283 cc 315 hp Fuel Injection

Fully restored numbers matching 1961 Corvette Roadster, actory fuel injection, ower windows, ptionalhardtop (1961 date coded windows) andheater. The black softtop isa newinstall. The restoration was frame off and included theentire undercarriage, aint,chrome,emblems, nterior,exhaust,brakes,shocks, prings and tires. The entire front end assembly (control arms and bushing),clutch press plate and throw out bearingare new. The front end was just aligned and the wheel bearing packed and everything checked out fine, here is no vibration in the wheelor pulling.There is about an inch of side-to-side play in the steering column. You could eat your lunch off the undercarriage. The restoration wasdone between 2007 and 2008 (receipts).The car does not havewindshield washers. You tube links are listed below.

The fuel injection unit was completely rebuilt in 2016 with all new parts calibrated to factory specifications by Lyle Davidson of Davidson Restorationin Leesburg, a. (receipt and documentation). Davidson Restoration also inspected and detrmined that the car is an original factory fuel injection. Letter documents everything inspected in making thatdetermination. During restoration the cargot a complete new front end clip. The ownertold me via e-mail (copy in file) that there was sagging but the car had not been in an accident. Davidson Restoration documented the quality of the replacement and made the following statements, the construction and craftsmanship of this front end are tasteful and within the top 95% of those that I've observed to be installed correctly to include installation ofbonding strips." "The restoration used many NOS and or period correct pieces to construct, nd a remarkable amount of craftsmanship went into it." "Engine ID stamp on passenger side of block has not been manipulated in any way to include correct factory broaching marks and remarkable stamp."The engine ID number matches the VIN number on the tag on the steering column.

The car has a new speedometer, nd quartz clockinstalled in 2015. The hardtop hasa new windshieldweather strip. All gauges work well and illuminate including the emergency brake and high beam indicators dash lights and all exterior lights,turn signals and license plate lights. I have the original clock (not working), peaker (working) andwonderbar radio (workingbut dark). The radio that is installed is a 100% looking replica with the exception that it has FM and an Ipod jack.The FMnumbers arerecessedin the dial and not seen without looking into the dial face. To kept period correct the electronics were adopted so to switch between AM/FM/Ipod you simplyturn the radio on and off quickly and an indicator light in the dial changes colors for each option. The car has a matching white wall spare tire, riginal sissor jack, rank handle, ug wrenchand OptionalGM Emergency Tool Kit (includes all Drop Forge tools - 2wrenches for hardtop, ne for the spare tire board,pliers, lat head screw driver and hammer). The spare tire board hasGM factory jack instructions andpositive traccaution decals. The engine has all the proper decalsincluding the GM paint care stickerinside the glove box door. I have all previous titles back to 1981, s well as all the restorationand maintenance receipts.Includes fouroriginal GM keys. The car has a clear title.
