This 1962 Chevrolet Corvette is a very nice driver-quality example
of the final and most refined year of the legendary
first-generation Corvette. Finished in classic Black with a
striking Red vinyl interior and a White convertible top, it has the
timeless color combination and unmistakable styling that make the
'62 Corvette so desirable.
Under the hood is its original numbers-matching 327 cubic-inch,
250-horsepower V8, paired with the desirable factory 4-speed manual
transmission for an authentic and engaging vintage driving
experience. It has also been equipped with additional electric
cooling fans to help keep the engine running cool and dependable,
even during warm-weather cruising. Vintage Air Conditioning adds
another welcome level of comfort, making this Corvette especially
enjoyable on longer drives and summer outings.
It rolls on newer Rallye wheels accented by chrome trim rings and
spinner-style center caps, giving it a clean, sporty appearance
that complements the car beautifully. Just as importantly, the
frame is exceptionally clean and rust-free, thanks to the car
spending its earlier years in the Carolinas and Florida.
This is not being represented as a concours show car, but it is a
solid, attractive and very enjoyable Corvette that looks great
going down the road. If you are searching for a good-looking,
good-driving and affordable example of the final-year C1
Corvette-with its original numbers-matching engine and factory
4-speed-you would be hard-pressed to find a better one for the
money.
