Corvette C1 Brandstofinjectie

- Batman thought he had created the Batmobile, but Corvette was first. -

A Corvette without the average plastic that we complain about when it's the lunchbox and a Corvette that was born without a V8. It all started in 1953 in New York during the Motorama Show, when the first C1 was shown to the public. Little did they know, a legend was born…

The first two years the legend status did not come, because with a 150 HP six-in-line and a two-speed automatic, it was already a slow 'sports car' for that time. Fortunately, the frame was quickly modified, so that a tight two years later there was room for a 4.3 liter V8. In 1957 ours was born; a 4.6 liter V8 with injection. She got almost twice as many kicking horses. That in combination with the manual transmission; Do. We. Need. To. Say. More.

Ours comes from a rather special nest; she comes from the Bouvries collection, where she formed a total picture of 'the most beautiful classics ever made', next to four other classics; according to Jan. The Ferrari Dino, the Jaguar Etype S1 OTS, the Volvo P1800 S, the Porsche 356 Speedster and of course the Chevrolet Corvette C1. We completely agree with the style legend of Dutch soil. Also funny; Everything at Jan's was white, except the classics. Those had to be black.

Our 'Fuel-e' was completely restored in the Netherlands a long time ago and was recently completely technically checked by our house specialist Lusso Classics. All invoices for this are also present, she is now really ready for many smiles a litre. A high-gloss black car with bright red leather interior and a manual gearbox. Miracles aren't our thing, but we're sure we can come to an arrangement.
