[VIDEO] 1963 Corvette Z06 Split Window with N03

We’re still digesting some of the fantastic Corvettes we saw at Mecum’s Kissimmee auction earlier this month and one of those collector cars that really made an impression was a Black/Red 1963 Corvette Z06 Split Window with the 36.5 gallon N03 gas tank.

That catalog description goes on to say that this is the only Tuxedo Black with Red Interior Corvette Z06 with the N03 option.

[VIDEO] The Build Process of the new Corvette Z06 GT3.R Racers

As we lead up to the running of the 2024 Rolex 24 at Daytona on Saturday, Pratt Miller Motorsports has been sharing a bunch of content on their social media sites for the fans. One of these videos showcases the process of building the new Z06 GT3.R race cars from the ground up.

It all starts in Bowling Green, Kentucky at the Corvette Assembly Plant. A stock frame, chassis components, much of the Z06’s 5.5L V8, and even the interior dash are the starting points for the car and then it all comes together at Pratt Miller’s facility where all the race and safety content are added. It takes about 16 weeks from start to finish to complete the new racecars.
