What exactly is a Bricklin SV-1? Built between 1974 and 1976 with a production run of less than 3000 units, it was one of the quirkier sports cars of the 70s. The name comes from Malcolm Bricklin; the founder of the company and the creator of the SV-1. SV-1 is an abbreviation of “Safety Vehicle 1”. The design was done by Herb Grasse. While the first prototypes were ready by late 1972, it would be early 1974 by the time it was finally launched, and the final product had some significant changes compared to the early prototypes. 3 cars were also leased to the police department of Scottsdale, Arizona. Despite its interesting design, and its color-impregnated fiberglass body and safety features, rising prices and other problems ultimately led to the closure of Bricklin in 1975, with the last few cars being completed and sold in 1976 by Consolidated Motors (who bought the remnants of the company). This example was built in 1975 and has been signed by Malcolm Bricklin himself.
The most important part of this car’s design is the Corvette-like fiberglass body, which had the car’s color integrated into it rather than being painted. 5 colors were offered - this one is blue. One of its main safety features was the roll cage integrated into the chassis. Visually, its main eye-catching features are the hidden headlamps and the air gullwing doors. This vehicle has a gray/black interior with a new mahogany dash and steering wheel. It also has new gauges. The A/C is fully functional. The car has been fully restored with a new paintjob and new BF Goodrich tires. It has its owner’s manual and brochure and retains its original wheels. The bumpers were designed to absorb energy in an impact up to 5 mph.
Being a 1975 model, this car has the 351ci Ford Windsor V8 with a 3-speed automatic transmission driving the rear wheels. The engine has been rebuilt. It also has new suspension and brakes. The brakes consist of discs at the front and drums at the back, power assisted. According to the seller, this vehicle has just 34000 miles on it.

In 1953, Chevrolet introduced a car that would shake up the American sports car market. Yes, the Corvette was born that year. With breathtaking styling by Harley Earl, this iconic sports car initially came with a six-cylinder engine that was definitely unsuitable for such an amazing piece of automotive art and mechanical excellence. So, Chevy rectified the mistake by 1955 with the introduction of the Small-Block V8. Initially displacing 265ci, it grew to a 327ci unit by 1962. That’s what we have in this 1957 Chevrolet Corvette, with its 327ci V8 that packs dual quad carburetors and a reported output of 400 horseower. This Washington-based car also comes with its original interior, as well as original Corvette wheels. If you want a special classic Corvette that’s definitely going to be valuable for years to come, talk to us right now.

Plus, there’s a whole list of new and replaced parts that have been installed, bringing this Corvette to a whole new level in terms of condition.
