1955 CHEVROLET CORVETTE CONVERTIBLE

This 1955 Chevrolet Corvette is powered by its original matching-numbers 265ci V8 engine backed by a 2-speed Powerglide automatic transmission. It's been beautifully restored and finished in Polo White with red interior and a beige top, and is equipped with every option available in 1955, including turn signals, heater, radio, windshield washer and auxiliary bubble hardtop. A three-owner car with ownership history since new, this Corvette was purchased by its first owner on October 31, 1955, and remained in single ownership from 1955 until 2010. A real California car, it spent most of its life in San Francisco and comes with its original Bill of Sale and a full documented history since new with a 3-inch binder of every receipt, original letters from Chevrolet and vintage photos. This very well-kept and preserved car shows well, is #372 of 700 produced and represents the first year for the V8 in a Corvette.
