Default 62 Corvette 327-340hp

As I had mentioned in the summer, I had purchased an unrestored 62 Corvette. The car has been mostly unused for a period of more than 30 years. I purchased the car from a fellow in Naperville, IL. He had owned the car since 1977. In those years, the car accumulated not even 5,000 miles.

This is a low option car. One top only(soft top delete) 327-340hp, 4 speed, radio delete. Thats about it. The car had evidence of being drag raced early on. The original traction bars are in place as are the studs from what I assume an early scattershield. The block is original, trans was replaced with a numbers matching / date coded unit, and the rear center section is from a 63 fullsize (3.70 ratio)

75% original paint, original interior, solid chassis although has scale (always a midwest car) Hope you enjoy the pics as I have recommisioning the car.
