1961 Chevrolet Corvette Fuelie – “Vanity”

We are proud to present “Vanity,” a truly exquisite 1961 Corvette Fuelie that stands among the finest examples on the market today. Fresh from a comprehensive frame-off restoration completed in 2024, this C1 earned NCRS Top Flight honors that same year with an outstanding 96.1-point score — a testament to its authenticity, correctness, and uncompromising quality. Finished in Roman Red with Ermine White coves over a rich red interior, this is a benchmark restoration for the discerning collector. Every classic deserves a name, and “Vanity” was the only choice for this Little Red Corvette.

  • 4.11 Positraction rear end for eager acceleration and confident, planted traction
  • Date-code-correct OEM components fitted during restoration, including the starter, generator, expansion tank, exhaust, windshield washer system, fan and fan clutch — non-OEM parts were replaced to preserve absolute authenticity

  • Correct, well-detailed cabin reflecting the same meticulous standard applied throughout the restoration
  • An uninstalled aftermarket Bluetooth Wonderbar radio is included for optional modern convenience — original presentation preserved
