1962 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

Vehicle Description 1962 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible $60,985 This 1962 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is a numbers-matching example finished in its factory-correct Ermine White over Black vinyl upholstery and powered by its original 327ci V8 factory rated at 300 horsepower. The engine is paired with a desirable Borg-Warner T10 four-speed manual transmission, making this an excellent representation of the final and most refined year of Chevrolet's iconic first-generation Corvette. Completed at Chevrolet's St. Louis, Missouri assembly plant and identified by VIN 20867D106043, this Corvette is one of 14,531 examples produced for the 1962 model year, the last year before the introduction of the revolutionary Sting Ray in 1963. Finished in Ermine White, the fiberglass body showcases the clean, purposeful styling unique to the 1962 model, including the blacked-out grille, sculpted rear deck, exposed trunk lid, quad round taillamps, and chrome bumper treatment that defined the final C1 Corvette. The crisp white finish is beautifully complemented by the Black vinyl interior, creating one of the most enduring and recognizable color combinations offered by Chevrolet. Power comes from the original, numbers-matching 327ci small-block V8, equipped with a four-barrel carburetor and factory rated at 300 horsepower. Coupled with the Borg-Warner T-10 four-speed manual transmission, the drivetrain delivers the strong performance and responsive character that established the 327 as one of Chevrolet's greatest engines. The 300-horsepower version is especially admired for its balance of reliability, drivability, and spirited performance. Inside, the cockpit features bucket seats trimmed in black vinyl, a machine-turned aluminum instrument panel, a 160-mph speedometer, an 8,000-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges monitoring fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, battery condition, and an analog clock. The floor-mounted shifter provides precise engagement through the four-speed gearbox, enhancing the engaging driving experience
