Highly Optioned Corvette

1956 Chevrolet Corvette Additional Info:

Hell, I'm selling a beautiful frame-off restored Corvette.I am a car enthusiast. I'm now sixty plus and my whole life wanted one of these early Vettes. This one was optioned with a power top and 220 horse power motor. Also automatic was an early option, but thankfully this one did not receive it. I have the receipts where the car was restored in 2005. The receipts are extensive. The motor was rebuilt at the time of restoration. Approximately 15 thousands miles on the motor and since restoration. It just a wonderful reliable automobile. Runs great. No leaks or anything it currently needs. Gauges all work correctly. I recently sent the clock off and had it rebuilt. Still runs a little fast. The previous owner was having health problems or he would have never sold it. He owned the car 15 years and you could tell it was hard for him to part with it. He did state the power top is all there but it not connected. I assume the cylinders or pump needs rebuilt. I took the hardtop off after receiving the car two years ago and never thought about using it or the cloth top. These cars are for sunny days! I put the soft top up in one minute. It's the first time it's been up since I purchased the car. It looks as though it's never been used.The only thing he did while he owned it was upgrade the brakes. ( Father-Son) project. He put disc on the front and it stops great. I still have the old drums for the purist. Also he's added seat belts.My picture do not do the car justice .It's absolutely a beautiful color. More turquoise than green. The beige coves are a little brighter than what I would consider beige. However, these are the correct colors and quite stunning.The only reason I'm selling the car is to invest in real estate. Please contact me if you have any question. 417-438-8200Thanks again for looking.
