1957 Chevrolet Corvette C1 Navigation
This 1957 Corvette Airbox is one of only 43 such vehicles produced by General Motors.
The Airbox had a somewhat crude, practically hand-laid up, fiberglass ductwork attached to the left inner fender, and a hole was cut into the left side of the radiator support to allow air into the ductwork.
All 43 of these vehicles were built with heavy-duty everything (translate - factory race car), brakes, suspension, special steering, No radio, No heater, wide wheels, tachometer mounted (clamped) on the steering column, fuel injection, heavy-duty shocks, and a competition exhaust system.
These cars sold new for $7,026.30, which was quite a sum in 1957.
