Exterior:

The Silver-Blue Metallic paint retains its factory gloss and evenness, with no damage and excellent body-panel alignment. The car features rotating headlights, original factory badging, and well-maintained chrome elements including side mirrors, windshield surround, door handles, bumpers, lower side trim, hood “louvers,” and lower-front grille. The windshield glass is clear and unblemished, and the car rides on factory turbine-design wheel covers with faux knock-off caps and Firestone bias-ply narrow whitewall tires.

Interior:

The dark-blue leather interior perfectly complements the exterior. The characteristic twin-cowl dash, center stack, and visors feature the same material, with light patina appropriate for the car’s age. The vertically pleated leather seats are free of damage. The original Corvette-branded steering wheel and clear instrument-glass are in excellent condition. The 160-mph speedometer, tachometer, and auxiliary gauges operate as they should. The vertically mounted factory-original AM pushbutton Delco radio is in place in the center stack, and the four-speed shifter is surrounded by metal trim bearing the shift pattern. The door trim, including red side-warning lights and pleated leather, is also excellent.

Engine and Performance:

Under the front-hinged hood, the numbers matching 327 cubic-inch V8 engine, identified by its Corvette-script forged valve covers, and a chrome air-cleaner cover, is well-maintained. All components are present and properly located in the clean engine bay. The undercarriage shows no damage to the dual exhaust system, with modest surface rust on some suspension components and un-protected metal surfaces.

Summary:

This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Roadster is a well-preserved classic with its original numbers matching 327ci V8 engine and a 4-speed manual transmission. The car’s original Silver-Blue Metallic exterior and Ocean-Blue leather interior are in excellent condition, reflecting its careful maintenance and sparing use over the years. With only 69,000 miles, this iconic Corvette is ready for its next owner to enjoy.
