Car Overview
Description
A rare early Corvette professionally restored in the spirit of 1955—with small-block V8 performance and classic C1 style.
This beautifully presented 1954 Chevrolet Corvette has been thoughtfully restored and upgraded to resemble the landmark 1955 model year, marking the first appearance of Chevy’s now-iconic small-block V8. Finished in Polo Whiteover a striking red interior with a tan canvas soft top, this car blends vintage style with the power and drivability of a true American performance legend.
