Description : Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis presents this 1961 Chevrolet Corvette.
This C1 beauty is painted black with silver coves, and sports a black soft top, hard top, and interior. All these items appear to be in great or like new condition. Black is a double-edged sword. It is one of the hardest colors to keep clean and show worthy, but few colors do a cars natural beauty more justice than black!
Seeing the silver shine out of the coves along with the shiny chrome brightwork the car begins speaking to you. Peak inside and the condition speaks for itself! It's no surprise Corvettes have captivated the public eye for nearly 70 years! The styling is timeless and tasteful.
Before the seller acquired the vehicle it reportedly underwent a $100,000 plus restoration. The seller stated to us that it was a nut and bolt restoration however that paperwork doesn't seem to have been passed along. Worth mentioning the horn and wipers are currently inoperable.
Behind the custom aluminum wheel are front disc brakes, and on the interior the seller states it has the originally optioned FM radio.

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.
