Description of 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible |
1965 RALLY RED CORVETTE 396 CONVERTIBLE Awesome, Top Flight Award winner! Rally Red w/Red interior, L78 396/425hp, 4-speed manual transmission. Mid-Year Corvette’s tend to attract a lot of attention when they’re out on the road. The design is simply timeless and even if you’re not a “car personâ€, anyone would appreciate the beauty of one of these classics. But, even in the realm of second-generation Corvette’s, there are stand-out’s. And one of them is the car presented here. They say, “all Corvettes are Redâ€. Well, not really. But, this one most certainly is! Rally Red to be exact. But, where most would expect to see a Red Corvette on a regular basis, what you wouldn’t regularly see is one with Red interior! The ’65 model year was a milestone for Corvette for a number of reasons. It was the first year for standard 4-wheel disc brakes, the last year for mechanical fuel injection, and the introduction of the Mk IV 396ci big-block engine! The legend of the big block production Corvette started right here in ’65! And the one year only 396 was offered only in a “wild†solid lifter version. Striking would be a word that comes to mind upon viewing this #’s matching ’65 in person. Beautiful, dazzling, and graceful would be a few others. All apt descriptions for a car that is significant to both the Corvette hobby and Corvette Mike, as well! The car has been beautifully and correctly frame-off restored and is optioned with power windows, am/fm radio, and knock-off wheels with Gold line radial tires. The engine is believed to be original to the car. It’s also the recipient of a National N.C.R.S. Top Flights and a Bloomington Gold award. Comes with a binder full of restoration receipts, photos, documentation, and more! |
