1961 CHEVROLET CORVETTE CONVERTIBLE
This Corvette Convertible is a perfect example of a survivor car that is worn in but not worn out. Retaining its original engine and all original body panels, this 1961 Corvette is a great original car that you wouldn?t be afraid to drive and use, yet it still retains value due to its rare options and the cool factor of mostly original paint and an unrestored chassis.
This Fuelie has just had its fuel injection unit rebuilt to perform like new, along with a complete service in our shop. It is one of only 924 Roman Red 1961 Corvettes built. With its Firestone blackwall tires and body color-matched wheels with dog dish hubcaps, this car really captures that vintage race car look.
As you can see in the photos, the car wears mostly original paint with some bumps and bruises, but it still shines nicely and has been well cared for over the years. With its T-10 4-speed manual transmission and 3.70 Positraction rear axle, this Corvette is a blast to driveand even more of a conversation piece than many of our restored Corvettes.

All dreams start with passion, and for Joe Verrillo, his passion has always been Corvettes and GM muscle cars. At age 17, he started a tiny shop called Classic Auto Sales and Service with just a handful of cars. The company quickly took off due to Joe’s persistence, hard work, and love of the great American muscle car, and was subsequently renamed Prestige Motor Car.
The Prestige name carried forward for nearly 40 years, and in 2019, the company was renamed Verrillo Motor Car in honor of its founder.
Today, more than 45 years later, Verrillo Motor Car Company is a leader in Corvette, specialty, and highline cars. With nearly a dozen employees, VMCC is carefully creating, caretaking and curating some of the finest C1, C2 and C3 Corvettes in the world, as well as buying, trading and selling very select, high-quality late model Corvettes and specialty cars. All vehicles are thoroughly inspected and serviced by the VMCC team of technicians. Verrillo Motor Car also offers service, detailing, reconditioning, award winning frame-off restorations, custom restomods, world-wide transportation, and creative financing and extended service options.
In recent years, Verrillo Motor Car has added consignment and brokerage services as well, creating new world-class sales and buying options for their customers.
Through the years, VMCC has had a number of their meticulously crafted Corvettes featured in national publications including Corvette Magazine, Super Chevy Magazine, Hemmings Motor News, Hemmings Muscle Machine, and ‘Vette Magazine.
Verrillo Motor Car is proud to be a founding member of the National Corvette Museum, an active and multi-award winning participant in the National Corvette Restorer’s Society and Bloomington Gold, and sponsor of such great organizations as The Saratoga Auto Museum and CAPTAIN Community Human Services.
