Chevrolet’s Corvette needs no introduction at all, as everyone knows the story that dates back to 1953. Each generation of Corvette is special, but none more so than the historical first generation that ran for nine years. What we’ve got here is a nice 1962 Chevrolet Corvette 327ci that’s undergone a two year restoration by Kurt Schulze of Kurt Cars, and looks stunning as a result. What’s more, with just 87,000 miles on the clock, it’s been lightly run during its life, and is ready for more.
The second generation may have brought upon the iconic pop-up headlamps, but the first generation’s distinctive quad-eyed view is appreciated by those who know, and 1962 was the last year that would see fixed headlights on a ‘Vette until 2005. This 1962 Chevrolet Corvette 327ci underwent a complete repaint in its original Honduras Red paintwork during the restoration, which even included paint drips from the factory. What’s more, as a testament to the excellence of the paint matching, the passenger side headlamp has retained the original factory paintwork but you’d never know unless told. Sitting on a stylish set of five-spoke wheels and sporting the requisite brightwork and badging, this ‘Vette is a surefire head turner, especially when you lower its black convertible top. While you’re turning heads, you’ll be doing it from the black two seat interior that sports the iconic twin cowled design, including passenger grab handle, and instrument binnacle that sees a large semicircular speedometer flank a smaller central tachometer. There are no touch screens, dizzying arrays of buttons, or gazillion features to learn; this ‘Vette is a lesson in simplicity. Want entertainment? Try to catch some airwaves with the Wonderbar push button AM radio in the dash, but you won’t have much luck in most areas. Ah well, why not listen to the music of the engine instead?
This 1962 Chevrolet Corvette 327ci is able to produce sweet music in response to your right foot’s input, thanks to its Chevrolet 327ci Turbo-Fire small block V8. We aren’t sure of the exact output of this V8, but it could vary between 250hp and 300hp. Drive is sent to the rear wheels via a four speed manual transmission, and the seller reports that the engine and transmission are numbers matching.
Chevy’s second generation or C2 Corvette is one of the shortest in the Corvette’s story. It saw just five production years, namely 1963 to 1967. Yet, the C2 is recognized as a defining moment in the Corvette’s journey, bringing features that endured for generations. It marked when the Corvette would forever be a V8-powered machine, and only have V8s under the hood. It brought pop-up headlamps to the party for four decades thereafter. Most alluringly, it created an achingly beautiful shape that modern Corvettes haven’t quite been able to pull off – they’ve all tended towards muscular and angular – or a combination of the two. Today’s 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod LS3 is a fine restomod that’s truly a one-of-a-kind machine. Sitting on a SRIII Motorsports Round Tube Chassis, this ‘Vette enjoys a 480-horsepower GM LS3 V8 with fuel injection, a Tremec 5-speed manual gearbox and so many other neat things. The current owner says that just 800 miles have passed since the build of this car was completed.
Chevy’s C3 or third generation Corvette was around from 1968 right up until 1982. It weathered the Malaise Era with poise, remaining one of the fastest American cars during those dark times. Chevy kept updating and improving the C3 throughout its lifetime, too. This meant that even later-model C3s had plenty to offer. Take this 1979 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe as a prime example. It’s painted in lustrous Coca Cola red and packs the requisite 350ci V8 under the hood. Plus, it’s got under 10,000 miles and resides in Brownsville, Kentucky. Talk to us if you’d like to make it your own – because a C3 Corvette in good condition is a fine way to enter the world of classic American cars.
Chevy’s C8 or eighth-generation Corvette debuted in 2020 with a new mid-engined design, supercar-inspired looks and a new level of performance, overall. The new LT2 small-block V8 makes 490hp and 465lb-ft in stock form, which is a mild increase over the C7 on paper, but translates to vastly improved acceleration and drivability as a result of tuning and the new 8-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox which the C8 comes with. But what if you want to make that naturally aspirated unit into a forced induction beast? Well, you get something like this 570-horsepower 2022 Chevrolet Corvette 1LT. Tuned by Elited South Tuning and fitted with a Huron twin-turbo kit, this rear-wheel drive beast could be yours. It’s up for grabs in Greer, South Carolina with under 5,000 miles on the clock. The original window sticker, two keys and owner’s manual are included with the sale as well.
In the Seventies, trucks like this 1971 Chevrolet C10 plied back and forth across America’s roads, carrying cargo and supplies for countless small businesses and entrepreneurs. Essentially, these trucks were a significant part of the backbone of American commerce, in urban as well as rural areas. They were built tough and utilitarian, but had reasonable comfort to allow their owners to carry their families within the passenger cab as and when needed. This particular truck comes from the second generation of the C/K Series which ran between 1967 and 1972. IT’s got just 1,237 miles on it after some refreshment work, and is available in Spring, Texas. That makes it a fine classic truck to own and drive if you’re inclined towards such vehicles.
