Penned by GM stylist Larry Shinoda under the guise of boss Bill Mitchell, the 1963 Sting Ray introduced all-new aerodynamic styling and superb engineering destined to become an instant classic. Underneath that gorgeous body was a mechanically-serious car, and it marked the first use of the Sting Ray name to describe the car, as well as utilizing distinctive hidden headlights. The wheelbase shrunk from 102- to 98-inches with independent rear suspension added for improved handling. A new ladder-type frame replaced the X-type frame which lowered the center of gravity, also improving handling. Available for the first time was a faster steering ratio with power assist and power brakes with optional sintered metallic linings and finned drums.

This extremely rare triple black 1963 Corvette Convertible looks stunning in its Tuxedo Black paint and matching black interior. It has been masterfully frame-off restored to NCRS standards including a complete rebuild of the engine. It is currently powered by its correct 327-cid, 340-hp V-8 engine which runs through a four-speed manual transmission. Included with the car are over 100 pictures documenting and detailing the restoration process and engine rebuild. This sleek convertible has won the coveted NCRS Top Flight award twice, most recently in 2010, scoring a 97.8. All of the NCRS awards and judging sheets are included with the car. This Corvette features power brakes, AM Wonderbar radio, and whitewall tires.
