Corvette Sting Ray was so good, why did we change it for '64? �€"
1964 Corvette magazine advertisement The copy in the ad went on to
explain: Almost nothing is so good it can't be improved-and the '64
Corvette Sting Ray (sic) proves it. That slippery aerodynamic shape
is smoother. A broad sweep of glass gives the Sport Coupe's rear
window better visibility. The cockpit enjoys new touches, from a
simulated walnut-rimmed steering wheel to the Sport Coupe's
interior ventilator that boosts air circulation. Corvette's ride is
as taut as ever. Suspension refinements give it supple new comfort
in city driving. We shut out road noise and shock with extra
sound-deadening materials, new body and transmission mounts. And
kept Corvette's roar alive with a choice of V8s from 290 up to 375
horsepower. Added a smoother new 4-speed shift... We rested on our
laurels with 4-wheel fully independent suspension and features like
retractable headlights. All these changes make Corvette an even
better car for '64. Offered here is a '64 Corvette convertible in
custom Butterscotch metallic over black. The car has been
respectfully upgraded, refreshed, and improved for 21st Century
driving, without sacrificing the character of this legendary
American sportscar. Showing 105,627 miles on its odometer, or just
1,850 mile per-year on average since new, this Stingray (or Sting
Ray as the ad put it) is ready for new roads, new adventures, and
lots more open-air fun. The metallic Butterscotch exterior paint-a
respray in this custom color color-was a perfect choice to
highlight the many unique and appealing design cues on the car. The
overall body shape, the sculpted hood, the reverse cut-outs on the
front fenders, the raised fender tops front and rear all show
beautifully. Paint gloss is excellent and perfectly uniform
throughout, including on lower-body surfaces. There is no body
damage, no fading, no discoloration. A white stinger hood graphic
complements the car's white-fabric convertible top. Factory
badging-including the crossed flags on the front fenders, hood, and
rear gas-filler cover-is all in place, properly located, and in
excellent condition. In similar fashion, chrome half-bumpers front
and rear retain excellent surface finish; other chrome trim is
equally well-kept. Side-exit exhausts with safety covers are
mounted. The lower front grille is undamaged. Cabin glass and
lighting lenses are clear and free of imperfections. American
Legend® 17-inch aluminum racing wheels with Corvette-flag-logo
center caps are pristine. Nexen® CP671 blackwall P215/55 tires are
mounted. Inside, the black upholstery is in near-perfect condition.
The vertically pleated design is classic. The matching black dash
showcases the twin-pod design unique to the C2 Corvette. The
original simulated wood-rimmed steering wheel (with brushed metal
trim and Corvette crossed-flags center emblem) frames the
driver-focused array of analog instruments, dominated by the
160-mph speedometer and 5,300-rpm-redline tachometer. Between the
dash pods, the gracefully designed center drop features an analog
clock above pull-lever controls for heat and ventilation, and the
vertically-mounted push-button Delco AM-FM radio beloved by
vintage-Corvette fans. Facing the passenger is the brushed-metal
panel on the glove-box cover and the script Corvette Sting Ray
badge. The center console houses th
