1960 Chevrolet Corvette C1 283/230

Description

The car is finished in Maroon over black leather upholstery and is powered by a 283ci V8 paired with a replacement four-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes a Blackc onvertible soft top, 15″ steel wheels, four-wheel disc brakes, an independent rear suspension, a heater and defroster, and a push-button AM radio. Work in preparation for the sale reportedly included fluid changes, rebuilding the carburetor, and replacing the tires, valve cover gaskets, and thermostat housing gaskets.

The cabin features two bucket seats that have been re-trimmed in black leather and are joined by a color-coordinated dashboard topper and door panels. Appointments include a dash-mounted rearview mirror, a heater and defroster, lap belts, polished sill plates, an analog clock, and a Wonder Bar push-button AM radio. The battery has been relocated to the trunk, which also contains a battery cut-off switch and tender wire, a space-saver spare tire, and an electric windshield washing system.

The three-spoke steering wheel frames a sweeping 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for coolant temperature, amperage, oil pressure, and fuel level. Power is distributed through a four-speed manual transmission and a solid rear axle.
