1959 Chevrolet Corvette C1
- Engine
- 283 cu in (4.6L) V8 with dual Carter four-barrel carburetors, 245 bhp, four-speed manual
- Colour
- Black over red
A 1959 Chevrolet Corvette finished in black over red with a matching black factory hardtop, powered by a 283-cubic-inch V-8 producing 245 horsepower through dual Carter four-barrel carburetors and a four-speed manual gearbox. The car displays fewer than 11,300 odometer miles and presents in largely unrestored, original condition throughout, with no evidence of major refurbishment. Its apparently pampered history makes it a candidate for either sympathetic preservation or comprehensive restoration.
