Mongoose Motorsports 1963 Corvette Grand Sport Specifications
THE “COBRA KILLER” A HISTORIC RACING ICON
The Mongoose Motorsports Grand Sport is a replica car based off the 1963-1964 Corvette race car built by General Motors to be a “Cobra Killer”. There were only five Grand Sports built by GM, two of which were converted to roadsters. Having such a limited number of originals, the GS became a prime candidate for reproduction. In today’s market an original will sell in the millions, where you can enjoy one of ours for under $100K. Today Mongoose offers four versions of the coupe and roadster, from basic replica to the turnkey replica.
