UPCOMING SALES

1963 Chevrolet Corvette For sale at Bonhams, G’wood, 16 April, bonhams.com/cars

Why buy it? One of the Corvette icons – a 1963-only split-window Sting Ray coupé – wearing UK plates. Appears to be in very original condition and shows just 46,600 miles. Under the bonnet is a mid-ranking 300bhp 327ci small-block V8, refreshingly free of tart-up goodies. Take the estimate with a pinch of salt – it’s being offered without reserve. Estimate £90k-£120k
