This 1961 Chevrolet Corvette is finished in black over matching vinyl upholstery and is powered by a replacement 302ci V8 with a .030″ overbore and paired with a four-speed manual transmission.
Additional features include a removable black hardtop, a chrome grille and air intake surrounds, quick-release hood pins, dual chrome side mirrors, an electric cut-off switch atop the left rear fender, a 22-gallon ATL fuel cell mounted in the trunk, and an exhaust outlet ahead of each rear wheel.
Alloy 15″ American Racing wheels wear older 26.5/7.00″ Hoosier Comanche racing tires.
The suspension was lowered by 2″ and further modified with 1.5″-taller shock mounts and outboard-relocated lower A-arms.
The rear end was aligned to increase toe-in and negative camber.
Braking is supplied by 11″ drums cooled by custom aluminum ducts.
The interior features fixed-back bucket seats upholstered in black vinyl and fitted with Simpson five-point harnesses along with matching carpeting, dashboard, and door panels equipped only with door-release knobs.
Appointments include a welded-in roll bar, a fire-suppression system, a rearview mirror atop the dashboard, and a Hurst shifter with a reverse lock-out.
A four-spoke steering wheel is mounted on a shortened steering column and frames a central 160-mph speedometer and CS-logo instrumentation including a tachometer with a 6,500-rpm redline and gauges for fuel pressure, oil pressure, oil temperature, and water temperature.
A second oil pressure gauge is mounted in the center console along with fuel and ignition switches, a brake bias adjuster, and a fire-suppression button.
The five-digit odometer shows 56k miles, total mileage is unknown.
