According to collectors, the best Corvette is an original Corvette. But asking a car to stay fully intact for over half a century is a tall order and, as a result, many classics are torn apart and rebuilt in an attempt to recapture their showroom-fresh feel. Some, like this 1963 Sting Ray, have received a lifetime of care and maintenance that’s good enough to minimize the need for major restorative efforts. Over the course of 60 years, this roadster’s body and frame have always stayed together; consistently packing 327 cubic inches of V8 power and consistently motivated by a 4-speed manual transmission. With a desirable color combination and reliable, maintained drivetrain, the car presents with authority without sacrificing aesthetics. And, if you’re looking for a nice, sorted weekend cruiser to join the C2 crowd with, it reflects your brand of unique!

Like the old saying goes – “”it’s only original once””. The market certainly has no shortage of over-restored show queens, but sympathetically revitalized pieces like this unique roadster are an increasing rarity. With its original, 300 horsepower 327, tough M20 4-speed and list of carefully chosen refurbished pieces, this is a classic you can show and drive just as General Motors intended. If that sounds like a good way to spend your Saturdays, don’t miss the chance to claim your next Corvette!
