Description

The 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray marked the debut of the C2 generation and is best known for its iconic “Split Window” coupe design. Widely considered one of the most desirable Corvettes ever built, it holds a special place among collectors. This fully restored example reflects that legacy, having been shown at prestigious events like the Hilton Head Concours d’Elegance and earning honors such as NCRS Flight Winner status and recognition as an AACA Senior candidate.

The exterior, restored in 2002, is finished in a striking solid red and remains in excellent condition. It is complemented by knock-off style wheels with whitewall tires, along with outstanding chrome and the distinctive 1963-only dual hood grilles. Inside, the black vinyl interior has been fully restored and presents beautifully, retaining its factory look with features like the original AM radio, working gauges, and new weatherstripping.

Power comes from a rebuilt 327ci V8, correct for the model year, delivering strong and smooth performance. It is paired with a rare 3-speed manual transmission, along with manual steering and four-wheel drum brakes. With refreshed mechanical components and high-quality restoration throughout, this split-window Corvette stands as a highly collectible and impressive example.
