Offered here is one of the most popular classic sports cars of all time: the Corvette C1 in the two-tone color "Venetian Red" with white flanks. This American cult icon dates from 1957 and flaunts cool classic chrome bumpers and an impressive cooler grill on both the front and rear. The paintwork of this Corvette is in excellent condition, with a deep shine on the chrome. The interior of the car is also beautiful, almost in like-new condition, and even the soft top has been updated. Under the hood houses a 283 CID 4.6 liter V8 engine with optional dual quad carburetors, mated to a 4-speed manual transmission that shifts perfectly. Again and again, this provides a sporty driving experience with the unique sound that only this Corvette produces. This sporty Corvette features include a 283 CID dual quad engine, 4-speed manual transmission, 9-fin cast aluminum valve covers, dual exhaust system, original Spinners wheels with chrome, soft top and hard top. In short, this Corvette is an iconic sight and offers a fantastic driving experience!
