Take a look at this stunning 1962 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible that has been transformed into a Pro Touring masterpiece! As one of America’s most iconic cars, the Corvette has always been a popular platform for Resto-Mods. While the styling of the first-generation Corvette has been loved by many, its driving performance by modern standards left something to be desired. Fortunately, the custom world has stepped in to address that, and this 1962 Corvette is a perfect example of how to bring a classic car into the modern age.
On the outside, this car has been modified to give it a more aggressive performance look. The custom grille, fabricated from 1957 and 1958 Corvettes, and frenched-in headlights give the car a unique and stylish appearance. A custom ZR1-style hood, complete with a transparent hood insert, completes the package. The interior features Flame Red leather that perfectly matches the Salsa Red exterior.
The chassis has been replaced with an Art Morrison model that utilizes C6 Corvette suspension components, a Detroit Speed power steering rack, adjustable Coilovers, a rear triangulated 4-link suspension, and 4-wheel disc brakes. Under the hood sits a GM LS3 Fuel Injected V8 engine that’s mated to a 4L65E 4-speed electronic overdrive automatic transmission.
Inside, you’ll find upgraded AutoMeter gauges, a custom sound system, a tilt steering wheel, and a Shiftworks shifter. This 1962 Corvette is an amazing vehicle that any collector or enthusiast would love to own. Don’t wait too long, give us a call today before it’s too late!
