1959 Chevrolet Corvette
Duncan Classics is pleased to present this 1959 Chevrolet Corvette Roadster. This classic Vette is the recent recipient of a high quality and meticulous rotisserie restoration performed by PSI Motorsports in Sterling Heights, MI. It comes complete with the matching hardtop and looks stunning in black with white coves with a black and white Al Knoch interior complete with leather seats, leather dash, and deluxe leather door panels. The car also features a Jim Meyer front suspension consisting of a rack and pinion with coil over shocks which enables the car to perform much better than suspension technology from 55 years ago. For 1959, the Corvette received minor updates such as the new reverse lockout t-handle on the 4-speed shifter, the seats and door panels were redesigned and a shelf was added under the dash, a new instrument panel with concave instruments to reduce glare was introduced and the tachometer, seat belts, outside rear view mirrors, electric clock and dual exhaust was now standard equipment. Decoding the VIN reveals: • J = Corvette • 59 = 1959 • S = St. Louis, Missouri Assembly • 301063 = 1,063rd in production sequence Decoding the Cowl Tag reveals: • The Cowl Tag is no longer present but it is believed to have been originally Inca Silver with a Red interior. It has 3,157 miles on the clock since its immaculate concourse-level rotisserie restoration. The 283ci V8 is non-numbers matching from a 1957 Corvette with a Carter carburetor matted to a 4-speed manual. The car features power steering with the Jim Meyer front suspension as mentioned, rear shocks, front and rear disc brakes, and heat. It also comes with 2 keys and the original owner's manual. Pictures do not do this car justice as its presentation is astonishing and it performs even better than it looks! Being a Corvette with less than 10,000 produced in this model year is a key indicator that these vehicles will only continue to increase in value. Being one in this pristine of condition offers up a superb investment opportunity, call now for further details.
