Description
This 1954 Chevrolet Corvette custom convertible is powered by a 350ci Chevrolet V-8 engine equipped with a Summit four-barrel carburetor, Chevrolet-branded valve covers, exhaust headers, an aluminum radiator and an electric cooling fan. Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a 700R4 four-speed automatic overdrive transmission. It features Mustang II front suspension and rack-and-pinion steering. Dual exhaust outlets exit through the rear valance. Power-assisted front disc brakes provide stopping power. The exterior is finished in silver basecoat/clearcoat paint and features a replacement curved windshield, wire-mesh headlight guards, a chrome grille, LED lighting, front directional signals, Chevrolet fender badging and a three-piece rear bumper. A soft-top frame is included. The custom interior features bucket seats finished in black and red vinyl and faired into the rear bodywork. Interior equipment includes a dash-mounted rearview mirror, lap belts, polished door sills, a floor-mounted shifter, a Vintage Air system, custom instrumentation with a 140-mph speedometer and a three-spoke steering wheel with a Flaming River horn button assembly. Recent mechanical servicing included replacement spark plugs, belts, battery, oil pan gasket, water pump gasket, transmission pan and transmission filter. It rides on new custom wheels and tires.
