This 1962 Corvette was originally purchased from Harry Mann Chevrolet in Los Angeles. The previous owner purchased this Corvette in July 1973, and owned it for 48 years until his passing in 2021. He had it repainted in 1977 with the original factory Roman Red Lacquer. It retains its original #’s matching block (2101993), original intake manifold (3785397), original heads (3782461), and original Borg Warner 4-Spd manual T10 transmission. In 2012 the engine was rebuilt by Brad Lagman with a Comp Cams solid roller camshaft, and now puts out 355 HP. The battery was replaced 1 year ago, and the odometer reads 46,138.
The restored exterior of this 1962 Corvette is spectacular with its Roman Red lacquer paint, Roman Red hardtop or new black soft top with new weatherstripping, chrome front and rear bumpers, chrome rocker panel moldings, and BF Goodrich T/A P215/70R15 radial tires mounted on original 15” wheels with factory high performance hub caps. Other features include as new Chrome Door Handles, Chrome Side Window Trim, Chrome Front Windshield Trim, chrome outside mirror, and miscellaneous stainless trim. Updates for 1962 included cleaner looking matching-color coves, a black grille, and chrome rocker panel moldings. 1962 was the last year of the external trunk, solid rear axle and fixed headlights.
The restored black interior is beautiful, and is in as-new condition. It has twin bucket seats, floor mounted shifter, a now standard heater/defroster system, retains its original factory WONDERBAR radio with six station push buttons, a large speedometer, a 6500 RPM red line tachometer, as well as fuel, engine temperature, battery and oil gauges. There are revised door panels and seat pattern for 1962, driver and passenger visors, a dash mounted rear view mirror, rubber floor mats, an open in-dash glove compartment, and a locking glove box between the seat backs containing the owner’s manual and other items.
This Corvette is powered by its original matching #’s 327 Cu In 340 HP V-8, that after the 2012 rebuild by Brad Lagman now delivers 355 HP. The engine is paired with its original Borg Warner 4-Spd Manual T10 Transmission. The 1962 Corvette was the last and best year for the C1’s, and it had the new 327 CU engine, a better single 4bbl carburetor setup, greater HP and acceleration.
The factory front suspension features coil springs and stabilizer bar. The rear suspension features semi-elliptic leaf springs and a locating radius/torque arm setup.
The correct original restored engine bay is immaculate! The inside of the trunk is also immaculate, and contains the spare tire, jack and mat.
Included is the hard top dolly, two car covers, hard top cover, many original documents, and magazine covers where it was the featured car.
The bottom line is that if you’re looking for a 1962 Corvette, you just found it. This restored show condition 1962 Corvette is ready to win trophies, and will give its new owner immense pride of ownership and driving excitement. It has a clean title, and California registration is paid through November 2027.
This is a private party sale, with all the private party advantages!

What the photos show
- Roman Red paint is glossy and even over the whole car in the 16 photos viewed, with straight flanks and clean coves - no paint budget from these photos.
- The black soft top is up and looks taut in the side views, and the matching red hardtop is shown separately on its stand - both tops present in the gallery.
- Chrome bumpers, grille teeth and rocker trim are bright, and the red steel wheels with small caps and BFGoodrich tires look fresh in the close-up.
- Black interior looks crisp throughout: door cards unmarked, seats smooth, dash and gauge faces clean, and the trunk mat tidy.
- The engine bay is shown once: single air cleaner, finned covers and tidy wiring, with no visible leaks or overspray.
- The car is photographed only at home on the driveway - no lift, underside or frame views anywhere in the sample.
- No underside photos in the 16 viewed - the frame and birdcage cannot be judged.
Money: at $97,500 the paint, both tops, chrome and interior all look the money in these photos; the frame and underside are unseen and are must-verify items before paying solid-axle money.
