Details

Perhaps the most prestigious award a Corvette can receive is the Duntov -Mark Excellence Award. This Corvette received the coveted Duntov - Mark of Excellence Award at the NCRS National Convention. An owner must attain a judging score of at least 97% out of 100 % based on an original 'as manufactured' standard. It must also pass a performance test of all vehicle mechanical functions, all of which must operate as though it were a new car, without a single failure. Only a handful of Corvettes have had the honor to receive the coveted Chevy/Vettefest Triple Crown Award. This award verifies that the vehicle has been judged and met the highest standards by three of the most highly respected automobile restoration organizations including the NCRS (National Corvette Restorers Society) Top Flight, Bloomington Gold, and Chevy Vettefest Gold Spinner. This 1958 Corvette carries the highest accreditation from all three organizations and has attained the famed Triple Crown Award. In addition, this car has received the Chip Miller Chip's Choice Award at Carlisle and has received the Corvette Top Flight Award six times. It is powered by a matching numbers rare dual carb 270HP engine that was only available after mid-January of 1958. (Only 10% of Corvettes produced had this option.) Other options include a 4-speed transmission, hard and soft-tops, and the wonder-bar radio. A rare color combination of Regal Turquoise with white coves adorned the car. As a Corvette buyer, you should want the best available with the rarest and most desirable options. In addition you want the car that has been restored meticulously with the finest paint, highest quality chrome and perfect gaps and undercarriage. When you combine this with the aforementioned awards you have the finest 1958 Corvette in the world.
