Built on March 20, 1963, this 1963 Chevrolet Corvette convertible received a frame-off restoration completed in 2020. Finished in Silver Blue with a white top over a dark blue interior, it features the original, matching-numbers 327/300hp engine, power brakes, power windows, and a Positraction 3.08:1 rear end. Located in North Venice, Florida, this C2 Corvette is available now with service records and a clear Florida title in the seller's name.
A recently completed frame off restoration is well documented in photos found in the gallery. The body was repainted in its factory-correct code GM912A Silver Blue and features pop-up headlights, styling vents on the front fenders and hood, quad taillights, and dual exhaust finishers.
Two-piece wraparound bumpers are at both ends. More brightwork can be found on the wiper arms, windshield surround, door handles, rocker panels, and taillight rings.
The cabin features the C2’s signature dual-cowl dashboard finished in black with contrasting dark blue door panels and bucket seats. Equipment includes power windows, a 3-spoke steering wheel on a telescopic column, a Bluetooth-compatible radio produced to match the original, and a fire extinguisher on the passenger side. According to the seller, the period-correct Hurst shifter for the 4-speed manual gearbox was rebuilt at the time of restoration.
Instrumentation includes a cluster with a 160-mph speedometer and a 7K-rpm tachometer, along with gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and voltage. A centrally mounted clock sits above the vertically oriented radio which is stock appearing but includes modern Bluetooth functionality.
Power comes from an L75 327ci V8 that was rebuilt, blueprinted, and balanced. According to the seller, the engine is matching-numbers original, with photos of the stampings and other part numbers available in the gallery. During the engine assembly, it was treated with a 2-stage epoxy that protects against staining, fading, and chipping. It is equipped with ported and polished heads, stainless steel valves, a double-roller timing chain, roller-tipped rocker arms, forged aluminum pistons, and a solid-lifter camshaft. The seller states the cylinder heads, connecting rods, journal caps, and intake and exhaust manifolds are secured with ARP hardware. The engine breathes through an aluminized steel exhaust system and is connected to a Borg-Warner T-10 4-speed manual transmission that transmits the power to the rear through a 3.08:1 Positraction differential.
The front and rear suspensions and the steering were rebuilt with Moog components. Braking is handled by Delco components and stainless steel brake lines. Uniroyal Tiger Paw 205/75R15 whitewall tires are mounted to steel wheels with correct Corvette chrome wheel covers.
In addition to a photo gallery the seller has provided multiple videos below, and an oil change was performed in the summer of 2021.
