1962 CHEVROLET CORVETTE CUSTOM TOPLESS ROADSTER

This heavily pedigreed 1962 Corvette known as 'Elegance' has many subtle custom modifications that might be overlooked due to its seamless sleek design. Finished in a one-off color called Champagne Mist, this custom piece is powered by a 505hp LS7 engine with street and performance polished accessories mated to a polished 4L65E automatic transmission. Rounding out the engine bay is a polished aluminum radiator with stainless air conditioning lines. The exhaust system is polished stainless with custom one-off tips, and suspension is a fully polished C4 on a custom molded chassis. The sleek design and body modifications on the front of the piece are extreme, including removing of the bumpers, with solid grille rings accenting the front with matching side grilles. The coves were also fitted with custom billet inserts. The body modifications include widening of the rear quarters by 2 inches, raising the top body line 1 inch and lengthening it 1 inch. All body lines have been peaked and/or modified. The wheel openings have been tastefully altered to accept larger wheels, and the inner fenders custom-made and molded to the body. All bolts on the car are polished stainless, the hood and trunk latches were removed, and custom actuators were installed under the body panels and were completely molded in. All the wiring is hidden. Headlight rings were custom-made to eliminate the need for screws. A custom engine cover was fitted with an emblem that matches the side emblems. The beautiful leather interior was all custom-made, including seats, console and trunk. Billet spears throughout the interior match the billet side moldings. The car's awards include Detroit Great 8; Top Ten Builder Choice in Del Mar, CA; Top Ten Builder Choice in Loveland, CO; and Gold winner at Corvette Nationals in Chicago. It was also a feature car at the Hot Rod & Restoration Trade Show in Indianapolis, IN, feature car at SEMA in Las Vegas - Meguiar's 'Car Crazy' TV show and Top 12 of Mothers' Shine Award at SEMA, special guest at Long Beach MotoRama and featured in the November 2011 issue of Super Chevy Platinum magazine. The piece has been driven over 700 miles since competing in the show circuit, proving its roadworthiness. This is a one-off, stunning, heavily pedigreed 1962 Corvette. **SOLD ON BOND TITLE** **TITLE AS 1962 CHEVROLET RECON**
