This 1960 Corvette Fuelie Is One of Just 11 Ever Built, Runs Like on Day One

And it’s all because only 11 Corvettes have ever been produced in this configuration in 1960, according to the folks over at Gateway Classic Cars, the garage in charge of selling it online. And as living proof in this regard, you’re getting extensive documentation, they say, including service records, old photos, title copies, and so much more.

The 1960 Chevrolet Corvette is powered by the original 283 engine (4.6-liter) that develops 315 horsepower and is paired to a 4-speed manual transmission.

In case you’re wondering how come a car this old looks so good, it’s all thanks to a thorough restoration that has already been completed. Unfortunately, we’re not being provided with too many details about this project, though it’s pretty clear from the photos of the car that it brought the Corvette back to day-one condition.

And what’s more, everything is there and working properly, so at the end of the day, you’re getting a 1960 Corvette that feels like it did when it just left the factory.

We're told the original owner gave up on the it in 1974, with the buyer then deciding to resell it after 23 years. The odometer indicates just 59,000 miles (94,950 km).

While it looks like no solid info is available in this regard, the garage selling the car speculates it is a Corvette that wasn’t available through the dealerships, and it was purchased either from the factory, by a company executive or was built for race teams.

Whatever the case, this is clearly a stunningly looking Corvette that’s the dream of many collectors out there. As for the price, you don’t expect it to come cheap, do you? Gateway Classic Cars sells it for $116,500.
