The Corvette is the definition of the American sports car. When it was introduced in 1953, the recipe was simple: a fun, good-looking 2-seater with a fiberglass body. However, due to quality concerns, unpopular drivetrain options, and a lack of options, sales figures were low. Over the next few years, Chevrolet would introduce a V8 engine and more options. Still, it wasn’t until 1957 that its popularity saw a massive increase (which could be attributed to the increase in engine capacity to 283ci and the introduction of a 4-speed manual transmission). Over the years, the C1 Corvette saw various visual and mechanical changes. By 1961, they had quad headlamps, more chrome, a fuel injection option, and a boat tail rear with twin tail lights. The latter appears in Corvettes even today.
1961 also marked the final year of two-tone paintwork on a Vette till 1978. This car is mainly red with white coves. The hard top is red to match the primary body color, and the soft top is white, standing out beautifully against the red body and matching the coves. The picture is completed by the thick whitewall tires that were fitted to the car. The current owner has been in possession of this car for roughly 14 years and believes that it was repainted during a restoration done 5-7 years before that. The black interior gives this car a very vintage sports car appearance and helps all the chrome and aluminum switches and panels stand out. The odometer reads just under 68,000 miles. In addition to the choice of tops, this car also comes with two sets of keys.
Engine displacement remained at 283ci in 1961, but power output was increased for the fuel-injected models (such as this one). This engine and the 4-speed manual transmission that it’s mated to make it a fun car to drive. Like the whitewall tires, the drum brakes are also very characteristically '50s. The engine is reported by the current owner as being numbers matching (however there is no documentation for this). The current owner does state, however, that the transmission is not numbers matching. There’s no AC in this car, but it does have a Wonderbar radio, and both the lights and the wipers are reported to be functioning.

Chevy’s C8 or eighth-generation Corvette debuted in 2020 with a new mid-engined design, supercar-inspired looks and a new level of performance, overall. The new LT2 small-block V8 makes 490hp and 465lb-ft in stock form, which is a mild increase over the C7 on paper, but translates to vastly improved acceleration and drivability as a result of tuning and the new 8-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox which the C8 comes with. But what if you want to make that naturally aspirated unit into a forced induction beast? Well, you get something like this 570-horsepower 2022 Chevrolet Corvette 1LT. Tuned by Elited South Tuning and fitted with a Huron twin-turbo kit, this rear-wheel drive beast could be yours. It’s up for grabs in Greer, South Carolina with under 5,000 miles on the clock. The original window sticker, two keys and owner’s manual are included with the sale as well.
The first generation of Chevy’s popular Corvette sports car and grand tourer was revealed to the public in 1953. Called the C1, it ran until 1962, and sold just over 69,000 units. Today, finding a C1 is a little tough, but not impossible. You’ll find pristinely-kept, bone-stock examples, fixer-uppers, daily runners and restomods, like this Texas-based 1959 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod. This car packs a 6.2-liter naturally aspirated LT1 from a later Corvette, as well as aftermarket Z06-style wheels and a 4L60E 4-speed autobox. These, plus many other refinements make this a classic Corvette that you can daily drive with comfort and confidence.
The Chevrolet Corvette has been on the map for offering the world some of the most iconic classics. "America's sports car" refers almost universally to this unmistakable car. In the modern day and age, Chevrolet engineers aspire to keep this title alive by creating supercar-level performance vehicles for a relatively accessible price point. What we have here is a 2022 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray IMSA GTLM Championship C8.R Edition that found its way to our inventory from Henderson, Nevada. With a limited production of only 1000 units, this rare specimen was introduced to celebrate Corvette Racing's dominant 2020 IMSA championship.

In the late Sixties, Mercedes-Benz knew that it was time to replace their iconic W114 line-up of grand touring coupes. Development started on a successor, and by 1971, the R107 and C107 generation was released. It bore the name SL, and in the case of the R107, came with a removable hardtop plus a soft top. Meanwhile, the C107 was a fixed-head coupe. The R107 in particular would prove to be a massive success. In total, over 237,000 R107 variants were made between 1971 and 1989. Today, an R107 represents a sound and safe way to get into classic cars, as it’s built tough and can keep going on and on when properly maintained. That’s why we’re glad to offer this 184,122-mile 1972 Mercedes-Benz 450SL from Sandy, Utah for sale today. Its mileage is proof that not only is this a car that can eat up long distances, but it’s also one that encourages you to drive it more and more.

First generation Ford Mustangs are some of the most popular first-time classic cars around. Think we’re mistaken? Well, based on the amount of them that we’ve shifted, we beg to differ. With well over 2.5 million first-gen ‘Stangs created, there’s definitely no shortage of them around. You’ve got six or eight-cylinder power, three alluring body styles to pick from, and manual or automatic transmissions. So, choosing a first-generation Mustang is really down to your specific tastes and desires. Today’s example is a 1970 Ford Mustang Convertible from Portland, Oregon. It’s got a 302ci V8 under the hood, paired with a 3-speed SelectShift automatic gearbox, and also rocks an aftermarket radio. So do let us know if you’d like to own this sub-36,000 mile pony.
