This gorgeous Vette has been body off frame restored. Correct 340
hp motor and it runs strong. From a private Corvette collection.
The "Split Window" is the most iconic Corvette and does nothing but
go up in value!
EXTERIOR: The 62-67 Vettes are one of the few cars where the coupe
is worth more than a convertible; that's because of its good looks.
In 63 a coupe adds $100,000+ in value! Its one year split window
design has become very iconic. Overall, very nice body with no
damage and good fit. Painted a gorgeous dark burgundy metallic. It
presents itself real nice but does have minor imperfections. The
headlights open and close properly. Weatherstrips were replaced.
Overall, the chrome is straight and shiny. The emblems, bow tie
mirror and hood inserts are new. New set of knock off wheels and
radial redline tires. Just installed and balanced.
INTERIOR: The saddle color is really rich looking. It has genuine
leather upholstery. The door panels and all its trim looks new.
Clean gauges are all working. It has correct 6500 redline
tachometer for a 340 hp motor. New dash pads. A retro stereo fits
in the factory hole. The console is very nice, it has switches for
the power windows. Carpet was replaced front to back. Headliner was
replaced.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It has a correct 327 with optional 340 hp. The
casting and stamped codes are correct. It is restored to original
condition. Being ac340 hp it has an aluminum intake, finned valve
covers, a unique air cleaner and deep groove pulleys so the belts
don't fly off at high RPMs. It has a proper carb, fuel line, filter
and choke tube. The cooling system is proper- the radiator, shroud,
expansion tank etc. It has the complete ignition shielding. All the
components look clean and proper. It's cleaned up and painted
really nice.
UNDERSIDE: It has been body off frame restored. The front and rear
independent suspension has been completely rebuilt. The steering is
rebuilt. Upgraded front sway bar. Factory type dual exhaust system
with the polished slash cut tips going through the valance. The
brake system has been restored. Brake lines, e-brake cables, hoses
were replaced. Looking up at the motor it is clean. It has the
correct starter, fuel pump and lower ignition shielding. Muncie M20
4-speed trans looks fresh. The rear end also looks fresh, it has
3.70 posi. The frame is rock solid painted semi glass black.
Original fiberglass floors look to be in excellent shape. It has
the spare tire carrier and spare.
SERVICE: We inspected the car and serviced it. We rebuilt the carb,
set the timing, replaced the fuel gauge, replaced a headlight door
motor, calibrated the speedometer, replaced temp sending unit and
gauge, gave it a 4 wheel alignment, lubed and adjusted window
track, serviced the brake pedal and adjusted the exhaust because of
a rattle. We also bought, balanced, and installed a new set of
knock off wheels and radial redline tires.
CONCLUSION: The split window is such a good investment. It's not
just sought after by the Corvette experts; it appeals to the
masses. This one is a gorgeous example.
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.
