Overall Condition: Hands Down, A Very NICE C2 Corvette and one of the nicest I have owned or driven!!! It's what every Corvette Enthisiast wants And a Great Investment As Well!!! If you know C2 Corvettes, you know a few important key points... They are not all restored or maintained the same. I came across this car when I was not really looking for one but just had to get it. The car was Frame-Off restored about 10-12 years ago I believe but it appears as if it were completed a year ago. Additionally, two months ago, I replaced the top and carpet again. The top had a small tear and the carpet appeared faded to me, so I replaced both. It comes with original Owner's Manual, Assembly manuals, Complete Build-Book showing as it was blown apart and reassembled (See Pictures). I also have some Registration and Tag Renewals owner history back to 1965 where it lived in Ohio. These High-Horsepower C2's are Very Hot, Very Collectable, Very RARE, looks and drives great! Especially when you have a No-Hit body and the quintessential Red on Red Colors. One of my all-time favorites, I love the feel and sound of this car and would not be afraid to take it anywhere! The engine has the perfect blend of torque and really makes for a nice top-down cruiser. Slide the top down, hit the key and take off...it's that simple. This is a car for shows (any level), cruise-ins, or investment grade for a museum or collection. I want to note that the radiator was replaced by a look-alike [painted] hi-flow aluminum unit as was the water pump. I have the original rebuilt Harrison radiator and the original water pump boxed up and they go with the car. This car NEVER runs over 185 degrees. I also have the 340 HP stickers for the valve covers but can't get them to adhere as they should. Things work as they should including but not limited to Headlight doors, Headlights/Taillights, Signals, Interior Dash, Gauges, Heat, Speedometer, Wipers, Horn, Courtesy Lights, Clock, Radio, etc. Is this C2 perfect? No and none of them are... I consider myself very particular and am usually much more critical of the cars in my collection than anyone else but try to be very forth-coming with details. In addition to my notes in the component descriptions above, the paint has a couple of small ¼" scratches between the headlight doors (might buff out), the carb was rebuilt by American Carburetor of Florida and while very, very close, needs a slight adjustment still to dial it in and take out a slight initial launch hesitation. It gets better as it warms up. That is about all I can think of... Why am I selling it: For the most part, its space... I have a couple of other old vehicles in my friends shop that are close to coming home. I reserve the right to end this auction early due to having it for sale locally... I am pricing this car to sell and believe it will not last long so, do not hesitate to buy and please do so with absolute confidence! Please have finances in order prior to bidding as well. Purely as a hobby, I have been blessed to sell cars to buyers all over the country and internationally in my 25 years of collecting and take tremendous efforts in keeping a 100% feedback...that said, I have tried to be honest and accurate in all descriptions. I encourage however all to inspect this vehicle in person prior to bidding so that you can confirm my notes above. You can contact me with any questions at mdescamp@comcast.net or (865) 384-6017. Note: I have a clear Tennessee Title In My Name for my Corvette...I am not a business and this is a personal collection vehicle. If you are the winning bidder, please expect to send a $2,500 deposit within 72 hours and have plans to pick the car up within 7 days. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer but I can assist with local direct carriers with both enclosed and open hauling available. If you have less than a positive 2 feedback, please contact me before bidding. Thanks for taking the time to look at my car and GOOD LUCK! |

I Also have a car cover that will go with the Corvette and I wanted to note that like most all T10 4-Speeds in the '63 C2's, the shifter's T-Handle does have a rattle at high RPM's. A new anti-rattle spring may resolve it?
