For Sale at Auction: 1960 Chevrolet Corvette in Scottsdale, Arizona

Vehicle Description

This 1960 Chevrolet Corvette custom convertible underwent a two-year C1/C7 build, beginning with a complete body-off restoration. The fiberglass body was mounted on a rotisserie and then cleaned, primed and modified with a smoothed cowl, firewall and inner fenders, along with Kindig flush-mount handles and a smooth belly pan. After multiple primer and blocking stages, the car was finished in Meadow Mist Green with Linen White coves and four coats of House of Kolor Show Clear. A new Stage 3 C1/C7 chassis from Chassis Concepts was powder-coated bright silver and equipped with C7 Brembo 14-inch slotted and drilled brakes with 6-piston front and 4-piston rear calipers. The suspension features C7 spindles, upper and lower control arms and a Detroit Speed power rack & pinion. Power comes from a BluePrint LS3 engine producing over 535hp, paired with a Gear Star 4L60E automatic transmission and an Inland Empire aluminum driveshaft. Additional components include a carbon-fiber intake and a Matson polished aluminum radiator with a high-performance fan. The interior is finished in Italian Linen hand-rubbed leather with a smooth custom dash, Dakota Digital gauges, a custom Corvette Dynamics leather-wrapped console, and a control tower housing Vintage Air controls and a Bluetooth audio system. Nu-Relics power windows, Wise Guys leather-wrapped seats with recline and extended travel, and German square-weave wool carpeting complete the cabin. Green-tinted glass complements the exterior, and a tan Al Knoch convertible top is installed over the one-off custom chassis, which was powder-coated bright silver to match the C7 suspension. This one-of-a-kind custom Corvette blends C1 styling with modern C7 performance and comfort.
