Nineteen sixty-three marked the first year of the second generation C2 Corvette. The car featured the gorgeous Sting Ray design by Bill Mitchell and Larry Shinoda. New features for the 1963 Corvette included retractable headlamps as well an independent rear suspension. The car was offered in either a convertible or sport coupe with a split rear window. The C2 Corvette was produced through 1967.
This sharp looking 1963 Chevrolet Corvette has been restored to its present appearance in what appears to be Riverside Red with a white soft-top. The car rides on blackwall bias-ply tires mounted on color-keyed steel wheels with factory wheel covers. The car is powered by a 327-cid, 360-hp V-8 fuel-injected engine. In 1963 only 2,610 Corvettes were delivered with this engine. It’s paired to a four-speed manual transmission. The interior of the car shows very nicely, completed in red featuring bucket seats, AM radio and dash clock.
