1962 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible — Numbers-Matching 327/300 4-Speed, Final-Year C1 in Ermine White over Black

Here is the culmination of first-generation Corvette development, presented exactly the way discerning collectors dream of finding one — a numbers-matching 1962 Chevrolet Corvette convertible wearing its factory-correct Ermine White over a crisp Black vinyl interior. The 1962 model represents the final and most refined year of the solid-axle C1, the last before Chevrolet unveiled the revolutionary Sting Ray in 1963. That distinction, paired with a documented numbers-matching drivetrain and one of the most enduring color combinations Chevrolet ever offered, makes this Corvette a genuinely compelling addition to any serious collection. Drop the top, grip that Muncie shifter, and imagine adding this landmark solid-axle Corvette to your own stable.
