The New Auto Toy Store is proud to present this 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Split-Window.

The second-generation Chevrolet Corvette is one of the most desirable iterations of the iconic nameplate. And it's not just for the aggressive, Mako shark-inspired design and powerful V8 engines. The C2 Corvette is also the only one that featured a split rear window.

This now-desirable element was part of the  C2 Corvette 's design from the very beginning. But the feature was short-lived. The split window also raised safety concerns due to reduced rearward visibility. As a result, it was discontinued in 1964.

This decision left 1963 as the only model year for the split-window Corvette. With only 10,594 coupes built that year, it's a fairly rare car. 
A genuine 1963 Chevrolet Corvette coupe always gets enthusiasts excited.

After all it’s a one-year only, split window car. And so when you find one that has been restored in the right places (like the shining silver paint0 while staying original in the best places (like the desirable numbers-matching L75 motor) then you know you are looking at a true gem up for grabs.
All the original design elements are still there, from the chrome vents in the hood to the ribbed rocker panels. And the chrome bumpers are proper shining art. You even get true knock-off wheels. But, of course what makes these forever valuable is the genuine split rear window that
only lasted one year. The coupe was given a professional respray to make sure it has the kind of glow you will love taking it out for a sunny day cruise and showing it off at events.

The black interior is a perfect match with the silver exterior, and with all the bright trim correctly still in place, this looks like a black and chrome two-tone. But more than just style, the StingRay was built for sports car function. That’s why you have bucket seats, a grippy three-spoke steering wheel, and a gearshift that just feels like the perfect position for your right hand.

There are terrific details everywhere you look, including the working Delco AM/FM radio, courtesy lights, power windows, and full gauge package.

Under the hood is the original, numbers matching 327 cubic L75 V8. So this authentic first year Sting Ray is still a correct powerhouse with its advertised 300hp rating. And since you will want to show this V8 off, it has the bright block, matching valve covers with callouts, polished
distributor shield, and pie dish air cleaner.

This is a Powerglide transmission car, which is a rarity to see.
You already know a numbers-matching L75 split window Sting Ray will always be coveted. So
this sharply-presented long term coupe is a true dream car.
