BARRETT-JACKSON - Barrett-Jackson, The World’s Greatest Collector Car Auctions, is building a docket that features incredible Chevrolet performance vehicles, both restored and exceptionally built Resto-Mod examples, for its annual Las Vegas Auction, June 30-July 2, at the West Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center. Among the most coveted of the early Chevy consignments is the 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Split-Window (Lot #733) that is Bloomington Gold Certified and a two-time NCRS Top Flight winner. Click here for Barrett-Jackson’s “First Look” at this Z06.
“Barrett-Jackson
has consistently been the leading automotive auction for premium American
muscle and sports cars,” said Craig Jackson, chairman and CEO of
Barrett-Jackson. “We were the first in our industry to recognize the future
collectability of American muscle cars and now both original and Resto-Mod
versions are the core of collections worldwide. We continue to offer the finest
examples of these timeless American vehicles as seen amongst our early
consignments for Las Vegas, many of which bear the iconic Bowtie brand.”
The
1963 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Split-Window (Lot #733) underwent a no-expense-spared
body-off restoration using only correct manufacture’s parts by Andy Cabral in
2019. Until its restoration, the two-time NCRS Top Flight champion was in
storage since the mid-1980s. It features the iconic RPO Z06 package, first
offered to the public in 1963, and one of only 199 models that year ever
produced with it. It is powered by a 360hp engine mated to a 4-speed manual
transmission and the consignor states that it has only 4,295 miles.
Highlighting
many of the exceptional Chevrolet Resto-Mods heading to Las Vegas is an
immaculate 1969 Camaro Custom convertible (preview) that was completely fabricated
and customized from the front to the rear by Camaro Concepts, Inc. This Chevy
is powered by its supercharged 6.2-liter GM LT4 V8 crate engine with ported and
polished heads backed by its GM 8-speed automatic transmission with an upgraded
torque converter. Riding on Schott S7 billet 19-inch wheel, the body and
chassis are finished in glossy Silver Spruce with a matte Silver Spruce
firewall and underside. The custom leather interior features Dakota Digital gauges,
billet door handles, billet steering wheel, Nu-Relics power windows and Vintage

spectacular Las Vegas docket for the 2022 Auction,” said Steve Davis, president of Barrett-Jackson.
