Description:

This 1961 Chevrolet Corvette Fuelie Convertible is a rare gem in the automotive world. Sporting a vibrant Roman Red exterior with crisp white accents, this Corvette showcases the iconic first-generation design that put America on the sports car map. The sleek, flowing lines are accentuated by chrome trim that gleams in the sunlight. Rolling on 15" wheels wrapped in 205/75R15 Coker Classic tires, this Corvette maintains its period-correct stance. The white vinyl convertible top adds a touch of contrast, while the removable red fiberglass hardtop offers versatility for any driving condition.

Step inside, and you're greeted by a striking red vinyl interior that mirrors the exterior's bold aesthetic. The bucket seats provide both comfort and support, perfect for spirited driving or cruising. The floor-mounted shifter for the 4-speed manual transmission sits ready for action. This Corvette's cabin is a testament to the era's focus on the driver, with a clean instrument layout and minimal distractions. The lack of modern amenities like power steering or air conditioning keeps the driving experience pure and engaging, just as it was intended in 1961.

Under the hood lurks the crown jewel of this Corvette - the numbers-matching 283 cubic inch V8 engine. This powerplant is equipped with the coveted Rochester fuel injection system, a technological marvel of its time that boosted output to an impressive 315 horsepower. The engine is mated to a Borg Warner T10 4-speed manual transmission, believed to be original. This drivetrain combination delivers a visceral, seat-of-your-pants driving experience that's becoming increasingly rare in today's world. The dual exhaust system provides a throaty soundtrack to accompany your journey.
