pleased to offer this Corvette Stingray presented in Milano Maroon
with Black leather interior. This Corvette is a desirable 327/375HP
Fuelie with a M22 4-speed manual transmission and is all numbers

car and replaced with a carbureted system. The original fuel
injection system does still come with the car however. This

described as high level driver. The 98,825 are believed to be

historian and "Fuelie" expert Jim Gessler, who purchased the car
from the original owner in 1969. The car spent most of its life in
Southern California. Other specs include: Edelbrock 4 barrel

injected corvettes, with only 771 made. This rare example was
fitted from the factory with the transistor ignition fuel injection
system, which added 10 more HP. 1965 was the first year that the
Corvette came with 4-wheel disc brakes. The original fuel injection
system was replaced recently in 2022 with a more reliable 4 barrel
carburetor. However, If the new owners wishes, we can deliver the
car with the original fuel injection system re-installed. Your
inspection is invited!
