Default F/S: 1959 Corvette Dual Quad 270hp/283ci 4-Speed, Red/White Coves over Red Interior

1959 Corvette Dual Quad 270hp/283ci 4-speed. Numbers matching down to the radiator. A few items are not numbers matching, such as the ignition coil and generator. Even has original rebound straps (refer to itemized list below). Roman Red with White coves, Red interior and Black soft top. Solid driver quality. Paint is a 10-footer with light peeling in a few spots, but is presentable and shines real nice. Interior is like new. Vehicle has tremendous pedigree and needs to go to a good home to enjoy as a nice driver or a great candidate for a full restoration. Located in Milwaukee, WI. Asking $62,500. Matching hard top available for an additional $3,500. Call or text Mark 262-488-7220.
