Lot # 270 1955 Chevrolet Corvette Roadster, S/N VE55S001118, Engine #
0118553F55FG, Red/Beige vinyl, Being cloth top, Estimate $120,000 to
$150,000, Older restoration, 2 condition, Hammered Sold at $127,500 plus
commission of 10.00 percent. Final Price $140,250 No Reserve. 265/195hp,
Powerglide, pushbutton radio (not Wonder Bar), heater, wheel covers, whitewalls,
side curtains. Bloomington Gold certified and NCRS Duntov award winner.
Restored like new a while ago. Paint, chrome, interior and engine are still
excellent but underbody and chassis are dusty. A thorough detailing could
bring this Corvette back to show quality condition.

1955 marks the beginning of the V-8 Corvette era, combined with the original
Corvettes roadster body and body design. With only 700 built, they are
impressively rare, at least as rare and significant as this price indicates.
