Vehicle Description
Purchased new in October 1963 by Don & Laura Abbott from Beaty
Chevrolet of Knoxville, Tennessee this 1964 Corvette Convertible is
the exact definition of a "Survivor." Although those terms are
thrown about loosely in today's collector car market, this car
truly fits the bill. Sporting it's Original Riverside Red paint,
Red Interior and Complete Numbers-Matching Drivetrain, this
Corvette has been inspected and verified by Roger Gibson of Gibson
Restorations and his full report is included with the sale.
This highly original Vette' was purchased from Original Owners Don
& Laura Abbott in September 2016 with a full complement of original
documentation including Owner's Guide, 1964 Warranty Plan, Dealer
Invoice, Certificate of Tennessee Title dated 10-28-63, Radio
Guide, Sales Invoice and Sales Brochure. Also included is a
notarized letter from the Abbotts stating the miles and condition
of the vehicle when it left their ownership in September of
2016.
The Original paint shows well with only a few small touch-up spots
and typical aging you would expect from a 53 year old car. The
interior has held up well, with only the driver's side upholstery
showing a rip and typical fading of the carpet and bezel finish.
The drivetrain has been verified as original to the car with only
service components being changed over the years as needed.
