Car history:
Posted 05/11/2017 This 1963 Split-Window FUELIE Corvette in a very desirable color combination of Daytona blue with vinyl saddle tan interior was the lucky recipient of a full ground-up restoration some years ago and has been enjoyed sparingly since. Numbers show that this is one of approximately 1,200 Split-Window Corvette Coupes that left the factory with the rare 360hp Fuel injected engine option in 1963. This particular car has an NCRS certificate showing it was originally delivered from the factory to Don Steves Chevrolet in La Habra California. Over the past year the owner has replaced common service components found to be incorrect date coded with ones that now display the proper dates. Items like the Alternator, radiator, brake master, starter, regulator and oil filter canister, have all been replaced with correct date coded units for a June of 1963 production car. In addition to correcting some minor deficiencies the motor and Muncie transmission were professionally rebuilt. The original block was unfortunately damaged beyond repair but has been retained if the new owner would like it as part of the sale. The replacement block, essentially identical to the original block in every way has all the correct castings #s (3782870) and date codes for a June 8th 1963 production 327 fuelie and has the proper broach marks and re-stamped matching numbers as found on the original block. We felt it was important to be completely honest and disclose that the motor has been replaced. It is however both internally and externally identical to the original block. Everything on the car works as it was designed with the exception of the radio and clock which need rebuilding. It starts easily, shift smoothly and tracks well going down the road. The brakes, suspension and steering all feel good. The level of restoration includes such details as factory hand markings on the side of the frame and other locations as were seen originally when the car was new. The paint shows a few age blemishes under close scrutiny but is overall still exceptionally nice in appearance. The interior also appears to be in good condition and supports the fact that the car has been well stored since the restoration was completed sometime in the 1990's. The Kelsey Hayes Alloy Wheels with 3-eared Knock-offs are original, period correct for 1963 and in excellent condition. This car is well sorted and ready for immediate use. Records of the two previous owners dating back to 1999 will be provided to the buyer. Additional build info: rebuilt heads with new values, guides, springs, lifters, cam, .060 over pistons, rings, rod and main bearings, new oil pump, ARP rod bolts, line-bored and balanced. Freshly rebuilt 327/ 360HP (L-84) motor build date May 28 1963. (Stamped: 3117005 FO528RF) Freshly rebuilt and flow-tested correct Rochester Injection System (#7017375) Freshly rebuilt Muncie M20 (2.56 low gear) transmission (#3831704) with correct bell housing (#3788421) and tail shaft (#3831731) New Clutch and throw out bearing. Some additional verified correct numbers are: Left and right exhaust manifolds #901 & 902 Original Heads: #3782461 Original Distributor: #1111022 New correct Alternator: #1100628 Gas tank is OLA correct Correct T-3 headlights Correct Intake manifold# 3826810 The differential is a 4:11 Positraction but is date coded as a later unit.
