Default F/S: 59 C1 Corvette Hard Top Convertible $55,000

I am selling my 1959 Corvette, here are some specifics;
All original with 47,XXX miles
Matching numbers
283 8 Cylinder with 2 speed automatic transmission
Fires up and drives great
This has been in my family since 1998 and is not a show car but is in great shape. I would consider it a car you can show off and enjoy right away while also doing light projects to perfect it. It has a lot of sentimental value and I am only selling it to free up money so I can make memories with my two small children.

There are no major problems other than the passenger door needing adjustment and needing a fresh battery.

I am asking $55,000 but will take serious offers. The car is located in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Thanks for the correction. I knew it was the smaller engine option for the year model and misunderstood the difference. Thanks for pointing this out.

I will be happy to in the morning. I don't have immediate access to the car. It is stored in a family members garage.

Default 1959 Corvette

This 59 Corvette is a new listing of an old 2015 thread. Is this car currently for sale?

Guys, this Sales thread is 3 years old. Please contact the listing member by PM to inquire directly if the car ever sold. It’s likely he won’t be checking this thread.
