1963 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport
Loading...
Uploaded by RMAuctionsInc on Jan 12, 2009
Only five Grand Sport Corvettes were ever assembled to take on Shelbys Cobra before GM management put a stop to Zora Arkus-Duntovs lightweight project. Chassis number 002 is one of just two roadster-bodied examples, and its offering at auction marks a landmark event in Corvette history. With impeccable provenance and history, its availability is a once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire one of the most significant American racing cars of all time. RM Auctions is pleased to present this example, along with 125 others at its Automobiles of Arizona event to be held on January 16th at the Arizona Biltmore Resort and Spa in Phoenix, AZ.

The first GS cars appeared at Nassau Dec. 63. Grady Davis and GM dealer Dick Doane snuck the 3 GS cars away from GM and under the Mecom Banner were prepped for raced. John Macom was a second generation oil baron who also flew in a raced prepped Lola GT and the mid-engine Reventlow scarab all stuffed with the hairiest 377ci, 58mm weber carbed, 480hp, 500pf torque Chevy small blocks. Later these GS Vettes would get the aluminium engines. They beat everything except the alum 390 "flip-top" Cobra.

i think one was equipped with a 427 and it was fast! it probably would have matched or beat the Cobra.

Yeah, last I heard about chassis 001 it was first sold to Rob Walton (nee: Wal-Mart) for 1.2 mil, then a few years later was sold to someone else in the neighborhood of 4 mil...sigh. But I got two laps in it at Road America : )

the white car was sold for 4.7 million (yeah i know it was out of my price range too)
it went off in january i think.
I have a 63 convertible I'm rebuilding and I'm thinking i may build it as a GS

Sure would be nice to see what this car sells for, I know what chassis 001 sold for all three times it was sold.
