1962 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

When it comes to collecting Corvettes, generally speaking, the final year of a generation is often less risky than the first. Most of the kinks and bugs have been worked out, and the final year allows owners the benefit of engineers learning from previous years and enjoying their chosen ride to the fullest. This Roman Red 1962 Chevrolet Corvette represents the final year of the lusted-after first generation of GM's halo car. With its manually operated soft top up or down, this car demands attention wherever it goes.Inside, we find a clean black leather interior. Its three-spoke, rope-wrapped steering wheel makes it easier to keep a good grip than the original it replaces. That wheel, with its Crossed Flags center cap emblem, sits in front of the venerable six-pod gauge setup, keeping the driver apprised of all essential data without taking their eyes off the road. Simple HVAC knobs and pulls sit midway up the center stack, while a classically cool analog clock should run backwards because riding in this car feels like going back in time.Under the signature front-hinged Corvette hood, we find a 350 cubic-inch overhead valve V-8 engine. Featuring traditional Chevrolet valve covers, a single four-barrel carburetor with an electric choke, an aluminum radiator, an electric fan, a set of Hooker long tube headers, and true-dual exhaust, this Bowtie beauty gives it an authentic feel and sound. Power is routed through a tried-and-true Muncie four-speed manual transmission, keeping things fun and interesting on both short and long drives.HIGHLIGHTS: Final Year For C1 Manual Convertible Top 350 CID V8 Four Barrel Carb Electric Choke Aluminium Radiator Electric Fan Hooker Long Tubes Dual Exhaust Muncie Four Speed Manual GM Rear End Fifteen Inch Wheels Black Leather Interior Bucket Seats Upgraded Steering Wheel Kenwood AM/FM Cassette Heat DefrostThis 1962 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible rides on a factory-style suspension, while drum brakes all around scrub off speed whenever called upon.
