For Sale at Auction: 1963 Chevrolet Corvette in Scottsdale, Arizona

This custom 1963 Corvette was completed in November 2022 by Ken Sungela of Custom Restorations LLC. The Split-Window coupe body lines were preserved while incorporating numerous upgrades for added power, performance and driver comfort, including a Rothspeed custom performance chassis with their unique X-frame rail design, providing increased frame rigidity for added performance. Custom-tuned JRI coilover shocks provide 30 increments of ride control adjustability. The floors were lowered and pedal assembly moved forward for added driver comfort. The Dutchman IRS turns heavy-duty chromoly axle shafts through 3.73 gears out to C7 Corvette hubs and spindles. Stopping power is provided by an electrically assisted dual reservoir master cylinder and Wilwood Corvette-scripted calipers with drilled and slotted rotors. The engine is cooled with a Dewitts polished radiator and variable speed cooling fan for quieter operation. Stainless-steel headers feed the Jet Hot-coated side pipes, creating a "wake up the neighbors" exhaust rumble. A touch of a switch under the dash can redirect the exhaust to a custom-fabricated under-the-car system using 304 SS feeding Borla mufflers out the rear of the car for a milder exhaust note. The new GM LS3 engine generates over 500hp and is topped off with a Borla 8-stack injection system with polished trumpet stacks complemented by custom Corvette-scripted polished valve covers. A new GM 4L70E automatic overdrive transmission is connected to a driver adjustable controller for shift points, shift firmness and torque converted lockup. A Painless wiring harness/system was installed throughout the entire vehicle. The power lays down to the road with 18-inch front and 20-inch rear Schott Fuel wheels wrapped with red line performance tires. The silver metallic exterior paint is complemented by new and polished brightwork and billet hood grilles. Added features include power steering, power brakes, Detroit Speed headlight actuators, LED headlights and exterior lighting, a Vintage Air system, power windows, original design gauges with electronic functionality, carbon-fiber dash inlays, Billet Specialties steering wheel and a chrome Ididit tilt steering column. Polished billet Corvette-scripted door sills welcome the driver to the Adrenaline Red interior featuring C8 Corvette adjustable seats with three-point safety belts and leather-covered dash, door panels, console and window trim. The original radio was fitted with new electronics with Bluetooth connectivity powering Audison and Hertz speakers and amplifier. Included in the sale is complete operational and maintenance documentation.
