Details

This original 1965 Chevrolet Corvette StingRay coupe has just 20,480 miles. The car is powered by the coveted numbers matching L79 327ci 350hp V8 engine and backed by a manual four-speed transmission. This example is also equipped with a 3.70 Positraction rear end that delivers power to the rear wheels. Sold initially at Brackin Chevrolet in Lidgerwood, North Dakota, this StingRay was finished in Rally Red with black vinyl interior upholstery. Additional factory options include (new for 1965) four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, transistor ignition, and came standard with a Harrison radiator, and backup lamps. The interior was optioned with AM/FM radio, a no-glare mirror, and a telescopic steering wheel. Completing the car is a set of Kelsey Hayes aluminum knock off wheels with Gold-Line tires.

The third-party photos of the car, as well as the inspection, show a well-cared-for and original car. The exterior paint is in good condition, with only a couple of spots of minor chipping. The interior black vinyl upholstery is free of cracks and wear. The dash is clean with no warping or splitting. The interior chrome trim shows as well as the chrome bumpers, and are free of corrosion.
