1954 CHEVROLET CORVETTE ROADSTER



Chevrolet switched Corvette generation in 1954 to the unique St. Louis plant, whose 10,000-auto limit could not be arrived at until 1960. One of 3,640 constructed in the second year of preparation, this uncommon 1954 Corvette roadster was a beneficiary of the National Corvette Restorers Society Top Flight Award with a dumbfounding 98.8 focus score. The effect of a complete casing-off restoration, it is completed in famous and production line redress Polo White with a Beige delicate best and immaculate Red inside.

The right code F54YG Blue Flame inline-6 motor headlines the early-handling projectile-style air cleansing specialists on the triple Carter carburetors and is mated to the standard Powerglide 2-speed programmed, both reconstructed as a major aspect of the restoration. Portrayed by preferable-than-revamped board arrangement, excellent chrome and glass and skillfully restored spinner hubcaps with Firestone wide whitewall tires, this prize-winning ’54 comes finish with the working first Wonderbar radio, lovely side blinds in the right shade-matching space pack and NCRS Confirmation of Existence of Judging Awards.
