1964 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

Description

Because a red Corvette convertible is what we all love, this one is fantastically rosy inside and out. But more than just looks, this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette convertible has that perfect mix of V8 rumble, independent chassis, and four-speed control that makes every outing an experience.

This car is a true iconic American. A red Sting Ray gives every one of us the fantasy of cruising a car hop for late night burgers, and then parting the midnight air with the sounds of breaking in fresh asphalt. And '64 is one of the most desirable body styles. It has some great trim that was not available on later years, proper four taillight design, and a distinctly aggressive hood. But more than just year-specific details, the paint and bodywork on this example remind you that there was careful ownership all its life. In fact, this example spent two decades under one owner's care. The bumpers are bright, the details are great (like the redline tires,) and while the folding roof neatly stores away under the hard boot, this one even looks good with bright white top in place.

Open the door, and it feels like 1964 all over again. There's a sea of red on the carpets, bucket seats, and dash. Just about the only thing that breaks up this festival of scarlet is the grippy three-spoke steering wheel that is truly worthy of a vintage sports car. If you look closely at the radio, you'll notice it's a retro-style unit with an AM/FM digital tuner and aux input. That way you get the vintage look while still getting the best driving tunes. Of course, with that stick shift boldly sitting in the middle, you know you're real favorite soundtrack starts under the hood.

The engine bay looks nice with shine on the air grabber, intake, and Corvette script valve covers. Beyond the style is the substance of a strong 327 cubic-inch V8 topped with a four-barrel carburetor. Plus, there have been nice investments in components like new bushings, wiring harness, fuel tank, and dual exhaust. Best of all, you have complete control of the power and its growl thanks to the four-speed manual transmission. This is a true sports car for the road with the C2's fully independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes.

You knew you wanted this icon from the moment you saw the great red-on-red appearance. But as you dig deeper and go over the included owner's manual packet, soon you realize that this deal just keeps getting better. Call now!
