This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette convertible was acquired by the current owner in 2008, and a refurbishment was completed in 2023. The car is powered by a rebuilt 327ci L76 V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission, and it is refinished in white over red upholstery. Features include a removable hardtop, a white convertible soft top, 15″ steel wheels with three-eared knock-off spinner-style hubcaps, an AM/FM radio, and concealed headlights. This C2 convertible is now offered by the seller on behalf of the current owner with service records and a clean Florida title.
