C1

Description

The 1962 Corvette C1 Convertible was part of the first generation of Chevrolet Corvette models, often referred to as the C1 generation, which ran from 1953 to 1962. The 1962 model year marked the final production year for the C1 Corvette.

The 1962 Corvette C1 Convertible retained the iconic and classic styling that defined the Corvette's early years. It featured a sleek and curvaceous body design, prominent grille, and distinctive dual headlights, embodying the spirit of American sports cars of the time.

Under the hood, the 1962 Corvette was powered by a range of V8 engines. In this model year, Chevrolet offered a 327 cubic inch (5.4-liter) V8 engine with various power outputs, ranging from around 250 to 360 horsepower, depending on the specific configuration and optional performance upgrades.

Transmission options included a standard three-speed manual gearbox, with the availability of a four-speed manual transmission for enhanced performance and driving experience.

The convertible top was manually operated, and when lowered, it complemented the Corvette's classic design, giving it a striking appearance with the top down.

The 1962 Corvette C1 Convertible remains a highly sought-after collector's car today, prized for its iconic styling, V8 power, and historical significance as the final year of the original Corvette generation. Its classic design and limited production numbers contribute to its desirability among automotive enthusiasts and collectors alike.

Pricing

At present, our inability to furnish pricing online stems from the dynamic nature of global economics, which has led to substantial fluctuations in the costs of parts and materials on a day-to-day basis. The intricate interplay of market forces, supply chain disruptions, and geopolitical factors has rendered pricing incredibly volatile, making it challenging to provide accurate and up-to-date figures in real-time.

As we remain committed to offering fair and transparent pricing to our customers, we find it prudent to ensure that any pricing information reflects the current market reality, hence our decision to refrain from online pricing until we can reliably provide figures that align with the ongoing fluctuations in the global economy.
