Chevrolet Corvette C1 (0) 1959
General description :
This 1962 Chevrolet Corvette C1 is red, very 60’s red that is. 1963 saw the end of the live rear axle on the Corvette C1. With sales of 14,351 cars 1962 was the most successful year for the Corvette C1. Today it has become a rare and very sought after model. It is an older restored car that has withstood the ravages of time well. The restored bodywork is very neat. The fine bodywork is correctly aligned. The re-sprayed “Rally Red” paintwork is in very good condition. The hood is as good as new and shuts perfectly. Underneath the condition is as sound as a rock. The interior has been re-upholstered in the past. The carpets as pristine and the condition of the red leather seating is excellent and has acquired a lovely patina. The Corvette is in tip-top order mechanically. The drive emphasises to good effect the fairly recent engine and gearbox overhaul. The engine is very healthy and runs fantastically. The popular and rare manual gearbox shifts effortlessly. The high-torque V8 really knows how to make driving this lightweight American sports car into a feast! Every mile is accompanied by that magnificent “Chevy V8” soundtrack. In summary what we have here is an extremely well maintained Corvette in excellent condition, guaranteeing many more miles of V8 driving pleasure.Gallery Aaldering is Europe’s leading Classic Cars specialist since 1975!

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing. No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.
When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.
Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.
To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.
With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
