Vehicle Description
This is a very nice example of a C2 Sting Ray. It has been
repainted in its factory original color and meticulously restored
with some very nice upgraded performance enhancing features. It is
a very nice car and one certainly worth taking a deep look at it.
Check it out.
The fastback Stingray body style is stunning to begin with, and
Silver Blue Metallic is arguably one of the prettiest colors that
it was ever coated with. This is the original code 912A paint that
the car was delivered with new and while the paint was recoated a
while back, it was obviously done right because it looks like it
was just completed. The bullet like front end has a crossed racing
flag emblem on the front of the spear that disappears back into the
hood scoop. Hideaway headlights mesh with the sharp leading edge
when they are tucked, and do their rotational dance to provide
light at night. Chrome dresses out the front of the car with a
horizontal grill and the split front bumpers. A flip up fuel cap is
centered on the rear of the V-shaped fastback and a Corvette Sting
Ray badge appears on the right rear. Taillights are trimmed in
chrome along with another sharp looking split bumper and chrome
tailpipes peek out through the lower valence.
Open the door and you will find a Blue interior that is the perfect
compliment to the Silver Blue paint. The door panel itself has a
pleated upper section and a smooth lower with chrome piping between
the two. The bucket seats are black, look great with the blue
interior, and are comfortable with pleated seating surfaces and
smooth side bolsters. A wood tone, three spoke steering wheel has a
crossed racing flag center button and sits in front of the driver's
side of the classic Corvette double hump dashboard. Tucked under
that dash cowl is a 160-mph speedometer on the left with a tach on
the right and smaller gauges for the engine functions in the left
and right lower corners. The central tower of controls contains the
knobs for the ventilation system as well as a clock and a
vertically mounted radio. A shifter for the manual transmission
indicates 5-speeds and is the first sign of some performance
enhancements to be found under the hood.
Pop the hood, fold it forward and you will find a new GM crate 383
stroker motor nestled down in a neat and clean engine bay. It is
colorful with a blue free flow air filter along with blue Aeroquip
fittings for fuel and coolant. A 4-barrel carburetor feeds an
Edelbrock intake manifold as well as Edelbrock heads topped by
black valve covers with a red bowtie and Chevrolet lettered in
white. Adding to the show is a chrome alternator, billet pulleys,
and a Wilwood master cylinder. Headers get the spent gases out and
flowing back through Magnaflow mufflers while the power this motor
makes is sent back through a Tremec 5 speed transmission to a rear
end outfitted with 3.36 gears. Everything under this car is as
clean as the top with a powder coated frame and components, new
bushings throughout, and Bilstein shocks. The rubber meets the road
through 235/60R15s in the back and 225/60R15s in the front mounted
on 5-spoke alloy wheels that look awesome on this Sting Ray.
Sharp looking, fast and fun. Come on down and take a look for
yourself.
