V8 delivers the rumble and performance you crave, with fewer than 500 miles since restoration. This car isn’t just a looker—it drives like a dream. Inside, you’ll find a pristine interior, fully restored to factory specs, with no detail overlooked. The odometer reads 60,000 miles, but this car feels (and looks) like it just rolled off the assembly line.

It comes with two tops:

  • A brand-new white soft top for open-air cruising, and

  • A restored red hard top that matches the body for a complete, show-ready presentation.

What makes the 1961 model so special?

  • It is one of only two model years that has the quad headlamps and the legendary stingray rear end.   While the '62 model year was very similar, '61 was the last year with coves that were not body color.

  • It was the first year for the four taillight design—a signature Corvette styling cue that remains today.

  • It introduced a refined “ducktail” rear deck and a cleaner, more aggressive front end, blending 1950s charm with the sleek lines of the 1960s.

  • It was one of the final Corvettes with dual round headlamps and chrome-heavy trim, giving it that perfect vintage vibe.

  • With lightweight fiberglass bodywork, a throaty V8, and rear-wheel drive, it’s a pure driving experience you won’t forget.

Whether you're looking to turn heads at car shows, take the occasional joyride, or own a piece of American history, this Corvette delivers in every way.

๐Ÿ’ฅ Clean title, garage-kept, and ready to impress.
๐Ÿ’ฅ You won’t find a 1961 Corvette this clean, this dialed-in, and this fun to drive.

**Note: The speedometer cable broke recently (it has been replaced), but the needle fell off of the speedometer as a result and has not yet been replaced.  I am looking for someone who can do this.  If this is not done prior to purchase, I will reduce the price by $1,000 to cover any cost associated with getting this done.  Also, there is a blown fuse for the bluetooth module that has also not yet been replaced.**

Serious inquiries only—this beauty won’t last long.
