| In 1963, Zora Arkus Duntov secretly created the perfect race car known as “The Lightweight.” A more familiar name is the 1963 Corvette Grand Sport. Only five are believed to have been produced. The "Grand Sport" certainly holds a significant position in the Corvette’s history.
Thank you for stopping in to see this very impressive 1964 Grand Sport Tribute Roadster. It was custom built to resemble the famous Corvette Grand Sport race cars from that era specifically the George Wintersteen Grand Sport Roadster #002.
IMPORTANT DETAILS:
This is an actual 1964 Corvette (middle tub) with an original VIN Tag.
The custom tubular frame resembles the original Grand Sport and was built by L&J Chassis to accommodate a Corvette C4 suspension, brakes, rack & pinion steering, and differential (Dana® 36 Positraction with 3.54 gears).
In the engine bay, there is a familiar LT1 engine (355 ci.) rated at 400HP. It was built by The Balancing Act and features a 4-bolt main; a 600 CFM Holley double pump carburetor, and an aluminum LT1 Intake with a Pertronix® ignition and distributor (tach drive).
The Griffin Alum Radiator with a 16” electric fan keeps the engine running cool.
Managing all that performance is a new Tremec TKX 5-speed transmission.
The stainless steel Block Hugger Headers are connected to the classic 2.5” side pipes. As you would expect, the C2 side exhaust has that familiar throaty sound.
Yes, there is power steering and power brakes.
There are more details to share with you. Just give me a call or send a message.
Don’t miss the opportunity to put this outstanding George Wintersteen Grand Sport Tribute Roadster in your garage. It has never been tracked or raced and is a thrill to drive on country roads and highways.
