Description of 1960 Chevrolet Corvette

1960Chevrolet CorvetteNumbers matching 283 Cubic inch V8 engine2 - 4barrelcarburetorsRated at 245HP from the factory4 speed manual transmission73691 MilesRoman Red paint with White covesBlack leather interiorBlack soft top convertibleUp for auction is this beautifully restored 1960 C1 corvette. Fantastic condition inside outside and underneath. Mechanically the car is great also. It fires right up everytime and runs strong.The 4 speed manual is able to be shifted smoothly. Cosmetically this car is the poster of what a C1 corvette should look like. Painted in Roman Red with white coves and black leather. The engine is the more valuable double 4 barrel carb set up with a numbers matching engine. I have pictures of the engine stamp to verify.I am the owner of a garage and I am selling this car for a friend. He is a cardiologist and doesn't have the time to answer questions take phone calls and set up meetings. He has always loved the C1 and about 5 years ago decided to purchase one. He found this one from a Corvette specialist in Arizona and bought it exactly as you see if today. He loves the car but has a few other toys and not a lot of spare time. The car hasn't been driven often since he bought it and decided to send it to a new home to be enjoyed. With all of that being said I do not have any documentation on the car. I do not know when it was restored by whom it was restored or howin-depth of a restoration it was.I believe everything was completed right before he bought it based on the current condition. It looks more like a recent restoration. It isn't Pebble Beach Concourse perfection but i'm sure it could win some local car shows and make one heck of a driver.Hagerty's shows the average price of this car/engine combo to be $62300. We are willing to let it go for less then that so it should make a very good investmentI have a photobucket account with a lot of pictures. Feel free to email me and I can send it to you.
