For Sale: 1964 Chevrolet Corvette in Lutz, Florida

Vehicle Description

This 1964 Chevrolet Corvette convertible keeps the iconic C2 silhouette, but it has a modern LS based engine lurking within. So the sleek modern paint, upgraded A/C interior, overdrive transmission, and other custom details love to help announce this Sting Ray is a unique and loaded restomod.

This Corvette loves to give hints at the modern car that lies beneath the surface. It begins with the paint. The color feels like a combination of Sunset Orange and Atomic Orange - both were popular on the C6 Corvette (a hint at what's under the hood.) It has the radiant style of a quality professional application with plenty of metallic. So the finish and the rear bumper give the kind of shine that's ideal for a sunshine-friendly convertible. Notice that we didn't mention the front bumper, because it has been deleted to give this Sting Ray an even cleaner front end that looks like it wants to inhale the lesser cars ahead. More of the aggression comes with the well-coordinated dark side that highlights some of the sportiest pieces, like the big block hood, upgraded 15-inch wheels, and the side pipes. Even the folding roof goes with this package (a hardtop frame-only can also be made available for purchase if so desired.)

As good as this looks with the coordinating top in place, it gets even better when you take it down. Burnt orange and black both are used for the custom interior, and so this convertible has a harmonious appearance inside and out. This has a clean look of a driver-ready car, and you even have nice features like an AM/FM radio and cold-blowing air conditioning. Like a proper Corvette, this is built around you. So you have classic driver-oriented pieces like bucket seats and a wood-rimmed steering wheel. These are joined by nice upgrades like a B&M ratchet shifter and a full set of AutoMeter Sport-Comp gauges.

Under the hood is an awesome LS based Vortec 6.0L fuel-injected iron block V8 upgrade. This motor makes a lot of sense in this Sting Ray. The C2 was the building block for larger motor Corvettes, but the next few generations would all end with 350ci/5.7-liter motors. The C6 Corvette reinvigorated the displacement with the debut of the 6.0-liter V8. And this modern powerhouse loves to make sure it can give a classic muscle car growl when it wants thanks to Hooker Super Competition headers and side pipes. But the engine upgrade was not just about creating a pure power machine. The fuel-injected and computer-controlled motor is quite versatile. So you can have a nice in-town cruiser that even has a smooth-shifting 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. And if you really want to unleash the beast, you prod the accelerator for big power and rumble on demand. Front discs and the fully independent sports suspension make for an excellent all-around driver's classic.

This is the sharp-looking and sharp-driving C2 that has been thoughtfully upgraded in all the best ways. Call today!!!
