A four-wheeled embodiment of the American dream, the 1959 Corvette C1 ranks among the most recognisable and coveted silhouettes in American automotive history. With its distinctive dual headlights, sculpted flanks and numerous chrome details, the final year of the first-generation Corvette benefits from particularly refined styling. Paired here with a 283 cubic inch (4.6-litre) V8 and a manual gearbox, this configuration is certainly appealing.
This example presents itself in period red and white livery with a black interior. The seller describes the bodywork, paint and cabin as being in very good condition, with only minor imperfections consistent with the car's age. He also notes that the Corvette is in running order and that its maintenance history is satisfactory. The car will be serviced and inspected before delivery.16424f19-8ff5-4e05-a3eb-6c8608b49e61 bellahcene.jpg219.72 KB
