Lot #655 - The Chevrolet Corvette offered here is a very rare 1955, as they
only built 700 that year. A fresh restoration to very high standards was done in
Harvest Gold paintwork, complemented by a yellow interior, a green canvas
convertible top and correct body-color wheels. The Corvette is powered by a
265cid small block V8 mated to a Powerglide 2-speed transmission. Other
features include a heater/defroster and a signal-seeking radio. This Corvette
has achieved all of the top awards afforded an earlier Corvette. The Duntov
Award by NCRS in 2010 with a National Top Flight, a Regional Performance
Verification in 2008, a Regional Top Flight in 2008 and a Chapter Top Flight in
2006. Bloomington Gold gave it its highest award in 2008. The AACA gave it a
National First in October at Hershey. This is your chance to own a very rare,
hard to restore, one of Best of the Best Harvest Gold 1955 Corvettes.
Restoration completed by Marquis Auto Restoration in Philadelphia, PA.
