1962 CHEVROLET CORVETTE C1

"1962 CHEVROLET CORVETTTE C1 Serial number: 20867S113500 The most beautiful Corvette In an excellent general condition French title In the lineage of American muscle cars, the Chevrolet Corvette has a prominent place. It is, so to speak, the pioneer in this field. The first generation called C1 was introduced in 1953. It was developed by Harley Earl, who convinced the GM group to produce an all-American sports car. Thus was born the EX-122 project presented in 1953 at the General Motors Motorama. If you didn't know Harley Earl, you should know that this automotive stylist is the creator of many concept cars such as the Cadillac Cyclone XP-74. Six months after the presentation of the car, the first models are produced and sold. In order to guarantee a lower price compared to the one mentioned, the GM general manager made different modifications and used parts from other models. Originally, three bodies were to be produced: the roadster (the one we all know), the Corvair fastback (which never went into production) and the Nomad station wagon (which was produced but remains rare). Today, the Corvette is a favorite among American car lovers. The car we present for sale is a Corvette C1 series 3 recognizable thanks to its 4 rear lights, future trademark of the following generations. This car dates from 1962, the year before the introduction of the C2. It is in excellent general condition. The bodywork is flawless, as well as the red paint. Inside, nothing to complain about, the black upholstery is also in excellent condition. No holes or scratches have been found. The soft top that fits in the compartment between the trunk and the passenger compartment is almost new. The manual mechanisms that allow it to be folded down work perfectly. Under the hood, you will find a V8 engine that runs without any problem. However, the seller indicates that the temperature gauge has been changed is incorrectly set. Other than that, the cooling system works normally. This car, almost out of the dealership, can hit the road and take you anywhere in style.
