This Chevrolet Corvette C1 got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1958 Chevrolet Corvette was sold new by Stohlman Chevrolet in Washington, D.C., and a refurbishment was completed in the 1990s. Acquired by the seller in 1995, the car is finished in black with silver coves over a red interior and is powered by a 283ci V8 that is backed by a three-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes a black soft top, 15″ steel wheels, lap belts, and a cassette stereo. This C1 is now offered with a copy of the original sales invoice, the owner’s manual, and a Maryland title in the seller’s name.
