Description
1962 Corvette Ben Moore #18 Fuelie Race Car with RPO-687 heavy duty brakes, suspension, fast steering adapter, 3.70 posi, wide wheels and double front sway bars (part of Sebring Race Package). Also has pro-mounted Maroon roll bar with drill test hole. Honduras Maroon paint with Fawn interior, White racing stripes (ghost) with original seats, dash pad, gauges, steering wheel, and a full tonneau cover when found. Also had a small driver side racing windshield, rally racing lights, and a hardtop earlier in its life.
VIN #20867S101361 was raced by Ben Moore (Hauser Chevrolet) in 1962 (race #18) when he won the Northeast SCCA A-Production Divisional Championship. Raced at Marlboro (April 1962), V.I.R. (April 1962), Cumberland (May 1962), Vineland (May 1962), Bridgehampton (June 1962), and Watkins Gen (June 1962). Invited for special display at the Bloomington Gold Collection on June 21st - 22nd, 2024 where Bloomington's theme will be fuel injection in its 52nd year of doing shows.
Documentation includes 4-year exhaustive research done by Bill Gould/Auto Ancestry, race photos, race grid sheets, SCCA records, and several 3-ring binders. Also included are the forensic photos during research and disassembly. We still need to locate the rally lights and install the race numbers. FUN FACTS: (RPO-684 and RPO-687 production versus total production): 1957 RPO-684 = 51 produced of 6,339 total production, 1958 RPO-684 = 144 produced of 9,168 total production, 1959 RPO-684 = 142 produced of 9,670 total production, 1960 RPO-687 = 119 produced of 10,261 total production, 1961 RPO-687 = 233 produced of 10,939 total production, 1962 RPO-687 = 246 produced of 14,531 total production.
This illustrates that the RPO-684/RPO-687 option was only produced on approximately 1-1/2% of the total production of the 60,908 Corvettes produced from 1957 to 1962. Rare? Yes, rare indeed!!!
