*1962 Chevrolet CRC Corvette* There is no doubt that the C1 Corvettes Chevrolet was building in the late 1950s and early 1960s are some of the most beautiful cars to ever come out of an American manufacturer. With their sporting lines, distinctive chrome trim, and unique “cove” paint jobs, these cars are instantly recognizable and even 60 years after production, the car many people think about when they hear the word “Corvette.” Although the design is no doubt iconic, the driving experience of these classic cars is less fantastic - by today’s standards, they aren’t particularly fast nor very refined - but that’s where CRC comes in. CRC stands for Classic Reflection Coachwork - a company that uses computer scanned models of classic Corvettes, to build accurate bodies out of carbon fiber, that are then installed on modern Corvette chassis. This 1962 CRC Corvette is based on a C5-Generation car, and the build was completed in 2025. Finished in the classic C1 color combination of red with a white side cove, this Corvette maintains the proportions of the original car, but with a more modern chassis and running gear beneath. A hallmark of the 1962 Corvette is the use of the same rear-end design that would be used on the upcoming Stingray, and the quad-rear lights which would go on to become a signature Corvette design element, used to this day. What makes this example even more appealing is the set of Custom Curtis wheels - modern alloys made to look like the hubcaps that would have come on a 1962 Corvette originally, but sized up to fit modern brakes behind them. This also allows for modern tires, which on this car are a custom set of Diamond Back Whitewalls that really complete the authentic look. The interior is pulled from the C5 generation Corvette, but completely re-trimmed in red and black leather by Luxor. There are numerous benefits to carrying over the C5 interior, including the seamless integration of a high-quality OEM stereo, cold air conditioning and a good heater. Additionally, one of the main complaints of people who buy a Corvette from this generation is the seating position - because of how the body is designed, you can’t move the seat back and the pedals are straight out in front of you, making for a pretty awkward driving position. Thanks to the larger chassis of the C5, this car is comfortable for a road trip and fits people of all sizes. Powering the CRC Corvette is an 5.7-liter LS1 V8 that produces 350 horsepower and 365 lb-ft of torque. Built with fuel injection and coil-on-plug ignition, the LS1 is one of the stoutest V8s to come from Chevrolet and offers great performance and remarkable efficiency. This engine is paired to a 4L60E 4-speed automatic transmission that sends power to the rear wheels. Although mechanicals on this car are largely stock, a custom exhaust by Speed Sports of Mesa, Arizona songs great and features killer-looking quad exit tips. If you have long dreamed of owning a C1 Corvette, but haven’t wanted to deal with everything that comes with old car ownership, this CRC Corvette is the car for you. With outstanding styling and numerous custom appointments, you get all of the excitement of having a classic in your garage, with modern comfort, convenience and performance. *Key Features* * CRC Custom Carbon Fiber Body * 1962 Conversion * 5.7-Liter LS1 V8 * 350 Horsepower/365 Lb-Ft of Torque * 4-Speed 4L60E Automatic * Red/Black Leather and Suede Interior * Custom Exhaust by Speed Sports of Mesa, AZ * Curtis Alloy Wheels w/Custom Center Caps * Custom Diamond Back Whitewall Tires For more information on this 1962 Chevrolet Corvette CRC or any of our High-Performance, Luxury, Exotic, and Special Interest cars always in stock, contact one of our friendly and knowledgeable sales consultants or always feel free to drop by our 40,000+ sq ft of Indoor Showrooms in Bellevue, WA - Home of an Exciting Inventory of Luxury, Exotic, High Performance and Collectible Automobiles.
