1962 Corvette for sale in Illinois $169,000

Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is excited to offer this stunning 1962 Chevrolet Corvette restomod for sale. This unique build features a vibrant and eye-catching red exterior paired with a rich, red synthetic leather interior and new carpet for a truly classic look. This Corvette is powered by a high-performance 6.2L LS3 V8 engine that promises remarkable power and performance. The LS3 is equipped with Holley Sniper fuel injection and upper intake, relocated coil packs, ceramic coated headers and dual exhaust with stainless MagnaFlow mufflers. Backing the potent LS is a 4L70E 4-speed automatic transmission, which offers smooth and responsive shifts, along with a highway-friendly overdrive, ensuring an exhilarating driving experience. The power gets to the ground via a limited slip differential-equipped rear end with 3.09:1 gears. This restomod was built by Fat Boys Restoration and Corvettes Everything, and rides on a Corvette Correction C4 frame and suspension, so the handling is what one would expect out of a much later model Corvette. You will have a hard time wiping the smile off of your face any time you drive this bad boy! This Corvette is not just about looks and power; it's also about comfort and convenience. It comes equipped with air conditioning to keep you cool during those hot summer drives. The Corvette rolls on high-performance Falken radial tires that wrap its 17-inch American Racing aluminum wheels. Given that the tires have fewer than 600 miles on them, you can be assured of plenty of miles of fun with optimum grip. The Wilwood Hydroboost power brake system ensures that the Corvette calipers at each corner bite down on those discs with plenty of force and provides superb stopping power. The car also offers a manual convertible top, allowing you to enjoy the open sky during your drive. You'll appreciate the power steering, and the effortless maneuvering it offers, plus, it's equipped with seatbelts for added safety. For your entertainment, an AM/FM radio with Bluetooth connectivity is included, so you can enjoy your favorite tunes while cruising. This 1962 Chevrolet Corvette combines classic style with modern amenities. The triple tail lights and fully-customized trunk further separate this classic '62 from its brethren - this is everything you want in a restomod: a unique blend of looks, power, comfort, and safety...a modern drivetrain hiding under vintage looks. It truly offers an unforgettable driving experience. Don't miss the opportunity to own this remarkable piece of automotive history. Contact our Houston Showroom today to make it yours!
