Not often do we run across cars that look this good and perform as
good as they look. This 1962 Corvette is finished in what is
thought to be the best color combination of that year. The well
restored outside is further complimented by a perfect red interior.
From there all gauges including the clock function as they should.
Roll the correct LOF windows down and put down the correct white
convertible top and your ready to turn heads absolutely everywhere
you go. Turn the key the and the 340 HP 327 fires immediately with
its snappy solid lifter cam. A run through gears tells you
everything you need to know about this car. It is right. Once warm
it runs flawlessly to 6000 + RPM into second gear. At 60 mph it
goes down the road straight. Down shift into second and the let off
the gas and it does not pop out of gear like most worn out older
T10 transmissions. Hit the brakes and even on its correct bias ply
tires it stops perfectly straight. The steering is as tight as they
come. Clearly the mechanical restoration on this car is a superb as
the stunning cosmetic restoration.
From there the correctness of the car stands out. With very few
reproduction parts this car retains much of its originality. It
retains the original numbers matching engine. If you are in the
market for a '62 340HP simply look no further. Someone spent a lot
of money to restore this car, you don't need to. To buy a decent
one and restore it to this level would likely cost you $175,000
plus. Or you can jump in this one and enjoy it today and drive it
anywhere!
