Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to present this
1965 Chevrolet Corvette, a beautifully upgraded classic that blends
unmistakable C2 styling with serious modern performance. Finished
in a striking red and black exterior, this Corvette has the kind of
presence that makes people stop and look twice. The aggressive
stance is complemented by American Racing wheels wrapped in
BFGoodrich tires, while the side-exit exhaust adds the perfect
finishing touch to its bold roadster attitude.
Inside, the red leather seats, dash, and door panels create a
vibrant and classic Corvette cockpit, balanced nicely by black
carpeting. A billet and wood steering wheel adds a custom touch,
while the working clock keeps a bit of vintage charm alive. For
audio, this Corvette is equipped with a RetroSound radio paired
with a Nertz subwoofer, giving the cabin an upgraded sound
experience without taking away from the classic feel.
Under the hood, this Corvette is powered by a 6.2L LS3 V8 engine,
which the owner claims produces 480 horsepower. Paired with a
Tremec 5-speed manual transmission, this car delivers a driving
experience that is engaging, responsive, and built for someone who
enjoys being connected to the road. An aluminum radiator with an
electric fan helps keep things cool, while the side-exit exhaust
gives the LS3 the kind of sound a Corvette deserves. Power is sent
to a PosiTrac rear end with 3.70:1 gears, giving this classic
plenty of attitude when it is time to get moving.
This Corvette is also equipped with Wilwood brakes and drilled and
slotted rotors, offering upgraded stopping power to match the
performance under the hood. Power steering and power brakes help
make the drive more manageable, while power windows add a welcome
touch of convenience. Air conditioning helps keep the cabin
comfortable, and the manual convertible top, along with the
retractable hardtop, gives you the option to enjoy open-air
cruising or a more enclosed classic Corvette experience.
The owner claims that he is the third owner of this Corvette,
adding another interesting piece to the car's story. With its
classic 1965 Corvette design, LS3 power, 5-speed manual
transmission, upgraded braking system, custom interior touches, and
strong visual presence, this Corvette is a standout example of how
timeless styling and modern performance can come together in one
exciting package.
