Tuxedo Black w/Red interior, 283/315hp, 4-Speed Manual Transmission

1961 was a turning point in Corvette history — the final year of the legendary 283ci engine, and it went out with a bang! Chevrolet offered five variations that year, from the mild-mannered 250hp single-quad to the fire-breathing, fuel-injected 315hp solid-lifter V8. And if you were hunting for the baddest, most exotic Corvette on the showroom floor, this was the one that made hearts race and wallets open!

The example offered here is nothing short of breathtaking. Finished in the ultra-desirable Tuxedo Black with Red interior, it’s undergone a no-expense-spared, frame-off restoration that leaves nothing to be desired. Under the hood, its numbers-matching, fuel-injected 283/315hp engine delivers the raw, high-revving punch that defined America’s sports car in its purest form — all funneled through a crisp 4-speed manual transmission.

Both hard and soft tops accompany the car, adding versatility and style. Its excellence in authenticity and condition has been recognized with the coveted NCRS Top Flight Award — proof that this Corvette isn’t just beautiful, it’s the real deal.

A rare combination of style, performance, and pedigree — this ’61 Corvette embodies the golden era of American performance.
Bold. Beautiful. Black. And absolutely unforgettable.
