Chevrolet Corvette (1960)
US$ 92,000 (Before Freight & Insurance)
Description:
This iconic 1960 Corvette comes with both hard top and soft top options and stands as a beautifully preserved survivor, not a full restoration. It carries the kind of authentic patina and character that collectors value — a rare blend of originality and mechanical precision. Powered by a 283 V8 paired with the original Borg-Warner 4-speed manual transmission, this Corvette features correct date-coded engine and components throughout. Both the engine and transmission have been professionally rebuilt, with attention to period-correct bolt markings and hardware. Meticulously overhauled from top to bottom, recent work includes a new fuel tank, clutch, and fully rebuilt drivetrain. Mechanically, the car is turnkey and sorted. Owned by the same family since the 1970s, this Corvette is a rare opportunity to own a piece of automotive history that still wears its age with pride.
