1963 Chevrolet Corvette

INTRODUCTION

White with red leather! Yes, it is beautiful. The legendary “Split Window” is considered an iconic American automotive design. It holds steady as one of the most collectible Corvettes of all time. This one features an amazing color combination and very desirable power steering and power brakes.

EXTERIOR

1963 to 1967 coupes are more desirable than the roadsters because of their good looks and that is abundantly true of the 1963 because of that split back window. This one is absolutely beautiful in its original code 936 Ermine White. The body looks great! The doors shut like new, fiberglass headlight doors open and close, hood fits square and flush. The paint is polished smooth and glossy. I walked around the car and did not see a flaw, when you get up close and inspect it you'll find some minor hairline cracks. It looks like it has the original glass in good shape. The bumpers, grilles on the hood, the mirror and gas cap door have been replaced. It has the early roller catch gas door. We just added brand new knock-off wheels and it really enhances the car! The radial white wall tires look sharp too.

INTERIOR

Factory code 490L red interior. I'm sitting in the car and it is exceptionally nice in here! We just installed brand new glove soft leather upholstery on the seats. The red carpets are fresh front to back and includes embroidered floor mats. The correct, 1963 only, gauges look to be in excellent shape and they work. The dash pads and the correct glove box door are excellent. Inside is an original owner's manual. It has the correct optional AM/FM radio and red seatbelts. The original aluminum center console looks very good and is home to the correct reverse lockout shifter. The door panels and armrests are excellent, the headliner and visors are excellent. The red steering wheel looks new. Pretty much everything I'm looking at is in great shape!

ENGINE COMPARTMENT

It has a correct 327-300 horsepower engine, the casting # and engine suffix are correct. It has stock manifolds, valve covers, Carter carb and dual snorkel air cleaner. It even has the ignition shielding, upper and lower. Two very desirable options are power steering and power brakes. It has the correct dated Harrison radiator and expansion tank, reproduction hoses and clamps. Overall it looks proper and clean.UNDERSIDE: This is the first year for independent front and rear suspension. It has been maintained as needed. It appears to be in great shape and drives down the road real nice. The dual exhaust looks new and exits through the valance with the correct polished tips. Looking up at the motor it is clean and has a correct canister type oil filter and a correct starter. The VIN number matching Muncie 4 speed was just rebuilt.

The frame is solid and was painted black.SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and hired a team of technicians to work it. This is so we can sell you the best cars within reason.CONCLUSION: We have been dealing in split window Vettes since the early 70s, I've never seen the demand slow down!
