Description
Welcome to StreetDreamsTexas as we begin our 20th year in the classic and muscle car business. Chevrolet's Corvette has maintained a reputation for strong performance since the introduction of the world-beating small block V8 in 1955. Through all of the changes in federal regulations and consumer preferences, the Corvette has managed to survive and flourish for a remarkable 65 years. Our gorgeous 1961 Corvette beautifully illustrates the styling and performance that have lifted Chevy's sports car to iconic status. Lift the hood and you'll be greeted by the correct (BCN 3756519) 283ci V8 with the correct aluminum intake (CN 3739653), carburetors ( Carter WCFB's, 2613S, 2614S), exhaust manifolds (CN 3749965), and Delco-Remy generator. Stunning in its Roman Red and Ermine White livery, this 'Vette is sporting good paint, trim, chrome, glass, carpet, dash, and upholstery. Open the door, slide into the comfortable bucket seat, and admire the magnificent dash and steering wheel. They really don't make 'em like this anymore. Hit the ignition on the 270hp dual-quad V8, set the original Wonderbar radio, and stir the desirable and sweet-shifting 4-speed. The response from this particular engine/ drivetrain combination is truly impressive, even by modern standards. This beauty runs, stops, turns, and GOES like it should! A beautiful investment that's guaranteed to put a smile on your face. Formerly owned by Don Hood, the automotive stylist responsible for the 1971 Plymouth 'Cuda and numerous other projects. Street Dreams is a full service dealership that can assist with worldwide delivery, insurance, and financing options.
