1961 CHEVROLET CORVETTE CONVERTIBLE 4-SPEED 283-245 H.P.

DUAL QUADS, 4 SPEED, POSI, NUMBERS MATCH, FRAME OFF RESTORED.  THIS IS ONE AMAZING CORVETTE, ORIGINALLY BROUGHT TO US FOR CONSIGNMENT BUT QUICKLY BECAME A MUSEUM FAVORITE.  PURCHASED BY AND ADDED TO THE PRIVATE COLLECTION OF GREG GRAMS, OWNER OF THE VOLO MUSEUM.  IT IS THE NICEST DRIVING STRAIGHT AXLE VETTE ANY OF US HAVE DRIVEN. DOORS CLICK SHUT, WINDOWS FIT THE TOP RAL WELL, GAUGES ALL WORK, DOES NOT RUN HOT, NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR ON A TEST DRIVE.  IT WAS RESTORED, BODY OFF, TO A SUPERB SHOW CONDITION. BODY WAS STRIPPED BARE. THE SEEMS WERE ALL REFILLED AND THE CAR WAS BLOCK SANDED.THE FRAME AND ALL METAL PARTS WERE STRIPPED AND PAINTED IN IMRON. THE CAR WAS RESTORED TO SHOW STANDARDS, BUT MAKING A SHOW CAR WAS NOT THE ONLY GOAL. HE WANTED A CAR HE COULD GET IN AND DRIVE ANYWHERE, ANYTIME. BEING  EXTREMELY METICULOUS, HE PUT ON 10K MILES OVER A 10 YEAR PERIOD. THE CAR STILL LOOKS TODAY AS GOOD AS IT DID WHEN FIRST RESTORED.  THE UNDERCARRIAGE IS FULLY DETAILED, THE PAINT IS SHOW QUALITY AND HAS NOT DEVELOPED ANY “STRESS” CRACKS, THE INTERIOR IS LIKE NEW, SHOW PLATED CHROME AND MORE.  MECHANICALLY THE CAR IS ALL REBUILT FROM THE ENGINE TO THE CLOCK.  THE TIRES WERE UPGRADED TO WIDE WHITE WALL RADIALS.  IT HAS IT ALL, LOOKS, QUALITY, AUTHENTICITY, RARITY AND PERFORMANCE.
