By 1957, Corvette was becoming a full fledged sports car! The true Convertible body had come in '56 and featured actual roll-up windows for the first time and a more user friendly convertible top. And by the following year the options and engines list was growing quite nicely! There were no less than six available power plants for '57 and one of the most popular was the 283ci with dual quad carbs and solid lifters. It put out 270hp, only 13hp less than the top dog Fuelie offered that year!
The local CA.example presented here has had an older frame on restoration and is equipped with that engine, as well as a 4-spd (added) manual transmission. It also has a 3.70 rear end, newer White soft top, wide White wall radial tires and brakes. It's a very clean car with excellent paint and interior. And the classic color combo of Polo White with Silver coves and Red interior is sharp and suits it to a "T". The engine runs strong and the transmission shifts great! It's the kind of vintage Corvette that you wouldn't hesitate to drive anywhere. And isn't that what owning a Corvette is really all about? And at this price, how could you refuse . . . ?
