1957 250 HP Corvette project with clean title and vin plate, vin number E 57 S 103872, just out of longterm climate controlled storage in Texas, the car was disassembled for restoration decades ago and never completed, includes valid Texas title with original vin plate, solid Texas frame that appears to have been restored year ago, '548 block dated D 17, '997 heads dated B 187, Saginaw 3-speed transmission, shifter, exhaust manifolds (GM part numbers 3733975 and 3733976), tach drive generator, ignition shielding, valve covers, front and rear suspension including front crossmember, rear banjo, upper and lower A-arms, coil springs, drag link, leaf springs, etc, rear differential (GM part number 3725899, dated B 137), Harrison radiator with core support, steering column with attached steering box, new hub capswith new spinners, wide white wall tires, new date coded windshield (not pictured), bumpers and stainless trim as shown, front headlight trim rings, new upper windshield header and both left and right windshield posts, original grill bar and teeth , original seat cushions (seat frames are MIA), original door panels (will require restoration), gauges including the speedometer, tachometer, oil pressure, temperature fuel and battery, original waterfall console stainless trim, glove box door on hinges, deck lid stainless trim, steering wheel, original door sills (both the long and short sections), new transmission tunnel, brake pedal assembly, cowl vent arm, emergency brake arm, hood pull, cigarette lighter, heater assembly, windshield wiper motor, windshield wiper arms, wiper motor drum,

original convertible soft top frame (frame is disassembled and requires restoration), door hardware

and door hinges, cowl vent, hood hinges and hood catches / latches / locks, deck lid / trunk hinge tower and much more. 90% of the fiberglass is original (my rough estimate). The car will require minor fiberglass work to secure and repair the new nose & front fenders to the car which were damaged in transit (the areas taped with light red colored tape and forward are new fiberglass).

The door hinges are included but the doors are not presently hinged (hence, the poor alignment in the pictures) and the doors are secured with bungee cords. I believe the original color of the car was Venetian Red. The car rolls and steers for easy transport. Additional pictures are forthcoming...
