The 1958 Chevrolet Corvette C1 belongs to the first generation introduced by Chevrolet in 1953. However, the Corvette saw a significant change by the mid-1950’s, as focus shifted towards enhanced performance. This translated into improved and more capable engines. By 1958 the Corvette adopted the chrome and quad headlamp design. This two-door sports car was a major head-turner — an aspect that continues to endure to this day. As a bonus, this particular example of the 1958 Chevrolet Corvette C1 rolled out of Corvette Corrections (by Billy Dawson) and sits on a chassis from 1996 Grand Sport w/ 7000 miles with Corvette Correction front and rear suspension. Located in Pennsylvania, it has undergone an extensive restoration, blending modernity while retaining its classic appeal.
While the four headlamps continued in the following model years, the faux-louvered hood and chrome trunk spears were unique to the 1958 Corvette. This Corvette is painted in dark red with iconic contrasting white coves, enhancing its look. The chrome is beautifully done by Prestige Planting, while Corvette Central has modified the windshield post. It rides on Kumho 235/55R17 tires with 17 x 8.5 front and rear wheels from East Coast Vette. The soft-top has been installed by Al Knock, and the LED tail lamps are by Lambert Enterprise. The interior presents a beige and dark red theme with the steering column & dash knobs by IDITIT. All instrumentation and gauges are placed in front of the driver as the highlight being the speedometer. The cabin also features Vintage A/C by Gen II MINI, power windows, radio, speakers by Rogers Clocks, seats by Wise Guys Seats, and door panels by Baldo Upholstery.
Powering the 1958 Chevrolet Corvette C1 is a 6.2L (283 ci) overhead valve V8 engine. It sends power to the rear wheels with the help of an automatic transmission. The chassis is from 1996 Grand Sport with 7000 miles, and front and rear suspension are from Corvette Correction. It also features a 4L65E transmission and LS2 engine, which were both purchased new from GM in 2005. The car features ABS power brakes, master cylinder, and booster. The brake lines and hoses, emergency brake cables, fuel tank, fuel filter, radiator, and fuel lines are newly upgraded. The Driveshaft (31” center to center) is by Seguin Drive Line, and Engine Wiring & computer are done by Fast Electronics. The standard engine is said to develop 230 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque.
This 1974 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe, in all its orange glory, comes from an era of resilience. The C3 or third-gen ‘Vette is the longest-running of them all, with a fourteen-year production run between 1968 and 1982. Cars like this one are historically significant because they weathered the most dreaded time in American auto history; the Malaise Era. Even during those times, the Corvette was still the fastest American car available. Now, you can see why, when you take a closer look at this 24,000-mile machine from Island Lake, Illinois. It’s a survivor, a stunning looker, and above all, never compromised on engines by always having a V8 beneath the hood. So why not buy this beautiful boulevard cruiser and stick it to today’s soulless EVs?
Eight generations of Corvette are available right now, and we at Exotic Car Trader have shifted examples from all eight of them. Today’s 2010 Chevrolet Corvette 2LT Convertible comes from the sixth generation, called the C6. It’s a fine, V8-powered drop-top from Cabot, Arkansas and comes with just 8,795 miles on the clock. Plus, it’s got the owners manual included with the sale, as well as both keys. Oh, and did we say it’s rear wheel drive and packing a stick shift? Yup, this might as well be driving nirvana, wrapped up in a white package and containing red leather on the inside.
This 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is available right now in San Marcos, Texas, and why should you buy it? Well, for starters, it’s got a scarcely believable 8,000 miles on the odometer! That’s fantastic for a sixth-generation or C6 Corvette, but this car also rocks the Z51 Performance Package and the 3LT Preferred Equipment Group. This means it’s not only well-equipped, but a treat to drive. In case you don’t know, the C6 was a notable step up from the C5 thanks to its slightly shorter overall dimensions but longer wheelbase. This made the car a nicer handling package, as well as gave it a roomier interior. Plus, this car comes with a 6-speed manual transmission to really work out the larger V8 that came with the C6. There’s more, of course, so keep reading.
