1963 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Mongoose Replica. Motorcar classics is proud to present this 1963 Corvette Grand Sport Coupe Replica that was factory-built as a turnkey car by the respected experts at Mongoose Motorsports. Chevrolets Grand Sport race cars gained the Mongoose nickname on the track at Sebring, where they trounced Shelbys Cobras. Mongoose Motorsports picked up on that nickname for their meticulously engineered and hand-crafted replicas. This is a fresh car with only 2,863 miles which benefits from being registered as a 1963 Chevrolet. The Mongoose GS Coupe Replica consists of a new fiberglass body with a custom chassis of tubular design similar to the original Grand Sports. However, it utilizes modern suspension and brakes from a C4 Corvette. While the Mongoose can be built for street or track, this particular car offers huge performance by virtue of its GM Performance Ramjet 502 CI V8 and user-friendly amenities including power windows, A/C and stereo radio. Our Mongoose is featured in Cherry Red metallic with Dove Grey interior and Arctic White stripes. The car comes with three binders that are a photographic record of the build plus documentation of all of the components which include Hedman headers, Tremec TKO 6-speed gearbox, Lakewood bellhousing with Centerforce clutch, Newman Car Creations differential, Vintage AC, Auto Meter gauges, Sony stereo with Pioneer speakers, Flaming River tilt steering column, and more. The Grand Sport was one of Chevrolets most iconic racing cars, only five were built, making them rarer than racing Cobras, and valued in the seven figures, if one were to become available. This Mongoose is a fitting tribute that you can drive and show today.
