That is a nice looking 1958 Corvette of the C1 generation. There is one other thing I noticed from the video. This 1958 Corvette is equipped with the 2 speed Powerglide Transmission. Since by this time Corvettes were being sold with a 3 speed manual or a 4 speed manual transmission, this car is likely to be a rare Corvette for the 1958 model year by having the Chevrolet Powerglide Transmission.

Probably from sitting a very long time if a car isn’t taken care of and sits for years untouched paint work last mechanical components will fail or need to be replaced. Especially if it was exposed to elements

Only had lap belts standard, the shoulder belts were still not required on convertibles and remained optional through 1975.

Luggage rack is not really functional but it OK in my book. I think it is strange that it does not have dual side view mirrors. That would certainly be functional. VN car

This brought me back in time. So, are you the current proud owner? Just a bit of trivia, notice there is no passenger-side rear view mirror. Well, back then you could have had one, but it was an option. Go figure. Shortly after 1971 all Corvettes came standard with two external rearview mirrors. Also, this was an early build. Save the Wave 👋
@truebetold656 ай бұрын
No actually after 72.
@thud97972 ай бұрын
The right chrome mirror became a dealer installed option in 73. And crazy but it was a long time before the Corvette had standard dual mirrors, 1979 to be exact and they were the painted bullet style. You could order these mirrors as a factory option beginning in 77 and they became standard mid way through the 79 model year.
