1954 CHEVROLET CORVETTE CONVERTIBLE ROADSTER RARE NO RESERVEHi, up for auction is this beautiful 1954 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible, "" NOT a clone "" the 236 Vette off the line back in 54 and the 536 ever made, this is the real deal. This car was parked under a shed and covered for many years, owned by an older gentleman who use to be a race car driver and a Corvette enthusiast. This was the last Corvette in his collection, he loved this one the most and it almost brought him to tears when he knew it was going ( I guess you can say this is a true barn find) . He had it restored about 30 years ago and owned it for a little longer then that, upon restoration the transmission was replace with a better 1959 Powerglide transmission and it is believed to be the original inline 6cyl Blue Flame engine. This beauty runs and drives ( well I might add ) comes with side skirt windows, all emblems, grill has small crack in it have replacement grill, a new top was put on but didn't fit properly so it was removed, all hardware is still there just needs new canvas, and with a little love and care and a fresh coat of paint this classic piece of history can be worth upwards of a $100K. This car is not only super rare since they only produced 3,640 that year, but great fun and a even better investment. Being offered at auction for only 3 days with a starting price of $55K and NO RESERVE it will be sold to the highest bidder over that. Please if you have any questions or concerns ask prior to bidding.... Thank you and GOOD LUCK (702) 788-3375
