1958 Chevrolet Corvette Fuelie Description

1958 Corvette Fuelie Fully Restored Charcoal/Red Gorgeous
I am pleased to offer this gorgeous 1958 Corvette fuelie. This award winning Corvette is a beautiful example of the ’58 fuelie with it’s charcoal gray exterior with red interior (doesn’t get better than that in my opinion). Only 13 or so miles since complete restoration. VIN # is J58S104802. Sold new at New Capital City Chevrolet in Sacramento, CA.
– 2009 Top Flight Award (NCRS)
– 2009 Bloomington Gold Certified
– Includes window sticker and NCRS judging sheet
Details:
The 1958 model was the only Corvette to feature the “washboard” hood and attractive chromed trunk spears; it was also the first appearance of the quad headlights that became a Corvette trademark. Only 1,631 1958 Corvettes were produced in rare Charcoal. This 1958 Chevrolet Corvette from the Larry Gerig Collection is one of the 729 produced in that one-year-only color in combination with Silver coves and, judging by its production number, one of the last before the transition to Tuxedo Black. In fact, Larry Gerig has concluded that the car was produced during the implementation of the second production group. This is indicated by the presence of the later production left-hand hood support in combination with the early production small round hole for the tach cable drive. A Red interior, Black soft top, wide Whitewall tires and full-size spinner wheel covers complete this car’s stunning cosmetics. Its restoration was completed by Mr. Gerig, where the attention to detail was recognized with a brilliant score of 99.3 at the Bloomington Gold show in July 2009 and 98.6 for an NCRS Top Flight award the same year. A radio- and heater-delete example, like its stable mates from Larry Gerig’s fabulous Corvette collection, the car is equipped with the code-579D 283/290 HP Rochester fuel-injected small-block V-8 backed by a Borg Warner 4-speed manual transmission.
