For sale in our Chicago showroom is this beautiful 1962 Chevrolet
Corvette. 1962, being the last year of the C2 generation, has all
of the improvements learned throughout the generation. Powered by
the numbers-matching 327 cubic inch small block V8, this is a peppy
little sports car. With drivability being an important factor, the
4-speed manual was replaced with a more highway-friendly Tremec
5-speed manual. The improvements were threefold; the new
transmission shifts significantly smoother than the archaic
4-speed, acceleration is improved due to the steeper gearing, and
the overdrive 5th gear allows for much better gas mileage and
highway cruising. Parked on all 4 corners are a set of American
Racing chrome rims, 14"s up front with 15"s out back, which shine
just as bright as the Roman Red paint. Both the hard top and soft
top are in great condition, and the glass is in great shape with no
cracks or chips. The black vinyl interior shows great, with no
tears, split seams, or discoloration. Fire up this sporty small
block, slip the transmission into first, and rumble around with a
barrage of "thumbs-up" and waves from other motorists. With a
classic style, all the right colors, and a look that screams "Hot
Wheels," this is one slick Corvette. Options include: AM/FM/CD
Player, Manual Convertible Top, Seat Belts, Vinyl Interior, Radial
Tires, and Alloy Wheels. For more information, contact our Chicago
