It is the most sought-after treasure in the world of car collecting: the barn find, a
car discovered after years of waiting to once again greet the open road, or just to
be shown and appreciated as a piece of automotive history. Every barn find tells a
story, especially if there is strong documentation to go with it. That is certainly the
case with this 1963 Chevrolet Corvette convertible, which is described by its owner as
the most documented, original car he has ever had the privilege of owning. Thats
strong testimony, but it is based not only on the cars incredibly fresh condition but
by its accompanying paperwork. First, its condition: just shy of 46,000 miles, the
cars no-hit body exhibits near flawless body lines, and is believed to retain over
90 percent of its original Silver Blue paint. The Dark Blue interior is also original and
is in near perfect condition. The original 327 CI engine coupled with the original
Powerglide 2-speed automatic transmission retains all the original shielding. The
radiator, wheels and hubcaps, all stainless steel trim, chrome, bumpers, glass,
and working AM/FM radio are original. This first-year Sting Ray is also optioned
with power steering, power windows, Soft Ray tinted windshield and rare rear backup
lights, the latter appearing on only 318 Corvettes that year. The documentation is
impressive, to say the least. It includes the original title issued in April 1963, the
original dealer warranty work orders and insurance cards and license receipts for
many years. All documentation for this sensational barn find Sting Ray convertible
will be available for review on site.
