INTRODUCTION: A collectors dream! This fuel injected, Nassau blue, convertible, 4-speed manual with side pipes is something to be proud of. It's rare too being 1 of 771 total fuelies total with only about 500 convertibles. Making things even better are the #'s matching engine, transmission, and rear end confirming its elite status. It has received a meticulous professional frame off restoration (including receipts and documents) with all the specifics properly sorted, and the detail is exquisite. Buy this car and have some fun while being financially smart at the same time! Accolades include its NCRS shipping report, “Corvette Fuelies” by Robert Genat which this car is featured in, ownership history going back to the 1990s and it is listed in the Fuelie Registry.
EXTERIOR: She is a stunner! The factory correct Nassau Blue paint was re-applied with incredible attention to detail then polished to a smooth and highly reflective finish. All the panel gaps are very consistent with great alignment throughout. When looking down the side of the laser straight body you will see smooth contours and sharp lines. The doors close easily with minimal effort. All the glass is nice and clear with new rubber seals and fuzzy strips too. A fresh white soft convertible top easily retracts, plus it also comes with a removable hard top that was finished to the same quality as the exterior. It's equipped with the optional side pipes that are guaranteed to put a smile on your face with every rev of the engine. It also has an optional power antenna. Both the bumpers and remaining brightwork all have a glorious shine. It's rolling on a handsome set of knockoff wheels with spinner caps that are wrapped in reproduction Goldline tires. They were purchased just 3 years ago with minimal miles driven since.
INTERIOR: Looking fresh! Basically everything has been professionally restored or replaced. The original AM/FM radio, gauges, and even the clock were rebuilt and new lenses were installed. It is equipped with the genuine teakwood steering wheel which is like new. Outside of the obvious new door panels, dash pad, upholstery, and carpeting, it's the little things that make the biggest difference when restoring cars, like all new glove box hardware for example. The power windows are a much appreciated and hard to find option as well. Can you already picture yourself slapping around that 4 speed which has the correct reverse lockout shifter?
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Originality is key! The numbers matching 327 factory rated at a whopping 375 horsepower has been beautifully rebuilt and restored with correct parts including the coded and rebuilt fuel injection system, rebuilt distributor with ignition shielding, factory style cold air intake system, finned valve covers, and much more. It runs cool with correct and dated radiator and expansion tank; correct fan and shroud. The belts and hoses have been replaced plus the squirters and horns are hooked up. All the hood hardware has been replaced and functions great. The underside of the hood, fender wells, and firewall have all been neatly painted satin black.
UNDERSIDE: Clean and correct! The body was completely removed from the frame during the restoration. Underneath is highly detailed and restored to factory specifications. The smooth, solid frame is finished with clean black paint, while the fiberglass floors are in their natural raw finish. The independent front and rear suspension was completely rebuilt and restored, along with the steering system. It is equipped with 4 wheel disc brakes, 1965 was the first year for this, the entire system has been restored, even the emergency brake. Looking up at the engine it is spotless Chevy Orange paint complete with canister style oil filter, lower ignition shielding and even the proper starter. It retains its original VIN #-matching Muncie 4-speed manual transmission. The rebuilt driveshaft connects to the original dated and coded 4.11 posi rear end. It's also complete with the correct spare tire carrier.
