The 1963 Corvette Sting Ray Coupe is iconic for its styling and for its one-year-only rear Split Window a feature that is so unique that the model has simply become known as the 'Split Window'. This car has been constructed to retain the classic appearance of the original car but to utilize modern components under that Sting Ray fiberglass. Beginning with original bodywork and much of the original components but missing its original drivetrain the decision was made to create a modern 'classic' ...as a means to preserve what was there and allow it to have a new life. The plan's execution was carried out flawlessly. This Corvette was built with stock exterior components including bumpers turn signals knock off alloy wheels and body trim but underneath nearly everything is chosen to reach the build goals. The drivetrain is modern balanced and blueprinted 427 ci LS-7 with four speed automatic transmission aluminum radiator external transmission cooler custom engine mounts brackets hidden fuel rail modern air conditioning and smoothed firewall. Undercarriage includes custom suspension components with adjustable shocks power vented disc brakes rack and pinion steering with stainless steel linkage ceramic coated headers and custom exhaust. The original frame rails were painted to a standard matching the rest of the build. The interior features custom leather seats and headliner wool carpets custom center console custom a/c outlets and controls vinyl dash top and restored gauges. Original door hardware was retained and power windows are included. Custom seat belts anti glare windshield. The odometer shows only 283 miles since completion.
