Debuting in 1953, the Corvette forever cemented Chevrolet as the maker of America's signature sports car. While the eighth generation is something to behold with its mid-engined layout and exotic looks, every single generation before that also carries something special. For example, this 1960 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is special because it comes from the first generation that spawned it all. Why not buy this lovely example that's said to have undergone a partial restoration in 2019 and bears less than 2,000 miles since. At the time, the odometer is said to have read 91,368 before being reset as the car received a new lease of life.
Sporting a lovely Signet Red paint job, this 1960 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible will stand out for miles, regardless of where you park it. Its beautiful lines were penned by none other than the legendary Harley Earl. Riding on modern steel-belted radials installed in 2019, you also receive an extra set of bias-ply tires with the sale. While this 'Vette is a convertible, the current owner discloses that the soft top needs to be changed. Fortunately, a white-painted hardtop is also included in the sale, so you can immediately enjoy your new purchase. The interior of this 1960 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is also red and reported to be completely new, with Al Knoch components. Furthermore, it received a repaint in Roman Red around 2019. The gauges, clock, and radio are all said to have been rebuilt, making this 'Vette one that you can enjoy almost like it left the factory yesterday. Doesn't it look inviting? Imagine yourself in the driver's seat, gently gripping the wheel and steering this beauty down a country road with the V8's grumbly note for company.
Talking of the V8, this 1960 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible has a 283ci unit that pushed out 230 horsepower when new. The current owner reports that the engine bay has been professionally cleaned and repainted, which is why it looks great. It's not all cosmetics, though. Plenty of work has gone into the mechanicals. This includes a new clutch and rebalanced flywheel, a carburetor rebuilt to NCRS specs, jet-coated Ramhorn exhaust manifolds, and a recent radiator recoring. The front, interior, and rear wiring harnesses are all new, there's a new gas tank, and the oil filter was changed in November 2022, along with a lubing of the grease joints. Ready to hit the road, we say!

Chevy’s C5 Corvette was introduced for the 1997 model year as the successor to the wildly popular C4 Corvette. The C5 took many of the C4’s best aspects and further refined them. However, it saw a significant mechanical change in that the gearbox was now sited at the rear of the car, directly driving the rear axle. This set-up optimized weight distribution, making the Corvette an even better track handler than it already was. Facilitating this system was a torque tube that rotated at crankshaft RPM, running down the middle of the car straight to the gearbox. This system resulted in the magic 50-50 weight distribution that keen performance driving enthusiasts crave. Today’s 1999 Chevrolet Corvette Hardtop offers that, plus the rarer hardtop body style, and a manual gearbox, making it a truly appealing car for someone who loves to drive and seeks a future classic. This car has covered just under 125,000 miles and lives in New York.
The C2 or second generation of Chevy Corvette is one of the most iconic in the saga of America’s definitive sports car. Made between 1963 and 1967, it had a relatively short production run in comparison to the C1 and C3 that bookended it, yet nearly 118,000 examples were produced in coupe and convertible forms. The C2 introduced pop-up headlamps, the Stingray name (spelled as Sting Ray), and the iconic boat-tailed styling. Today, we have a 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible from Ladera Ranch, California, for sale with just 75,461 miles on the clock. This car is an excellent choice for a discerning classic car collector. Alternatively, it’s a perfect starter classic for someone who’s just dipping their toes into classic cars and wants something truly American to own and drive.
The Corvette C3 is one of the most attractive cars in the model's eight-generation history. No wonder that so many astronauts were willing to be seen in one of these. During the third generation of the Corvette, they introduced an edition for those who understand that performance is more than just speed; it's about presence, precision, and power. This is none other than the 1982 Chevrolet Corvette Collector's Edition. Corvette likes to describe it as “limited production with unlimited passion.” The example we are showing here bears 18,800 miles on its odometer and is currently located in Laurel, Maryland.
Today, what we know as the Chevrolet Silverado line-up of sturdy full-size pickup trucks can be traced way back to 1960 and Chevy’s C/K Series. Actually, if you really want, you can go back even further, but the proper ancestor is the first-generation C/K. That’s precisely where this 1966 Chevrolet C10 Stepside hails from. These trucks were built in the United States, as well as several other countries including Argentina and Canada. This particular truck is currently stabled in Nevada with just over 44,000 miles to its name. Hence, it’s a great way to dip your feet into the classic car waters, with a machine that’s not just stylish and representative of the Sixties, but something that mobilized countless Americans and helped them reach their goals. We see that two keys plus a brochure are included with the sale of this truck.

Classic car styling blended with modern day aesthetics makes for a machine that takes a lot of your time as you stand back and look at it with awe. The perfect blend is a topic that sees a lot of discussion but the general priority would be to balance out modern day looks while not taking the character of a classic car away. Present today is rare occasion when the perfect blend takes shape and looks like this 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air.
