This 1959 Chevrolet Corvette custom convertible is powered by a
327ci V-8 engine sourced from a 1963 Corvette, paired with a
four-speed manual transmission. A new fuel pump and battery were
installed in 2025. The exhaust has been rerouted to exit behind the
rear tires rather than through the rear bumper. A frame-on
restoration was completed in 2005 in Phoenix, Arizona. Finished in
red with white coves, this Corvette includes a built-in soft-top
and a removable hardtop. The hardtop was repainted during the
restoration and retains its original glass. Interior features
include an AM radio, heater, windshield washers, sunshades and a
glove box located between the seats. Additional items include the
original owner's manual and a replacement tachometer cable. The
seller states the tachometer is not functioning, the fuel gauge is
reported to be inaccurate and the right rear taillight lens has a
small gouge in the red cover. This Corvette has had a single owner
since 2005.
