Triple Black, Retro-Cool, 1959 Corvette, Big Brake "Street Racer". This frame-off restored retro "Street Racer" was professionally built by restoration shop owner as his prize possession. It is triple black: black paint and cove, black interior and reconditioned black hardtop. It was frame off restored with no expense spared. Show quality tuxedo black paint professionally sprayed over a very well preserved fiberglass body with original bonding strips intact, new bumpers front and back, new door post, windshield post and and windshield, new door handles and emblems front and back. This radical roadster was built with performance in mind, the entire drive line was rebuilt front to back. The original 283/230hp engine was bored out and rebuilt to 300hp mated to a new 5-speed Tremec manual transmission, a positraction rear end with 355 gears, new wiring harness, new brakes, new fuel system, new radiator, new rebuilt suspension, original magneto style distributor, new ignition shielding, correct Corvette script valve covers, air cleaner and new heavy duty Flomaster exhaust for that muscle car sound. Gorgeous black (mostly new) interior including new seat covers, new seat foam, new dash pad, new deluxe door panels with new stainless trim, new black Daytona carpet, new restored dash and gauges and heavy duty tall shifter replacing the original smaller shifter. Like many high performance cars, this is a radio, heater and soft top delete car.
