Beschreibung

The 1961 Chevrolet Corvette C1 is an iconic American classic, combining unmistakable styling with the character of Chevrolet's legendary sportscars. Its sculpted body, distinctive rear design and V8 performance make it highly desirable among collectors. Representing the final evolution of the first-generation Corvette, the 1961 C1 remains a timeless and celebrated classic.

Beautifully presented and extensively developed, this 1961 Chevrolet Corvette C1 has been owned by the current vendor for over two years and previously formed part of a well-known Corvette specialist's personal collection. First registered in the UK in 2010, it is HPI clear and comes with a comprehensive history file including restoration photographs, receipts and magazine features. Featured in Classic American and a winner at numerous car shows, the Corvette has been sympathetically upgraded into a highly usable and confidence-inspiring restomod while retaining its iconic period character. Recent investment includes a full 2025 respray, refurbished interior, new soft-top and restored hardtop, refreshed chrome, complete rewiring and modern heating and audio with Bluetooth connectivity. Underneath the original 283ci V8 has been professionally rebuilt and enlarged to 327ci specification, paired with a Tremec five-speed manual gearbox, Holley four-barrel carburettor, MSD ignition and a stainless-steel exhaust with Hooker headers. Upgrades include rack-and-pinion steering, coil-over independent front suspension, revised differential gearing and a dual-circuit braking system with front disc brakes, making it considerably more suited to modern British roads. With an insurance valuation of £85,000, significant recent expenditure and outstanding presentation, this is a particularly desirable C1 offering the perfect blend of classic American styling, proven provenance and modern drivability.
