Vehicle Description
While this is already a value price for a 1965 Chevrolet Corvette
convertible, it's not the affordability that first struck you.
Instead it's this roadster full custom Mako Shark custom look that
makes this is distinctive, impressive, and absolutely
irresistible.
The C2 Corvette was born from Chevrolet's Mako Shark concept. And
while the Sting Ray was an impressive production adaptation, this
example gets us much closer to that dream car. The pointed
shark-like front end is a single piece for extra smoothness. And
this sleek and aggressive attitude flows to the rest of the custom
bodywork. You see it on the ZL1-style hood, extra wide fender
flares, and the nicely integrated rear spoiler. And the Ruby Red
Metallic paint helps highlight all these intimidating upgrades with
a deep shine. And while the overall presentation is instantly
memorable, don't forget to check out the custom details. You'll see
craftsman touches everywhere - from the triple-element taillights,
to the shark-like side gills with bold lines that continue into the
doors. There's even a color-matched hardtop to keep this one a
standout even when you don't feel like open-top motoring.
The white interior looks great against the exterior red. The dash
has even been completed in white to further highlight the iconic
dual cowl design. And while this is a custom machine, it's also
still a driver's car at its heart. So you get all the best elements
you love in a C2. This means comfortable bucket seats, a grippy
wood and chrome steering wheel, and a gearstick that seems to be
calling out for your right hand.
Under the hood is Chevy's legendary 327 cubic-inch V8. Even the
engine bay received some extra flair on this custom Corvette with
the polished air topper, Moroso valve covers, and alternator. More
importantly, it has been upgraded for extra power with the Carter
competition series four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer
intake, and headers that feed a growling set of side pipes. Plus,
you'll spot the right supporting components like braided hoses, a
newer metal fan, and electronic distributor. It's the ideal car for
the open road, and so you'll love taking full control of the V8 and
its thundering soundtrack with the Muncie M21 close-ratio
four-speed manual transmission. Plus, with the fully independent
suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, and wide BF Goodrich T/As, you
know this is classic is capable of some sharp moves.
This is the terrific looking and powerful custom classic that goes
beyond your wildest dreams. So don't miss a once-in-a-lifetime
chance. Call today!!!
