1961 Chevrolet Corvette original miles 88000 283 cid 230 hp with Powerglide
This is a high end driver and is original miles (88000, just under) . This is not a NCRS car at this time. This is a car that all the owners loved and passed down and drove it. We win or come in 2nd at every corvette show we go to . Last year we came in second with 23 cars in the c-1 category.
This is numbers matching 1961 Corvette Roadster 283 cid 230 hp with Powerglide and the optional heater, radio and hardtop ( I believe hardtop has original paint and looks good).
The car is Honduras Maroon with high lite coves delete and black interior, the soft top is White and the optional hardtop is (original paint?) Honduras with a white headliner. The paint is in great shape. The hubcaps are 61 or 62 (depending on who u talk to). All the chrome is in good condition with slight pitting on front bumpers (rear bumpers are recrhomed and shines beautifully. The car is garage kept and under a car cover with a trickle charger on battery (both included).
All the gauges are original, work and illuminate, including the cigarette lighter, and courtesy dash light. The high beam indicator light works and the emergency brake warning light flashes after the bulb warms up. The inside of the glove box door has the correct GM Paint maintenance sticker. The drivers door mirror has small mirror attached . The tail light lens covers and front running light lens covers also carry the "Guide manufacturer" stamp. The car has the correct hardware GM used for installing the sun visors. The heater has a new blower and works great.
The spare tire board and bolt look original and the board has GM jack instructions. I believe the jack and jack handle are original GM 1961 Corvette.
The engine purrs like a kitten when standing beside the engine compartment but walk to the rear and the factory road pipes give the car a sound sweeter than any Harley. The car is very quiet to drive and you do not hear the exhaust. The only things not correct in the engine compartment is the Interstate Battery where an AC/Delco Battery with yellow caps for adding water to the cells was original, and I have a spin on oil filter instead of the canister.
