1963 Chevrolet Corvette

1963 CORVETTE ROADSTER, This is a running and driving car, I have not owned the car for long but will describe everything as best I can. I bought it as a project but really wanted a 65. I bought a 65 and now want to sell this 63. I will start with the body. wheel openings have been cut and arched, but they do make repair panels if you don't like that look. the hood is junk. The scoop was molded on and hood saged in the process so does not fit the greatest. I see no rust issues anywhere with body or frame. My guess is it was painted in the 80s, looks like acrylic enamel paint. Paint is checked on the entire car. Original color was Daytona Blue. stainless is actual very nice, I would say the chrome is driver quality. Windshield has a chip in it. Top has no rips and looks decent. Interior looks original. Drivers seat bottom is ripped, the rest is good but old. dash pad is good gauges are clean and work. door panels are driver quality. aftermarket radio. carpet is badly faded. the motor is not original it was rebuilt sometime in the past 10yrs but have no info on it. block #3858174 stamped code looks like F06I5HCH but is hard to read. Runs and sounds great, Mild cam, edelbrock carb and intake. transmission Im guessing is original shifts up fine but does not like to down shift unless stopped. The suspension has all been upgraded to VBP performance suspension both front and rear. All new tubular control arms and adjustable links with bilstien shocks. I have all original suspension that was removed that goes with the car. It does have power steering that I think was added. the brakes are still drum but power assist was added. Stops straight and nice. Will need exhaust, sounds good not loud but was cut for suspension work and the flowmasters are rotted. the car is fun to drive the way it is but deserves to go to the next level of either resto or taken back to original. The opening bid is the reserve and it will sell. title in hand. Happy to answer questions however im not going to search for numbers. It is what it is. buyer is responsible for pick up or shipping.
