The story behind this collectible...

Ambition is a dream with a V8 engine - Elvis Presley

It is the late fifties, at a time of great prosperity in America. Elvis shook his knees for the first time, Muhammed Ali his fists and Kennedy and Khrushchev fought over rockets. Americans loved (and still love) everything that has to do with ammunition, machine guns and rocket launchers. This is also how the inspiration for the name of an American legacy came about. A Corvette is a small, agile battleship with a relatively high impact force. There, the name of a legend was born. In our opinion, there are few Americans who can match the beauty of European greats from this era such as the E-type and 190SL. However, the Corvette C1 is a true beauty that can compete with the greats.

Our Chevrolet Corvette C1 was delivered to a fifties actor: Russel Thomas with beautiful Ermine White paint with fire-red leather interior. He sold it to his mother-in-law, and she sold it to her neighbors. Mothers-in-law… These neighbors have taken insane care of it for decades, and the ’Vette has even won awards! 60 years later and fully documented, and with the original ‘Cali plates’, the car is waiting for a new historian.
See you soon?

Miracles aren’t our thing, but we’re sure we can come to an arrangement.
