California Car, 45,000 Miles, Believed to be 3 owner's.

Offered for sale is an outstanding 1959 Chevrolet Corvette Fuel Injected (Fuelie), finished in factory-correct Fawn Beige with Black coves—a rare and elegant combination that beautifully accentuates the timeless design of this American classic.
Powered by its original 283 cubic inch V8 with Rochester fuel injection, mated to a 4-speed manual transmission, this Corvette delivers strong, smooth performance and represents the pinnacle of Corvette engineering for its era. The odometer shows just 45,000 original miles, believed accurate and supported by long-term ownership records and documentation.
This Corvette is believed to have had just three documented owners since new. The first two were based in California, with the second owner keeping the vehicle for over 20 years. Historical documentation from his ownership is included, tracing the car's provenance and further affirming its originality.
In 2005, the car received a high-quality restoration that has held up exceptionally well. In 2009, it was NCRS judged, receiving a strong score of 93.6, a testament to its authenticity, correctness, and condition. Full NCRS documentation and judging sheets are included with the car.
Equipped with both hard and soft tops, this Corvette is well-suited for both showing and spirited driving. A special historical touch is the original metal license plate bracket from Harry Mann Chevrolet, the famed Los Angeles-based Corvette dealership known for its legacy in the Corvette community.
Most recently, the vehicle was thoroughly evaluated by Richard Novia of Terminal Velocity, a highly respected Corvette expert and past NCRS judge. Novia described the car as a “top shelf driver”, estimating its current market value between $96,000 and $140,000 based on its originality, documented mileage, restoration quality, and provenance. This evaluation is available to all potential buyers.
This is a rare opportunity to own a well-preserved, NCRS-judged 1959 Corvette Fuelie with 45,000 original miles, matching numbers, dual tops, and a known history tied to one of the most iconic Corvette dealerships. Whether you're a collector or a true enthusiast, this Corvette is ready to be driven, shown, and appreciated for the classic it is.
