This numbers-matching 1962 Chevrolet Corvette was restored to the highest level in 2007 by Nordstrom Select Auto in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. After selling at an RM Sotheby’s auction in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in February 2008, it went on to win a Senior National First Prize award from the Antique Automobile Club of America in 2010. With fewer than 600 miles added since the restoration was completed, this Corvette remains in show-winning condition today. One of 14,531 produced in the last year of the C1 Corvette, this Roman Red example retains its original fuel injected 360 HP 327 V8 engine and four-speed manual transmission. This award-winning C1 Corvette is being offered from our private collection with a clean title, clean VIN, and extensive restoration documentation and receipts. Shipping arrangements are available.
1962 saw the last Corvette with a trunk until the C5 FRC (Fixed-Roof Coupe) of 1998 and the last with exposed headlights until the C6 Corvette debuted in 2005. Finished in Roman Red, this example sports the restyled grille, bumpers, and quadruple tail lights first introduced for the 1961 model year. The body wears new trim, emblems, and hardware, the correct single mirror on the driver’s door, and the correct 1962-only rocker panel trim. Original parts were retained and refurbished whenever possible, including re-chromed original front and rear bumpers. Among the few modifications to this Corvette are a Magnaflow exhaust system and a license plate topper identifying this car as the recipient of a 2010 Senior National First Prize award from the Antique Automobile Club of America (AACA) for restoration excellence. Likewise, the interior of this 1962 Corvette has been restored to “time capsule” standards. The correct red vinyl seats and pile carpeting show no wear, as do the lustrous brightwork accents found throughout the cabin. Refurbished original and NOS items are mixed with new parts throughout. The characteristic wrap-around windshield conceals the decidedly modern Corvette script residing behind the passenger grab rail, and a centrally mounted rear-view mirror is found atop the dash. The odometer is centered within the 160 MPH speedometer and displays just 553 miles at the time of documentation.
Under the hood lies an engine exclusive to 1962 and original to this car: a numbers-matching 327 V8 with Ramjet fuel injection, special camshafts, and mechanical lifters. Thanks to these improvements over the carbureted base model, this 1962 Corvette left the factory with 360 horsepower, the highest power output available in 1962 and the most powerful spec ever offered on the C1 Corvette. This car’s restoration excellence continues under the skin, marked by new hardware, decals, tags, and labels throughout the drivetrain. Each system has been fully addressed with new rubber, hardware, and fittings, and no component was left untouched.

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.
The first generation of Chevy’s popular Corvette sports car and grand tourer was revealed to the public in 1953. Called the C1, it ran until 1962, and sold just over 69,000 units. Today, finding a C1 is a little tough, but not impossible. You’ll find pristinely-kept, bone-stock examples, fixer-uppers, daily runners and restomods, like this Texas-based 1959 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod. This car packs a 6.2-liter naturally aspirated LT1 from a later Corvette, as well as aftermarket Z06-style wheels and a 4L60E 4-speed autobox. These, plus many other refinements make this a classic Corvette that you can daily drive with comfort and confidence.
The Chevrolet Corvette has been on the map for offering the world some of the most iconic classics. "America's sports car" refers almost universally to this unmistakable car. In the modern day and age, Chevrolet engineers aspire to keep this title alive by creating supercar-level performance vehicles for a relatively accessible price point. What we have here is a 2022 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray IMSA GTLM Championship C8.R Edition that found its way to our inventory from Henderson, Nevada. With a limited production of only 1000 units, this rare specimen was introduced to celebrate Corvette Racing's dominant 2020 IMSA championship. This being a collectible car is a no-brainer, and this example can be yours with only 6575 miles on its odometer.
