Rare Panama Yellow and Snow Crest White coved 1958 Corvette roadster with new white convertible top and black interior. This stunning little Corvette is powered by a smooth running 283 c.i. engine and automatic transmission. We purchased this rare gem from local private owners who lovingly enjoyed and maintained it like one of the family. The one year only hood louvers and chrome trunk spears accent a body with very good fit and finish. Wide whitewall tires and Corvette spinner hubcaps look just right.

Wikipedia Information"The Chevrolet Corvette, known colloquially as the Vette or Chevy Corvette, is a sports car manufactured by Chevrolet. The car has been produced through seven generations.
The first model, a convertible, was introduced at the GM Motorama in 1953 as a concept show car. Myron Scott is credited for naming the car after the type of small, maneuverable warship called a corvette. Originally built in Flint, Michigan and St. Louis, Missouri, since 1981, the Corvette has been manufactured in Bowling Green, Kentucky and is the official sports car of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. While always being an automobile known for speed and performance throughout its history, the Corvette has evolved throughout the generations into becoming the widely regarded, although never officially declared, flagship model of the Chevrolet car brand."
"The first generation of Corvette was introduced late in the 1953 model year. Originally designed as a show car for the 1953 Motorama display at the New York Auto Show, it generated enough interest to induce GM to make a production version to sell to the public. First production was on June 30, 1953."
"The 1958 Corvette received a body and interior freshening which included a longer front end with quad headlamps, bumper exiting exhaust tips, a new steering wheel, and a dashboard with all gauges mounted directly in front of the driver.
Exclusive to the 1958 model were hood louvers and twin trunk spears."
