1954 Chevrolet Corvette C1 Roadster

  • Chassis Number: E54003065
This 1954 Chevrolet Corvette has never been shown at any major events. It is finished in the classic combination of Polo White with a Sportsman Red interior. It is equipped with the original factory radio, and original 251 cubic-inch overhead valve Blue Flame six mated to the correct Powerglide automatic gearbox. During the 1990s, the car was given a restoration and has traveled a mere 500 miles since that time.

In 2008 this Corvette was brought to the Automobiles of Amelia presented by RM Auctions. It was offered for sale and estimated to fetch between $115,000 - $130,000. Bidding reached 70,000 but was not enough to satisfy the car's reserve and left the auction unsold.
