1957 Chevrolet Corvette

1957 Corvette. 283 cid, 2x4 bbl, automatic. Nice, mostly original car. A nice driver.NOT numbers matching. I will list what I know about the numbers. I am not a pro Corvette buyer or seller. I am a hobbiest who loves this particular year Corvette. I bought this car in Jan. 2009. Probably driven it less than 400 miles. I am selling because I have 9 Corvettes, 5 of which need work and I need to make some garage space.Do have Hard Top and Hood. I leave the hood off as this makes it easier to charge battery, check fluids, etc. Hard Top should probably be restored as weatherstripping is old.Convertible top is OK. I leave it up, not latched, when car is parked. Very tight and may need some stretching to work properly.
Repairs I have done or had done:Engine rebuilt (Dubose Machine)Transmission, cast iron Powerglide, rebuilt (A-1 Transmission)Rebuilt Tachometer (Ecklers)New carpet and hush matRadiatorWater PumpHeater CoreHeater BoxHeater HosesTrunk linerOil Filter conversion to spin onHood Release Cable
Numbers I know:Engine block: 3731548Differential: 3725899Intake Manifold: 3739653Generator: 1102043
Car is a nice driver, looks good from 10 ft. Frame is nice. No rust or damage that I can see.Car needs a few things as do most of these old vettes:WeatherstrippingPaint touch up ( see pics )Door adjustmentConvertible top adjustmentChrome could use some polishingProbably other things I have missed
