This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette presents itself in its original color
combination, Sebring Silver Metallic exterior paint over dark blue
interior with white vinyl soft with and coordinating factory hard
top. It is powered by its 327 CID / 250 HP V8, 4 speed Muncie
manual transmission and rear wheel drive. Some vehicle highlights
include AM/FM Delco radio, bucket seats, classic 3 spoke teak
steering wheel, 160 MPH speedometer, 7000 RPM tach, knock off
turbine style aluminum wheels, white wall tires, clock etc.
The car was purchased new at Twin City Chevrolet of Benton Harbor,
MI and accompanied written history indicates 5 owners from new, 25
years under its current ownership. Today, the car has undergone a
selective style, older restoration retaining its original color
combination with efforts of keeping the car correct and stock. This
Corvette overall presents very well and attractive in all areas, it
appears that the Corvette was selectivly restored back in the late
80's / early 90's and has been cared for since. The refurbishment
has held up well with proper patina setting in evenly across the
car. The paint remains deep and glossy with a few expected minor
flaws, the hard top does have a few nicks here and there as one
would expect, the headliner appears to be original. The interior
bright work, console, dash fascia and gauges appear to be original,
the steering wheel is wonderful, and the carpet and upholstery are
clean and free from major wear and tear. Under the hood all
components appear correct from the 327 V8, heads, manifolds,
aluminum valve covers to the dual snorkel air cleaner, ignition
shielding, aluminum expansion tank, clamps and hardware. The
underside of the car is clean, highly original and shows very
well.
1963 was a major design change for the Corvette, not only in style,
but also in performance. The long tapered hood with the hid-a-way
headlights became a signature mark of the corvette that stuck with
the car for generations. 1963 was the first year of the "Mid-Year"
Corvette which remains among the most sought after cars on the
planet. The car here is a wonderful example that has recorded
history since new, has always been intact and properly looked
after. Sebring Silver over Dark Blue is a great color combination
for this car and is one that you do not see often on a roadster.
Midyear Corvettes are timeless and will always be a blue chip
automotive investment. This car is worthy of serious
consideration.
