Default Corvette Z06 With 36-Gallon Fuel Tank Heads to Mecum



There may be some confusion about how many Corvettes with 36-gallon fuel tanks were built back in the ‘60s, but there’s certainly no question about how valued these cars are to auctioneers now.

If the car is restored properly with 100% original parts in mint condition it will fetch $1,000,000+

How much would one of these be worth if it was a `63? And to my knowledge there were 63 with the 36 gallon tank in `63, correct? That is alot of 3`s and 6`s.
