Available for your bidding consideration is my 1963 Chevrolet Corvette convertible. As an American icon, the corvette needs no introduction. Since the 1950's these cars have been pushing the limits in both styling and performance. 1963 brought a new look, new styling, and several single year only features to the corvette. The car you see here has stood the test of time and is a remarkable example of what the 63 vette was when they were introduced. This car is powered by its MATCHING NUMBERS 327 V8 backed by the MATCHING NUMBERS Muncie 4 speed manual trans. The rear end is a posi traction unit of which I was told is original to the car, but I have not verified that. The motor and trans are absolutely without question authentic and original to this vette. These cars are getting very difficult to find in this condition that haven't had a 350 swap, or had the 327 bored stroked and hot rodded. The underbody is as beautiful as the rest of the car and is truly a time capsule. Along with the original motor and trans, this car is equipped with the correct intake, carb, master cylinder, original radio AND speaker, all original gauges, and many many other parts that this car was born with. With just under 80,000 original miles, there isn't much to want that this vehicle doesn't offer. All the carpet is in beautiful condition, the seats are flawless, the top is brand new (still has original bows and hardware, just new canvas and window), the motor purrs like a kitten, and the trans shifts as smooth as glass. The paint is the original color, laguna blue, but is obviously not the original paint job. The body is in great condition and laser straight. All gaps and panel alignment is beautiful throughout the car. The car currently rides on a nice set of radials (drives and handles like a dream) but I do have poly tires available for it if you desire. I really can not say enough about how much I like this car, and the condition it is in. The paint is incredible and it sparkles and shines every bit as much as you want it to! The body lines and finesse to the early to mid 60s vettes are among the greatest in the history of automobiles. This is really a turn key car that you can enjoy as much as you like and be confident taking it to any show nationwide and not be ashamed to park it next to anything else there. I assure you that you'll be holding your head high and nodding as all the onlookers smile, honk, and give thumbs up. Weather it be at your local shows, cruise nights, the dairy queen, grocery store, or a national level event this car will get compliments. All the chrome is in excellent condition and is a great accent to the deep metallic blue on this beauty. If you've been in the vette market and your hunting for that special car , I urge you to take a close look at what is for sale here. Don't sit back and miss the opportunity to buy this car with all the original components it contains. This is absolutely an investment grade piece of automotive history, and we all know the prices and values are back on the incline.
