Description : Our Nashville showroom digitally showcases this stunning 1955 Chevrolet Corvette, This '55 Corvette for sale is sporting a beautiful Pennant Blue coat of paint with a tan interior. The Body lines on this C1 for sale are stunning and remind us all of the obsession of the time being rockets. Flash Gordon, Rocket man and many other TV shows and toys, all had been somewhat influenced by rockets. One look at this car and it becomes crystal clear that it too, took styling ques from the rocket. Smooth body lines and rocket style fins, this car looks like it is doing 95MPH while it is sitting still. Under the hood is a 265 Cubic inch V8 that churns out a whopping 195 horsepower! But that is all you need in a light weight fiberglass car that is really more about fun than fast. Sitting behind the V8 is a two speed powerglide automatic transmission that is sweet for cruising the back-country roads or barreling down Route 66. This is the car test pilots took home after a day strapped into a rocket engine with stubby wings that we now refer to as Fighter jets. Two seats, V8, two speeds and one drop top that equals a whole lot of fun. Options for this 1955 Corvette for sale feature: Manual convertible top, Hub caps, Vinyl interior and white wall tires.

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.
