This 1954 Chevrolet Corvette is the 3,394th of 3,640 examples produced for the model year, and it was refurbished and modified under previous ownership. It is powered by a 350ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission and it is refinished and reupholstered in red. Features include a tan soft top, a curved windshield, 18″ Foose wheels, a Holley four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock intake manifold, dual Flowmaster exhaust, power-assisted rack and pinion steering, tubular lower control arms, power-assisted front disc brakes, an aftermarket retro-style stereo, and a dash-mounted rear-view mirror. This C1 Corvette was acquired by the selling dealer in 2024 and is now offered with a clean Pennsylvania title.
The car was refinished in red under previous ownership and features a replacement tan convertible top, a curved windshield, a chrome grille and trim, headlight screens, a driver-side rearview mirror, directional signals, Chevrolet fender badging, a three-piece rear bumper, and dual exhaust outlets exiting through the rear valance.
Foose 18″ wheels are mounted with Lexani tires measuring 255/35 up front and 255/45 out back. The C1 was equipped from the factory with an independent front suspension, front and rear hydraulic shocks, and a live rear axle with semi-elliptical leaf springs. Modifications include power-assisted rack and pinion steering, tubular lower control arms, and power-assisted front disc brakes.
The bucket seats are faired into the rear bodywork and are reupholstered red vinyl, and they are complemented by a color-coordinated dash pad and door panels. Interior appointments include a dash-mounted rear-view mirror, an aftermarket retro-style stereo, an analog clock, a floor-mounted shifter, and polished door sills.
The three-spoke steering wheel features a chrome horn ring and fronts an inoperative 140-mph speedometer and five-digit odometer. Total mileage is unknown. Aftermarket instrumentation consists of a central 8k-rpm tachometer flanked by gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, fuel level, and amperage.
The 350ci V8 was installed under previous ownership and is equipped with a Holley carburetor, an Edelbrock intake manifold, finned valve covers, exhaust headers, and an aluminum radiator.
Power is routed to the rear wheels via a polished Muncie four-speed manual transmission. A Flowmaster dual exhaust system is fitted.
