35-Years-Owned, 350-Powered 1962 Chevrolet Corvette 4-Speed

Description

In 1962, the C1 generation Corvette was in its final model year and retained the major styling changes from the previous year, which included the iconic quad round taillights and the sculpted “ducktail” rear end, derived from the ‘59 Stingray Racer concept. Approximately 14,531 Corvettes were built before production ended in August 1962.

This ‘62 Vette has been in the seller's care for over 35 years, and it is powered by a replacement 350ci V8 equipped with an Edelbrock intake manifold and an Edelbrock carburetor topped with a louvered air cleaner bonnet. Finished in red over red upholstery, the car has been fitted with an independent front suspension setup from Total Cost involved as well as power steering, power-assisted front brakes, polished 14” American Racing Torq Thrust wheels, and a Hurst shifter for the Borg-Warner T-10 four-speed manual transmission.

This 1962 Chevrolet Corvette is now offered with a removable hardtop a clean California title in the seller’s name.
