Vehicle Description
When going classic Corvette shopping, the first thing you look for
is originality. So you'll be happy to read that this 1964 Chevrolet
Corvette Sting Ray coupe that caught your eye with its beautiful
paint is also a numbers-matching, four-speed car that was restored
to keep its factory specs inside and out.
Silver Blue is a great color on a collector Corvette. It was only
offered for two years on the C2, and it has a terrific look of an
ocean wave with precious metal undertones. It also helps that this
was given a thorough restoration that gives this special color a
deep gloss and shine. In fact, when the sunlight hits it, you'll
love how the finish highlights the crisp details that makes this
Sting Ray coupe legendary. Plus, this silver undertones are a nice
complement to the brightwork pieces like the rocker panel as well
as the two-piece front and rear bumpers. And as you're looking over
all the details, you can tell they kept this one with an eye for
originality, right down to the wheel covers.
It's hard to attract more attention in the interior of a light blue
car than with a dark blue interior. This festival of blue looks
great thanks to the carpets, door panels, and dashboard all looking
exceptionally clean. But as the driver, you'll really enjoy the
well-maintained bucket seats. Your left hand grabs the three-spoke
wood rim sports steering wheel, and beyond that is the full gauge
set with large speedometer and very useful tachometer. But your
right hand gets the real treat. The four-speed manual transmission
was the correct choice for your Corvette if you love to drive.
Plus, there's just something cool about grabbing the big chrome
leaver housed in the original chrome console. And just like the
exterior, the period-correct feeling goes right down to the
details, like the AM/FM stereo.
Lift the hood, and you'll find a beautifully honest 327 cubic-inch
V8. This is the numbers-matching unit of the Sting Ray's upgraded
L76 motor. Topped with a four-barrel carburetor, this was built for
higher compression and higher lift camshaft, and it was rated from
the factory at 365 horsepower. On the road, this motor has the
right amount of snarl through the dual exhaust pipes, and the
control of the original four-speed really lets you experience this
to the fullest. It's the kind experience that's perfect for a
little Saturday night intimidation, but it never gets old when
spending all-day Sunday driving the backroads. This great driving
attitude is backed up by power brakes and the fully-independent
front suspension.
Complete with owner's manual, this is the distinguished and speedy
classic that sticks to its iconic looks. It makes for a truly
desirable Corvette that you can take home today. Call now!
