One of the VERY FIRST *ORIGINAL* RED CORVETTES EVER BUILT by Chevrolet-General Motors. (Vin #xxx152). This car has attracted world-wide attention. Please read on...
Showing 26,000 MILES, two owner; car was purchased from retired GM Tech Center Engineer; garaged for decades.
This one of the best 1954 Corvettes still in existence--yes, a very bold statement.
We have only found one other lower mileage '54, owned by Mike
Yeager, owner of Mid-America Corvettes (catalog parts supply
company). His car was recently purchased at auction for nearly
$300,000. Others are now selling in the $225,000-$295,000 range. See
the recent 2007 issue of SPORTS CAR MARKET magazine, with a white 1954
Corvette on the cover--going at auction for over $279,000.
Museum
quality. California car with California title with a believed
correct 26,000 miles on a pristine, perfect underside frame and
body. Runs great.
Correct
and very rare Sportsman Red with correct red interior--only 100 built
with this factory correct red color combination (all 1953's and almost
all 1954's were Polo White). Superb interior in correct red, with
correct red carpeting.
ORIGINAL:
correct date coded side curtains with correct storage case; door
panels, dash, original factory spare tire and tire change instruction
sticker sheet still in trunk (not reproductions). Original wheels and
hubcaps (these are sometimes found on eBay for $3-$5,000 alone).
NOT cheap reproduction parts---these are all correct, genuine
original parts.
Under the hood: Each of the correct Carter tri-carbs still have the original, correct numbered brass id tags. Correct
Blue Flame 6 and Powerglide. All very nice under the hood,
including 1954 ignition shielding and the ultra-short
("pre-Duntov") exhaust tips--see photos, please.
SERIOUS ONLY, please-please-please!
International bidders OK; I have made many sales overseas; insured and timely transport/shipping is not a problem to anywhere in the world.
This
car is offered locally in Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Hollywood and Rancho
Santa Fe, California. This offering may end at anytime without notice.
