Car history:
Date posted 04/20/2016 Lot F264 In 1963 the Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport racers rocked the sports car world; thirty-three years later the fourth generation Corvette was taking its bow by commemorating the original Grand Sport with a special model. Only five originals were built and 1,000 1996 Grand Sports issued, both facts certainly noted by the builder of this 1963 Corvette convertible that has been freshly Resto Modded using all-1996 vintage underpinnings. The key to the latter-day Grand Sport was its superb powerplant, the LT4, a traditional pushrod small block V-8 that delivered 330 HP in stock tune and a stout 400 HP in this application, where it is used in conjunction with a Tremec 6-speed manual transmission and heavy duty Dana 44 rear end. Beneath the attractive Sting Ray body is a 1963 Grand Sport specification tube chassis from Mid America Industries, the perfect host for the 1996 Grand Sport all independent front and rear suspension complemented with Alden Eagle springs and coilover shock absorbers. C4 Grand Sport disc brakes are also employed, the Red calipers and vented discs visible behind 18x9.5-inch front and 18x12-inch rear C6 Z06 aluminum wheels wearing Nitto NT555 rubber. With all that performance on tap, the builder made the most of the Sting Rays vintage appeal, finishing the car in new White paint with a Black Stinger on the big block hood and a Black soft top, finalizing the look with GM factory style side exhaust. The interior is pure stock with the thoughtful exception of a Flaming River tilt column, billet steering wheel and 1967 headrest seats from interior king Al Knoch.
