Every now and again you meet a collector of motorcars whose passion
runs well beyond the what or how many regarding the contents of
their garage. These unique individuals see their automobile
collection as a series of works of art; keeping them as original as
possible is significantly more important and valuable than a
wonderful looking car that has undergone a frame off restoration
(or two). The exterior patina the perfect interior and consoles
un-marred by the careless tossing of keys, change and other
paraphernalia; the original door moldings in almost perfect
condition; a steering wheel darkened over time by the natural oils
from the drivers hands. Add to these other important features
offered by a vehicle like this such as the original emblems and
badges (that still retain their vibrant colors after all the
years); the original numbers matching mechanical components and
low, original miles. All these things and more separate a good car
from a truly remarkable car.
This a beautiful 1956 Chevrolet Corvette finished in Venetian Red
with a complementary Red interior. This car has the original 265ci
motor with two four barrel carburetors and a period correct 2 speed
automatic transmission. When the current owner acquired the car, it
had been converted to a manual transmission. Looking for
originality, the transmission was converted back to a period
correct 2 speed automatic. The car has traveled 54,300 documented
original miles (with some interesting paperwork) and has won
numerous awards from NCRS including an 87 point Real Deal original
car. The car was stored for close to 25 years and suffered damage
on top of a front fender when a beam fell on it. That area was
patched, repaired and painted at that time. The paint is mostly
original and is very good condition. Time has added an attractive
patina to the exterior finish; the interior is 100% original and
also in excellent condition. The steering wheel, the gauges, seats,
and door panels look fantastic as do the badges etc. Everything
works as it is supposed to and the car comes with two tops. If I
tell you how solid this car is you would doubt my word; if I tell
you how the engine sounds and performs you would likely doubt it
also. However, I rode in the car, I drove over railroad tracks, I
felt the acceleration and noted the lack of rattles. If you are
lucky enough to ride in this car, you will know exactly what I
mean; and there will be no doubt.
This car is a survivor and is being offered at $73,500; this car
will make its new owner proud to drive a true original piece of
American history. If you need any assistance with financing please
