I purchased this car in New Hampshire February of 2004. Venetian Red with a White cove. 283C.I. 270 H.P. Duntov Cam with solid lifters and dual carbs. Only 1,621 produced like this. It has a 3 speed manual transmission, (4-speed not available unit April of '57) this car was built late November 1956. Older restoration that was not very well maintained. The next 7 yrs was spent bringing it back to originality. Steering box rebuilt, original radiator re-cored and put back on, rebuilt the water pump, master cylinder sleeved, front and rear bumpers re-chromed and tail lights, stainless buffed, convertible top replaced, new windshield installed, new clutch installed, original radio put back in, wiper motor rebuilt, heater valve rebuilt, hood latches cadmium plated, rebuilt engine, dual carbs rebuilt, put correct starter on, correct fuel pump, correct voltage regulator, correct rear spring installed. Plus many misc. items corrected. In 2011 NCRS judging it received 1st Flight Award. Receiving 95.3% I have taken the car to Michigan Woodward Dream Cruise the last 16 years and to Corvette of Carlisle almost as many. I love driving the car and try to get to as many shows as I can
