Description of 1955 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible |
1955 Polo White V8 Corvette Roadster Rare, frame-off restored '55! Polo White w/Red interior, 265/195hp, Powerglide automatic transmission. This 1955 Chevrolet Corvette was fully restored in 2006 and holds the National Corvette Restorers Society (NCRS) highest qualification of Top Flight, placing it in the top 3% of judged Corvettes. This 40k-mile example comes from the first year of V8 power for the Corvette and is still equipped with its numbers-matching engine backed by a Powerglide 2-speed automatic transmission. Documentation of its judged performance at the 2006 Quartz Hill event in California is included and shows a score of 4,363 out of 4,510. The 265ci V8 was recently rebuilt and is fitted with correctly date-coded manifolds. This well-documented Corvette has only been driven about 500 miles in the decade since the restoration was completed. It is sold on behalf of the current owner with substantial documentation of the restoration and a clean California title. |
