Description:

This 1961 Chevrolet Corvette was refurbished under prior ownership and acquired us in July 2023. Subsequent work consisted of honing the valve guides, performing a valve job, resurfacing the cylinder heads, installing a PerTronix Ignitor and Flame-Thrower ignition coil, and replacing the head gaskets, intake manifold gaskets, valve cover gaskets, and exhaust manifold gaskets. Power is provided by a fuel-injected 283ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission and the car is finished in red with white coves over black vinyl upholstery. Equipment includes a white soft top, 15″ steel wheels, whitewall tires, simulated knock-off wheel covers, split chrome bumpers, and a digital cassette stereo.

Interior:

The black vinyl seats are faired into the rear bodywork and complemented by a color-coordinated dash pad, carpets, and door panels. Interior elements include a dash-mounted rearview mirror, a digital cassette stereo, and rubber floor mats. The analog clock does not work. The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 6,600-rpm redline as well as gauges for coolant temperature, amperage, oil pressure, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 50k miles.

Exterior:

The fiberglass body has been repainted in its current combination of red with white coves. Details include a white soft top, quad headlights and taillights, split chrome bumpers, and a driver-side mirror.

Drivetrain:

The 283ci V8 features a Rochester mechanical fuel-injection system, a high-lift camshaft, and Corvette-script valve covers. Work under current ownership consisted of honing the valve guides, performing a valve job, resurfacing the cylinder heads, installing a PerTronix Ignitor and Flame-Thrower ignition coil, and replacing the head gaskets, intake manifold gaskets, valve cover gaskets, and exhaust manifold gaskets. The stamping on the engine pad is shown in the gallery. The CS suffix is consistent with a 283ci V8 rated at 315 horsepower and designated for a 1961 Corvette with Rochester mechanical fuel injection, a high-lift camshaft, and a manual transmission. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. Steel 15″ wheels feature simulated knock-off covers and are mounted with Firestone Deluxe Champion whitewall tires. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel drums.
