Car was running and driving when it was parked 30 yrs ago....One owner car....was purchased new in Florida in 1963 then moved to Las Vegas NV in 1968.....clear title...matching numbers drivetrain...3sp saginaw manual trans...3.36 open rearend...car came with NO options...has heater...original wheels..no Rust....Looks ok in gas tank but since the gas went bad that was in there, it needs a minimum of cleaning out...

PRICE: $39k firm

CONTACT: Ron Miller 714-757-8437 OK to call from 10am-11pm (pac. Time) or email: rpmron@gmail.com

NOTE: The original owner recently passed away and I am assisting his son who is the heir to the estate. The son is computer illiterate and knows nothing about classic cars so I am helping to find a new home for this car. There is a clear title with no liens or salvage issues and the son is authorized to sell this car. Upon the sale, the son will write up a bill of sale for the new owner.

I have described this car to the best of my ability, but I am not a Corvette expert. I would highly recommend that anyone ready to buy this car personally inspect this car or hire a vehicle inspector that is familiar with early Corvettes prior to purchasing this car. If you purchase this car from my description and my pictures and decline doing a pre-inspection, the car is sold in “AS IS CONDITION” and there will be no warranties, guarantees, refunds or partial refunds after the car is shipped.

I agree to participate in trying to resolve any post-sale issues. I will work with any ones schedule for inspecting the car. I can assist with transport since I have a 24 foot enclosed trailer if you are located in Western states and have contacts for open or enclosed transport for other areas.


I am not charging the heir to sell his car, his Dad was friends with one of my brothers and I was asked to help out.















NOTE: Please do not place this for sale on any websites, thank you

I am very sorry to learn of the owner's passing. Good luck with sale and all the best for the new owner. I feel sure the car will bring as much enjoyment to the second owner as it did to the first.

Default 63

Please put me in line if the buyer does not follow through. I cherish long term ownership history and would preserve the car.

This is the car the dealership would advertise for a really low price to get customers in the door, then they would try to upsale to a car with more options. It's a base model car but it's still a Corvette!

Interesting steering wheel. Looks like a 15-incher. Might be worth a look under the cover to see if a wood wheel is hiding under there. . .

Is this like an Aaron Judge* at bat or does this 1963 C2 remain "up for sale?"

I gotta know right now 🥺 a friend of a friend of a friend said a deposit was made and a sale was forthcoming; congratulations if a sale was consummated and my sincere condolences to the sellers family on his passing

It has a new home. I bought it. Happy to have a new project especially a C2 Corvette! I've long regretted selling my 66. Pretty sure this 63 will be a full body off restoration and a multi year endeavor.

Hey Marv - Congrats on the purchase. One of these days, maybe I can stop by to see the new project.
And I've got a friend just north of me that has a similar 63 250 Horse Powerglide Roadster waiting in the wings for it's body-off. His is Red now but was originally Black on Black.

Congratulations and enjoy!
