Overview of 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible Restomod For Sale by Owner

In 1963, Chevy revealed the all-new second-generation or C2 Corvette. The public went mad and queues formed outside Chevy dealerships, with punters vying for their chance to get their hands on the latest Corvette. The C1 had been around for nine years, and change was overdue. The C2 delivered in full, with its sleek new shape, pop-up headlamps and boat-tailed profile. It also featured an interesting split-screen design for the rear window of the coupe, but this was axed for 1964 onwards over rearward visibility concerns. No such issues for convertibles, like this 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible that’s up for grabs in Coral Springs, Florida. We believe that this car has undergone a comprehensive refresh and some updates too, thanks to its 355ci V8 and Tremec 5-speed manual transmission.

Exterior and Interior

This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible sports a nice burgundy paint job and complements it with a black convertible top. The car rides on a set of pristine-looking period wheels and proper, tall-profile tires. It’s also got those iconic pop-up headlamps, slim chrome bumpers, quad taillamps and rear-exit exhaust pipes. The car also includes the necessary Corvette and Sting Ray badging, as well as the Chevrolet Bowtie. The black passenger cabin of this 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible proudly showcases the upgraded sound system that this car packs. This is most notable behind the seats, where a quartet of speakers awaits your musical commands, powered via an aftermarket amplifier. Everything else remains stock-looking, including the twin-hooped dashboard which is reminiscent of an aircraft cockpit, the comprehensive gauge pack, the thin-rimmed sporty steering wheel and the manual gear shifter. After all, the Corvette is a long-distance grand tourer that’s meant to be driven for hours at a time without fatiguing the driver and passenger.

Engine

Power comes from a 355ci naturally aspirated small-block Chevrolet V8 equipped with Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection, delivering modern cold starts, improved throttle response, and enhanced reliability compared to a traditional carburetor setup. The Tremec TKO 5-speed manual transmission provides stronger gear engagement and more comfortable highway cruising than the factory 4-speed. Four-wheel disc brakes offer substantially improved stopping performance over original drum systems. The car retains cast-style exhaust manifolds and Corvette-style aluminum valve covers, preserving a clean, period-appropriate engine bay appearance while benefiting from modern upgrades.
