Well-Optioned Body-Off Restored Corvette 427/400hp V8 Tri-Power 4-speed A/C

It seems wholly appropriate that we kick off 2020 listing an impressive Corvette Sting Ray! Cool cars: it's what your friends at RK Motors do -- 24 hours a day, seven days a week! And it's hard to argue that this sweet C2, mixing a tri-power 427/4-speed drivetrain with striking red and black aesthetics, is anything but a car with great purpose and even greater affirmations. Whether you're in the market for one of the coolest Corvettes ever made, or just an outstanding muscle car, here's an exclusive classic that'll star at the show and leave plenty of stripes on the pavement!

MARVELOUS MOTORING

Accenting a familiar coat of Tuxedo Black 2-stage with an aggressive red Stinger Stripe, this handsome coupe is a highly optioned charmer that's benefitted from a detailed, body-off restoration. One look at our high definition photos reveals top-notch aesthetics that are the product of great panel alignment and precise fit and finish. And overall, this clean Sting Ray is a fitting testament to the most collectible era of Corvette motoring.

Thanks to a renewed dedication to motorsports, and heavy influence from the original Mako Shark concept, the second-generation of America's sports car presents an aggressive, hard-edged appearance. At the front of this classic, bullet-style marker lights, show worthy bumpers and a vivid cross-flag emblem cage a broad, stainless-trimmed grille. Behind that grille, an aggressive Stinger Hood props sinister “427” emblems in front of factory-tint glass that's traced in straight stainless and cleared by mirrored wipers. At the sides of that hood, small door handles and a classy mirror float above simple heat extractors, black-trimmed rocker guards and traditional side pipes. And at the back of the car, monochromatic tail lamps split the difference between a chrome-trimmed fuel filler, a correct “Corvette STING RAY” emblem, a stainless-trimmed tag pocket and two more show worthy bumpers.

TRI-POWER PERFORMANCE

Tilt this Chevy's hood and you'll find 427 cubic inches of legendary Motor City big block that shines a correct “JC” suffix stamp and appears to have a matching 101919 partial VIN in front of a '67-exclusive 3904351 casting number. At the top of that Chevy Orange mill, familiar Holley carburetors ride between a chrome, correctly decaled air cleaner and bright stainless fluid lines. Below those carbs, a lightweight Winters intake funnels a perfect air/fuel mixture in to tough, cast iron heads, which are capped by steel, color-keyed valve covers. When the juice hits the cylinders, stainless-trimmed transistorized ignition sparks fresh, stainless-sleeved wires while a stock cam and rotating assembly push spent gases through factory exhaust manifolds. Cooling for that fire is provided by a factory radiator, which hangs in front of pliable GM hoses and reproduction tower clamps. And, aesthetically, this Chevy's tidy engine compartment is exceptionally well done!

ROW AND GO!

Not surprisingly, someone spent a lot of time carefully restoring the bottom of this exclusive Vette. And, given that the car has essentially been a weekend cruiser since it rolled out of the shop, everything is clean, fresh and virtually weather-free. Behind the awesome big block, a correct Muncie 4-speed sports a correct 3885010 casting number. That tough transmission twists a factory posi-traction rear end. That drivetrain rolls on a fully rebuilt suspension, which mixes smooth power steering with power disc brakes. And at the corners, reproduction turbines spin 215/70R15 BF Goodrich Silvertown Radial redlines around stainless, red-trimmed bowtie center caps.

CONTRASTING GREATNESS

Crack this C2's cockpit and you'll find a crisp Black and White interior that appears to have been completely replaced during the car's extensive rebirth. Seating comes courtesy of plush vinyl thrones, which anchor optional headrests between optional shoulder belts. From the driver's perch, optional air conditioning and an optional Delco AM/FM radio ride between rebuilt gauges and an aluminum-trimmed glove box. Below that dash, like-new carpet frames a thin console and fully functional shifter. Opposite that island, stainless-trimmed door panels hang monochromatic accents in front of optional power windows.

With the value of second-generation Corvettes locked in a steady climb, finding a well restored big block car is a great idea for long-term investment. This first class Sting Ray has the potential to provide one lucky owner with a lifetime of great memories and great gains. So, what are you waiting for? Call your friends at RK Motors Charlotte and claim this incredible C2!
