Background Story of this 1959 Chevrolet Corvette

Overview of 1959 Chevrolet Corvette For Sale by Owner

If you’re a Corvette fan, a first-generation example is likely very high on your bucket list. Yes, why not own and drive an example from the era that started one of America’s finest automotive legacies? However, today’s 1959 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod LS3 is a little different. It’s been tastefully modified and upgraded with some modern components and most tantalizingly, a modern V8 from a newer Corvette! Having done a mere 2,142 miles after all this meticulous and painstaking work, this fully dialed-in car now resides in Sapphire, North Carolina, ready for a new owner and fresh adventures. Talk to us if you’d like to be that lucky person.

Exterior and Interior

This 1959 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod LS3 has been painted in a smooth shade of silver, really bringing out its iconic and timeless styling. Meanwhile, the wheels have been upgraded to forged black aluminum units, and the whole thing sits on a custom chassis. Since the car is a convertible, there’s a black canvas top for use in poor weather, but the car looks best top-down, when its profile really cuts a fine dash. Meanwhile, a custom side dual-exit exhaust system ensures that the V8’s rumble and roar is really prominent. The Lipstick Red interior features Daytona-style leather bucket seats in the same shade, as well as amenities such as power windows, air conditioning and an aftermarket audio player. The latter is from Kenwood, and offers Bluetooth connectivity, a USB port and an AUX input as well as regular FM radio. Meanwhile, a bevy of Dakota Digital gauges have been added as well, aiding monitoring of the modernized powertrain that lurks within. All this sits neatly within the car’s original dashboard, tastefully combining retro and modern. Even the trunk compartment has reportedly been overhauled.

Engine

A modern 6.2-liter LS3 V8 tuned by Hendrick Motorsports and packing an aftermarket camshaft powers this 1959 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod LS3. Paired with a crisp 5-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive, the renewed powertrain really makes this Corvette a treat to drive. Four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, coilover shocks and vented, cross-drilled zinc-plated rotors also come together for a holistic experience.

1967 Chevrolet Corvette

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$89,999
SOLD

Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.

1977 Chevrolet Corvette

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$20,000
SOLD

Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.

1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$109,999

Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.

1952 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$49,989

The first new Chevy truck to come out since World War II ended, the Advance Design era ran between 1947 and 1955. It replaced the older AK series and was bigger, stronger and sleeker in design. The range started with the 3100 half-tonner, and went on through the one-ton 3800, and into chassis cabs and medium-duty trucks. Now, the Advance Design has found some fame as a restomod platform. That’s what we have here, a 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod from Smithville, Texas. This truck has undergone a full makeover, including a new 396ci V8, a 4-speed automatic gearbox, air conditioning and much more. If you want to rock and roll around in something different to your typical classic car, this is a fine option to consider.
