West Coast Classics are proud to present an exceptional example of this older restoration and completely rust free 1965 Chevrolet Corvette roadster with a date correct 327cid V8 engine and finished in it's original factory 'Nassau Blue' color (code FF) paint and with it's original correct Black leather trim (code 402) interior with a wooden steering wheel, original matching factory hard top, side pipes, bucket seats, cockpit cluster console, full carpeting, complete instrumentation, manually folding and brand new 'White' convertible top, retro AM/FM radio and an upgraded 5 sped Tremec manual transmission!
The car is very striking and completely rust-free and has no signs of any accidents - obviously an always garaged and cherished car since new. The car looks extremely impressive in its obviously professionally repainted 'Nassau Blue' color paint and the matching and original specification Black leather interior has been beautifully reupholstered and is in exceptional condition throughout. The car has a new White soft top and all the chromework is also in very good condition and the 327 V8 engine is extremely strong and powerful. This particular car drives absolutely magnificently and sounds quite awesome - must be driven and seen to be truly appreciated - drives straight as an arrow with no strange road wobbles, shakes or rattles - a truly remarkable daily driver that will give any modern day sports car a run for it's money! The upgraded 5 speed Tremec transmission shifts smoothly through all the gears and the temperature always remains cool!
Please note that as typically happens over the years, the block was obviously previously decked by a machine shop during an engine rebuild and the engine assembly date and suffix codes were therefore unfortunately removed by the machining process and we are therefore unable to confirm whether or not the engine is original to the car although it does have the date correct 3782870 casting number (1962-67 327 2 bolt small block) which reportedly has 350HP.
This is a rare opportunity to own a great daily driving and never abused example 1965 Chevrolet Corvette 327 V8 roadster in very fine condition throughout! This is one highly desirable and collectible unabused example of one of the best styling efforts of the decade, a genuine grand touring car in every sense of the word, this shortest lived Corvette design (1963-67) is probably the most sought after apart from the 1953-1957 models and increasing in value and desirability each year! This particular model is sure to prove a most worthy investment or simply a great daily driver for any Corvette enthusiast or classic American car enthusiast!
