Vehicle Story

This 1963 Corvette Split Window is a bold reimagining, meticulously crafted to eclipse the standards of the world’s most prestigious motor shows. Every inch of this machine has been redefined, yet its soul- the unmistakable one-year-only split-window design, remains powerfully intact.

The exterior is a rolling piece of automotive art. Custom-fabricated brightwork, razor-sharp bodylines, and refined, hand-sculpted enhancements transform its iconic silhouette into something truly unforgettable. From bumper to bumper, it commands attention with a presence that’s both timeless and aggressively modern.

Step inside, and you’re surrounded by a fully bespoke interior that pays homage to Corvette heritage with vintage-inspired cues, reimagined through the lens of contemporary craftsmanship. One-off components and tailored details elevate every touchpoint, blending nostalgia with bespoke luxury.

Beneath the surface lies a beast: a Mast Motorsports 6.6L L8T Port Injected V8 mated to a Tremec TKX 5-speed manual, resting on a precision-engineered Art Morrison GT-Sport chassis with multilink  IRS. It doesn’t just look the part—it delivers thunderous, track-worthy performance worthy of its jaw-dropping exterior.
