OVERVIEW: If you are searching for a nice “driver quality” 1959 red Corvette with white coves, allow us to tell you about this beautiful example. It is located in WISCONSIN.
The 283c.i. engine is numbers correct and it runs and performs very well. The three speed manual transmission is in very good condition.
There is no hardtop but the white soft top is newer.
The owner reports the body panels appear to be original. The frame was replaced by a previous owner and is in excellent condition.

867 Base Corvette convertible
101 Heater
102 AM Radio (in storage)

261 Sunshades
290 Whitewall tires
440 Two-tone exterior paint

CONDITION RATING 7: The owner rates the overall cosmetic condition of his Corvette as good. Or if you prefer, “driver quality (rating it at seven).”
The white soft top is newer. The chrome and stainless are in very good condition as is the glass. The interior appears original and in need of some restoration (seats). The undercarriage is solid with no corrosion issues.
As reported by the owner, the Corvette runs strong and tracks straight down the highway. It is especially fun to cruise the country roads in this Corvette with the top down.
The Corvette receives annual maintenance (lube, oil, filter) and is driven occasionally. Also, recent service work on this Corvette include: New wiring. Rebuilt carburetor. Rebuilt speedometer and tachometer. Drum brakes. New fuel tank, fuel lines and fuel pump.
The title is clear.
