This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette split-window coupe is powered by a fuel-injected 327ci L84 V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission, and it was refurbished with work that included a repaint in Saddle Tan in 2009. The car was subsequently awarded an NCRS Regional Top Flight award in September 2009, and the car was also Bloomington Gold certified in 2022. Features include 15″ steel wheels with three-eared knock-off spinner-style hubcaps, a Positraction differential, an AM radio, a dual exhaust system, and concealed headlights.
The 327ci L84 V8 featured Rochester mechanical fuel injection and a high-lift camshaft to produce a factory-rated 360 horsepower. The engine stamping includes sequence 3106618, which matches the last six digits of the vehicle’s serial number. The RF suffix corresponds with a 360-horsepower, fuel-injected 327ci V8 for use with a manual transmission.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and an optional Positraction differential.
A dealer order form, an NCRS Shipping Data Report, a Bloomington Gold certificate, and NCRS Regional and Chapter Top Flight awards will accompany the car along with Al Grenning Classic Car Affirmation Service certificates pertaining to the trim tag and engine stamps.
The fiberglass body was refinished in Saddle Tan (932) during the refurbishment that was completed in 2009. Features include flip-up headlamps, fender vents, quad tail lamps, chrome split bumpers, and dual exhaust tips that exit through the rear valance.
Silver-finished 15” steel wheels feature three-eared knock-off spinner-style hubcaps and are mounted with 6.70-15 Firestone tires. The C2 was the first Corvette to offer fully independent suspension, with upper and lower control arms at the front and a three-link setup with a transverse leaf spring at the rear. Braking is handled by four-wheel drums.
The cabin features two bucket seats upholstered in Saddle leather as well as color-coordinated door panels and carpets. Amenities include a heater, an AM radio, an analog clock, and lap belts.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 6,500-rpm redline as well as gauges for amperage, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level.
The five-digit odometer shows 24k miles.
