Colour: 'Sebring Silver'

A 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray split-window coupe finished in Sebring Silver over Red vinyl, distinguished by its rare Rochester fuel-injected 327 cubic-inch V-8 producing 360 horsepower — one of only 2,610 such factory-equipped examples that year. The engine was rebuilt by Engines Limited of Omro, Wisconsin under prior ownership, and the car subsequently underwent a comprehensive, cost-no-object restoration completed in 2020 by Bayberry Vintage Autos of Hampton, New Hampshire, returning it to factory-correct specification.
