1963 Corvette Convertible | 327-340HP V8 | 4 Speed Manual | Factory
Dayton Blue | Two Top Car
LaFontaine Classic Cars is excited to offer this exceptional 1963
Chevrolet Corvette Convertible that perfectly captures the spirit
of early C2 performance and style.
Finished in striking Daytona Blue (Code 916A) over a beautifully
coordinated dark blue vinyl interior, this Corvette presents with
classic sophistication and unmistakable presence. The fiberglass
body showcases iconic styling elements including flip-up concealed
headlights, sculpted fender vents, quad taillamps, split chrome
bumpers, and dual exhaust exiting through the rear valance.
Accompanying the car is a body-color removable hardtop along with a
white convertible soft top, giving you the best of both worlds for
open-air cruising.
Under the hood sits a strong replacement 327ci V8, paired to a
highly desirable four-speed manual transmission delivering an
engaging, driver-focused experience that defines the Corvette
legacy. Recent investment speaks volumes, with a full undercarriage
restoration completed in May 2024 totaling over $22,000, ensuring
this car is dialed in, sorted, and ready to be driven and
enjoyed.
The car rides on 15-inch turbine-style wheels adorned with classic
three-eared knock-off spinners, wrapped in Firestone Affinity
Touring tires for a period-correct look and dependable performance.
The independent suspension setup including upper and lower control
arms up front and a rear transverse leaf spring offers balanced
handling, while power steering enhances drivability. Braking is
handled by four-wheel drum brakes, maintaining its authentic
driving character.
Inside, the cockpit is finished in dark blue vinyl (Trim Code 490K)
and offers a clean, classic layout. Features include an AM/FM
radio, working analog clock, and driver-focused instrumentation
creating a nostalgic yet functional environment behind the
wheel.
While the car shows some minor paint imperfections it remains a
strong driver-quality example with character and charm, perfect for
someone who appreciates a Corvette that can be enjoyed on the
road.
