This car is not just about aesthetics; it’s a testament to the enduring strength and reliability of Chevrolet engineering.

The white manual convertible top is easy to operate, allowing you to enjoy open-air driving whenever the mood strikes, and the added traction bars & rear sway bar add some extra stability to the handling on this classic. For your entertainment, this Corvette is fitted with an AM/FM radio, allowing you to tune into your favorite stations and also features original hub caps, adding to its authentic, classic appeal and the added Firestone Fire Hawk 500 rubber makes this Vette an absolute joy to cruise!.
