1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Split Window Coupé
- Colour
- Light blue metallic
The 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Split Window Coupé is a first-year example of the iconic C2 generation, distinguished by its one-season-only divided rear window — a feature deleted after 1963 that now marks these cars as among the most sought-after Corvette variants. Finished in light blue metallic over a black interior and fitted with a four-speed manual gearbox, the car was brought from the United States to Sweden in 2013. The engine block is a period-correct CE-prefix replacement unit, and the original transmission type is unconfirmed.
