| 1963 Chevy Corvette Split Window Coupe |
One thing I can say, they sure have a lot of convertibles up for sale!
One of my personal favorites is this beautiful, and hard-to-find, 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Split Window Coupe! It's rare to find a '63 with the original split window in tact. There was a time when it was common for owners to have the split window taken out and replaced with one piece glass. This proved to be a big mistake.
