Mechanical This Corvette just exudes originality and Corvette small
block performance from the minute you open the hood and see the
casting number on the back of the block #3858174 327-cubic-inch V8
engine in it. This engine gives sprightly around-town performance
and cruises at highway speeds at no more than an easy loaf. Those
327�€�s had new cylinder heads with bigger inlet valves, used
hydraulic valve lifters, wedge-type combustion chambers, long-life
rams head cast iron exhaust manifolds, dual exhaust system, and a
4-barrel carb. Ours has the chrome open air cleaner, chrome valve
covers, orange painted block, H.D. radiator, and backed by a Muncie
4-speed and a nice chassis with all the great parts. Interior This
Sting Ray offers a completely luxurious driving environment. For
1965, the interior features new trim of durable expanded vinyl with
a more subtle texture of white and has individual twin bucket-type
seats that have a factory bolster-like design for more seating
comfort and better lateral support. The red/white/black theme
extends to the black carpet, white door panels, and dual sun visors
with controls for the outside-air-type heater and defroster located
on the central console along with chrome 4-speed shifter and the
electrical clock and radio controls and vent controls that are
located under the instrument panel on each side of the steering
column. In the red dash is a matched speedometer and tachometer are
the primary instruments in the Sting Ray with a re-settable trip
odometer, head-light switch, radio, head-lamp retractor switch,
hood release, and four-position ignition switch to complete the
instrument panel with the great black steering wheel also. Exterior
The styling changes on our 1965 Sting Ray are beautiful and ours is
covered with its bright red paint job flowing over the hood and
louvers behind the front wheels that help increase air flow through
the engine compartment, giving it both an aggressive and
sophisticated look. All the emblems, the bumpers and taillights,
door handles, the flip-up gas cap, and the white convertible top
remain in great condition as well as the correct 15-inch Rallye
wheels with chrome trim rings and caps and BF Goodrich raised white
letter Radial TA tires which give it a great ride with superior
handling. Conclusion More than ever previously, the 1965 Chevrolet
