Up for sale in our tampa showroom is by far one of the most iconic american sports cars ever made, the 1954 Chevrolet Corvette. These cars were built in very limited production during its early years with a total of 3634 total Corvettes built in 1954, 3,230 were built in the polo white, 300 built in pennant blue, 100 built in sportsman red, and a mere 4 built in black. The one you see here is originally a pennant blue car but has since been repainted. The color could not be matched perfectly so it does appear a few shades darker than the original. The pennant blue Corvette's were only available with beige interiors, which gave the car a very classy look. This Corvette has had a slight upgrade from the original with the addition of am/fm radio with digital tuner. The current owner/builder made sure to install a retrosound radio so as not to take too much away from the car during this upgrade. Now one major iconic aspect of this car, is that it does come with the original blue flame six, 235 cid inline 6 engine, which was used in a lot of cars during this era, and although not the most popular engine Chevrolet ever built, when you install this engine into a lightweight fiberglass body with an astounding center of gravity, a car like this can outrun any other american built car during the 1950's. One thing a lot of restoration shops do on a car like this, is to gut out the original inline 6 and replace it with a 327, 350 or even a big block because they feel the car lacks in power. The fact that this builder actually kept the original engine actually shows a love for the car as it was sitting on the showroom floor in 1954. The trunk is quite large on this car as well, with special pockets sewn in to hold the side windows up when you want to go cruising with the top down. True to the Corvette standard, this car, as many others after has an easy to use manual convertible top, which folds under a special fiberglass tonneau cover behind the drivers seat. This 1954 Chevrolet Corvette is a truly rare car indeed, with only 300 of these made it is hard to imagine how many are actually left, so don't miss on your opportunity to own the car that began the american sports car craze. Options include am/fm radio, radial tires, aluminum/alloy wheels, manual convertible top, automatic transmission and the original blue flame six engine!
