Exceptional Attention To Detail

This 1959 Chevrolet Corvette 283/270HP “Dual Quad” Roadster is finished in the stunning color combination of Panama Yellow with Snowcrest White coves, a black interior, and a white folding convertible top, completing this exceptional example. This particular car was the recipient of a meticulous restoration completed in February 2025.

This 1959 Corvette is distinguished by its solid-lifter 270HP “Dual Quad” 283ci V8 engine. Only 1,846 270HP Dual Quad cars were built for the 1959 model year. This Corvette is also equipped with a parking brake alarm, heater, AM/FM radio, 4-speed manual transmission, and whitewall tires.

The recent professional restoration was completed in a methodical fashion with high attention to detail and functionality of all components. This Corvette rides on Coker Classic wide whitewall tires and features polished full-face wheel covers with two-bar spinner center caps. As part of the restoration, the brake and fuel systems were fully rebuilt, making this Corvette an outstanding driving experience. All chrome and brightwork present exceptionally well. A show-quality paint job enhances the striking appearance of this Corvette.

The interior features new carpeting with matching floor mats, a restored instrument cluster, a new AM/FM radio, and a restored center climate control panel.

The engine features restored 4x2 carburetors sitting on a reskinned GM Winters aluminum intake manifold. The correct finned valve covers have a restored finish with accurate 270HP decals, as new. A restored 1102043 Delco-Remy generator, dated 9B6, is the correct unit for this Corvette. Highly polished ignition shielding completes the engine compartment.
