DESCRIPTION

When Collectible Automobile magazine was looking for a cover Corvette for their June issue in 1992, they eventually found a beautiful red 1960 Corvette that absolutely exploded off the cover. We are proud to be able to offer this Magazine cover quality car today. Since its fifteen minutes of fame this car has been pampered like a movie star and maintained to exacting standards.

The red and white color combination that presented so well on the magazine cover presents every bit as well on the road and in the drive way. The paint remains shinny and smooth. The chrome and trim are in top-notch condition rounding out a truly stunning piece of American motoring art. The Red interior space is nearly flawless having clearly been used sparingly. The Red leather seats show almost no wear and have no notable flaws. The interior trim and accents are all in place and present extremely well. The complete interior package in this condition sets this Corvette apart from all the rest.

The numbers matching drive train will insure the value of this car for any and all future owners. The 283 cubic inch power plant topped with dual quad carburettors, mated with a four speed manual transmission make this one of the most enjoyable classic rides to slip behind the wheel of. If you are looking for an iconic piece of American design and muscle give this Chevrolet a close inspection!

Offered for auction by a notable collector from the USA, buyers are advised that it may attract import tax at the prevailing rate, subject to the country of it's final destination.
