2006 Chevrolet Corvette Crystal Red Sunglow Metallic 1963 Corvette ZO6 Coupe Replica

“The best of both worlds” is how the seller of this unique 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Coupe/1963 Corvette “split window” coupe replica conversion describes the car. Karl’s Kustom Corvettes transformed the 2006 Z06 donor car. The chassis, running gear, “A” pillars, windshield, side glass, doors, and approximately 50% of the donor car were retained. The result is a modern Z06 Corvette with the looks of a classic ’63 Corvette. The transformation was completed in 2012.
