1960 Chevrolet Corvette 0 Gold Convertible 283 CID V8 Automatic

Chevrolet Corvette 1960 Description

For sale in our Chicago showroom is a shimmering 1960 Chevrolet Corvette. The C-1 Corvettes have always been popular and were completely redesigned in 1958 with quad headlights and were very attractive cars for the period and remain an icon today. One of the very popular designs of the time was the exhaust coming through the rear bumper removing the ugly exhaust tips dangling from the underside of the trunk pan. This beauty is finished in Sierra Gold Metallic which was a popular color on the 1957 Chevrolet, another American icon. The interior has been beautifully restored and finished in pearl white which is a lovely contrast to that glittering gold metallic pain.

Under the hood you will be pleased to see the original, numbers matching 283 Cubic Inch V8 that was rated at 230 Horsepower which is not too shabby for a fiberglass bodied car. Mated to that small block Chevy V8 is the automatic Powerglide transmission which was known for smooth shifting and superior durability. Of the 10,261 units produced in 1960 only 1,563 were produced with the Powerglide transmission. Additional options on this vehicle include the popular Wonderbar Radio, sun shades and a cozy heater for those chilly days.

This car has had years of loving care and recent work including brakes and wheel cylinders, new convertible top, new interior, new exhaust and tune-up. If you have been waiting for that eye-catching first generation Corvette to come around that has a touch of unique flair this may be the one for you.
