THE COLOR: yes, it's an original Corvette color. This 1962 Corvette Resto-Mod was painted Royal Heather Amethyst in tribute to the Tangier Shrine Patrol Corvette, one of the most rare production Corvettes ever produced. In 1962, Bunky Knudsen, head of GM's design division, allowed Omaha's Tangier Shrine Club to select any GM color for their special-order Corvettes, of which 10-15 were ordered directly from GM each year. In 1962, the Shriners chose Royal Heather Amethyst, an original metallic color offered on Cadillac models. Only 13 of the 1962 Tangier Shrine Patrol Corvettes were ever produced under central office production order ("COPO"). The only original surviving example of these models was on display at the National Corvette Museum for a number of years, on loan from its owners. The owner of this Corvette owned one of the original Shrine Patrol Corvettes in 1966. Not knowingly its rarity, he soon traded it for a GTO. He chose to pay homage to the original Shrine Patrol Corvettes by re-creating the original one he had "way back then" in this car. See "The Corvette Black Book" for more information on these ultra-rare 'Vettes. GOES WITH THE SALE: original wheels, wheel covers, steering wheel, steering column (with gearbox), front suspension (with discs installed and drums included) and many other original parts. The owner has documented receipts showing over $87k spent on this car. You can own it for far less. Buy it and enjoy it or take it to Barrett-Jackson and sell it for $100k+.
