Untitled Document 1961 Chevrolet Corvette, 283 V8, Fuellie, Roman Red with White Coves & Top Rare Unrestored 1961 fuellie car. Discovered in the back of a warehouse (heated) and purchased from second owners estate. It had been stored there for over 12 years. The car appeared to be a standard 283 4 barrel, automatic car, very clean no rust. The engine had engine work done on the heads and decked but besides this everything appeared to be original. We cleaned up the car, new fuel lines/dropped cleaned gas tank,new fill hose, new straps, checked/cleaned brakes and lines. Checked motor, rebuilt carb, went thru wiring harness, replaced voltage regulator, replaced convertible top. As we went thru the car we found out that it had been originally a four speed car, replaced in the past w a aluminum 2 speed automatic. This happened way before i owned it. The car started right up with no problems except for a bad tac, drove the car for 2 years no problems. Had corvette collector look at the car for purchase and he mentioned a couple of parts on the car that suggested it was a fuel injected fuellie car. This peaked my curiosity, so i drove the car to a corvette restoration/repair shop nearby and after a close examination by the corvette expert he said he was positive it was a fuellie. I was told that on the fuellie corvettes owners and mechanics did not understand them well enough to keep them up so at the first sign of trouble they would replace them with carbs and the fuel injection system would end up in the trash. Since then I have had several experts here in Michigan look at the car and confirm it is a real fuellie. Car has factory Posse rear end, as indicated by the pictures showing a huge P on rear end next to GM casting marks,posse rear ends are mostly found on fuellie cars and are a very rare option from the factory. Also has Tag w notch from the assembly/factory still attached to the bolt as in shown on pictures. Again factory option, not dealership add on, the big P marking on rear end was only on factory installed posse rear ends. The corvette experts tell me this rear end alone is worth over $2k. Selling off a few cars in my collection for wholesale. Please check out my auctions as I will be selling 5 to 6 cars this week.
