It’s a beautifully presented driver with tasteful upgrades and timeless curb appeal. This ’61 wears its Roman Red paint proudly—deep, glossy, and set off perfectly by the contrasting white coves and thin whitewall tires mounted on correct steel wheels with factory-style hubcaps. Both the removable painted hardtop and the white soft top are in excellent condition, allowing for year-round enjoyment, whether you prefer top-down cruising or the coupe look. Inside, the car features a black vinyl interior, complete with factory-style bucket seats, a classic dual-cockpit dash, and all the charming details that make first-generation Corvettes so special.
