1954 Chevrolet Corvette — Rare Factory Black — Original Red
Interior — $70,000
One of the very few 1954 Corvettes that left Chevrolet’s factory
in black, retaining its original red interior and original
numbers-matching engine block and drivetrain.
This car was born black. It retains its original interior, and
black overspray remains visible beneath the carpeting—physical
evidence that prospective buyers are welcome to inspect. The
precise number of black Corvettes produced in 1954 remains
debated, but this car belongs to that exceptionally small group.
Black over the original red interior, with wide whitewalls,
chrome wheel covers, and screened headlights, gives it a
distinctive presence even among early Corvettes.
Details:
* Factory-black car.
* Original red interior.
* Original numbers-matching 235-cu.-in. Blue Flame six-cylinder
engine block.
* Triple Carter carburetors.
* Powerglide automatic transmission and original drivetrain.
Cylinder-head disclosure: the car has a standard Chevrolet 235
head with a 1954 date code, rather than the Corvette-specific
head casting. The original engine block remains in the car.
I have owned this Corvette for approximately three years. Its
factory-black color, original interior, and original drivetrain
were central to why I bought it.
Located in the Huntsville, Alabama area. In-person viewing and
independent pre-purchase inspections are welcome by appointment.
Additional photographs and specific details available upon
request.
Asking $70,000. No trades. Bank transfer preferred.
