Chevrolet Corvette

For sale by a private party is this numbers matching 1956 Chevrolet Corvette which came with the 245 H.P., 2 x 4 Barrel, 3-speed, 3.70:1 rear differential, and power top options.

The current owner is believed to be the third since new and purchased the car over 25 years ago from the individual who had the car restored. Since then only 8,000 miles have been logged on the odometer going to local shows and cruise events.

The original 2 x 4-barrel intake and carburetor system has been changed over to a Holley dominator intake and Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor. The owner did NOT, I REPEAT DID NOTkeep the original set up. Additionally, this car came with a power top. All the hardware including the convertible top frame were removed and sold so they DO NOTcome with the car.

The Cascade Green w/ White cove body and paint look great, but in some areas, it is showing its age (please view pictures carefully). Recently, the entire car was looked over and had a new gas tank installed along with new brake lines. The Corvette runs great and catches everyone’s eye wherever it goes.

I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for more than 15 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 10 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
