265 210hp single 4 barrel, 3 speed, engine dressup, Wonderbar radio. Restored to a touring standard and 3,700 (hard) miles since.

Market commentary

This is a generous result for any 55 Vette and really generous for this one, even with its 3 speed, a very rare complement to the V8 engine. With two 55s sold at B J, both for about $50,000, our expectations may need adjustment.
