We were damn lucky to see this Corvette get sold. It seems this year Speed TV has a knack of going to commercials just as a Corvette is crossing the auction block. So when the video starts you’ll see the bidding has already underway.

Lot Number 990.1 is a 1958 Corvette Convertible, Silver Blue with Silver Blue interior. Featuring a 283 ci 240 dual quad engine coupled to a T10 transmission, the Corvette has just 36,990 original miles. It has a very low production sequence number of #302. The numbers matching Corvette underwent a documented frame off restoration and has just 200 miles on her since completion.

The couple that won the bidding were very excited. The announcer says this is the fourth car he has purchased and his wife is still smiling!
