Vehicle Description
A red Corvette convertible is something we all love, so it's great
to see this one is fantastically rosy inside and out. But more than
just looks, this 1963 Chevrolet Corvette convertible has been given
the right upgrades - from fuel-injection to four-wheel discs - so
that it can be the first-year Sting Ray you've always wanted.
This car is a true iconic American. A red Sting Ray gives every one
of us the fantasy of cruising a car hop for late night burgers, and
then parting the midnight air with the sounds of breaking in fresh
asphalt. And '63 is one of the most desirable body styles. After
all, it was the first year for the C2. It carries plenty of shining
brightwork on the two-piece bumpers, rocker trim, window surrounds,
and faux hood louvers (a hallmark of the early C2s.) We all love
the look of the correct reproduction knock-off wheels. The black
roof looks crisp, so this Sting Ray even looks good with the top in
place.
While we like the look of the black roof, nothing beats the style
that comes from putting the top down. After all, this is a
factory-correct red on red package. There's a sea of scarlet on the
carpets, bucket seats, and dash. It's even color-matched on the
grippy three-spoke steering wheel that is truly worthy of a vintage
sports car. This a great classic feeling everywhere from the large
speedo and tach, to the grasp of the stick shift. So you instantly
know this is a driver's classic the moment you slip behind the
wheel.
Under the hood is a true legend. It's the 327 cubic-inch V8 with
the unmistakable look of a Rochester fuel injection unit on top.
This was not born a fuelie, but instead upgraded about a decade ago
when this car was restored. It means you can get the look and feel
of a proper FI Sting Ray while saving thousands $$$$. As you look
over the car, you're also going to see an upgrade to four-wheel
disc brakes - something that wasn't available until later C2s. So
you really get the best of everything the C2 had to offer in this
desirable first-year package. Remember, you're looking at the first
year the Corvette offered the fully independent sports suspension.
Plus, the V8 has muscle to spare, and the four-speed manual
transmission put you in complete control of the power and great
dual exhaust soundtrack.
The right colors, the right upgrades, and the right price - you
know you don't want to let this Sting Ray slip away. Call now!
