This Chevy Corvette has been given a concours-quality restoration and is powered by a rebuilt 283/230 HP small-block V8 with a rebuilt carburetor. The engine is teamed with a date code-correct Borg Warner T-10 4-speed transmission and a 3.55:1 rear end. It has rebuilt brakes, cooling and fuel systems, and suspension. There is a new dual exhaust system, and the factory wheels have newly restored wheel covers and new wide Whitewall tires. It has an Ermine White and Silver finish with a Red interior. There is a signal-seeking Wonderbar AM radio, and auxiliary hardtop, and it has been driven just 232 miles since its completion.By Daniel Vaughan | Mar 2016
