1959 Corvette three-speed, four-speed, and Powerglide transmission range

transmission · Chevrolet

Reviewed factory-specification card summarizing the 1959 Corvette engine range, transmissions, axle ratios, suspension, and brakes. 1959 Chevrolet Corvette

Why It Matters

A three-speed manual was standard for 1959. Chevrolet also offered the two-speed Powerglide and a close-ratio four-speed with a first-year T-handle reverse lockout. Engine pairing, case, date, linkage, shifter, and history should support a car-specific claim.
