#s match, documented 340 hp, factory red/red! Only 1,040 miles on a
body off frame restoration, documented with photos. Special ordered
by Roland Pavlik at Jim Connell Chevrolet. We have the order form,
window sticker, warranty booklet and other miscellaneous docs.
EXTERIOR: Stunning red two topper! I think it's probably better
than when it left the factory. The body is pristine, I didn't see
any body work or cracks. It fits really nice, doors shut like new.
The headlights open and close, correct T-3 bulbs. Factory Riverside
Red, code 923, and it's polished like glass. The chrome, emblems,
and trim sparkles. It was ordered with a removable red hardtop that
is completely restored. The black convertible top is completely
restored. Correct spinner hubcaps look like new. It's riding on BFG
radial redline tires.
INTERIOR: The red interior is just as striking! According to the
trim tag it was born this way, code 490M. It is spotless. Carpet
looks new front to back. The dash pads, correct glovebox door and
all the gauges look like new. The seats were recushioned and
upholstered. New door panels, armrests and knobs. The console,
steering wheel, visors all look fresh. It is all correct- shifter,
radio, reproduction mats etc.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: VIN #s matching, correct casting coded and
dated motor. It is the 327 with optional 340 hp. This is a very
potent engine and typically more reliable than the fuel injection
engine. As compared to the 300 horsepower it came with a bigger
harmonic balancer, forged domed pistons, solid lifter cam, swirled
intake valves, hardened tip pushrods and crank journals, dual point
distributor, bigger alternator pulley and dressed in aluminum
finned valve covers. This motor compartment is restored like it
left the factory. Correct fuel filter and lines, choke tube, air
cleaner and ignition shielding. It has correct deep groove pulleys,
spring clamp battery cables and dated overflow bottle. It's
detailed to show quality. Every component looks fresh and
correct.
UNDERSIDE: The body was off the frame and under this car was
rebuilt and detailed. It looks fresh! First year for front and rear
independent suspension. All the steering and suspension looks
rebuilt. The brakes were gone through. Brake lines, hoses and
e-brake cables are hooked up. Factory type dual exhaust with the
slash cut tips going through the valance. Looking up at the motor
it is clean, has correct starter and canister type oil filter.
Correct orange overspray on the bell housing. VIN #s matching,
correctly dated T-10 4-speed trans looks fresh. Correct 1963 rear
end with 3.70 gears. The fiberglass floors and spare tire carrier
look to be in excellent shape.
This is an exceptional Corvette. It's very detailed throughout,
fits right with excellent finishes. #s matching and documented
justifies why you should buy it, it's an investment. The red on
red, 340 hp with a 4-speed is why you want to buy it!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to
assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are
answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video
that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are
displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an
appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment
there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car,
your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year
membership.
