1965 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible Description

While this is already a value price for a 1965 Chevrolet Corvette convertible, it's not the affordability that first struck you. Instead it's this roadster full custom Mako Shark custom look that makes this is distinctive, impressive, and absolutely irresistible. The C2 Corvette was born from Chevrolet's Mako Shark concept. And while the Sting Ray was an impressive production adaptation, this example gets us much closer to that dream car. The pointed shark-like front end is a single piece for extra smoothness. And this sleek and aggressive attitude flows to the rest of the custom bodywork. You see it on the ZL1-style hood, extra wide fender flares, and the nicely integrated rear spoiler. And the Ruby Red Metallic paint helps highlight all these intimidating upgrades with a deep shine. And while the overall presentation is instantly memorable, don't forget to check out the custom details. You'll see craftsman touches everywhere â€" from the triple-element taillights, to the shark-like side gills with bold lines that continue into the doors. There's even a color-matched hardtop to keep this one a standout even when you don't feel like open-top motoring. The white interior looks great against the exterior red. The dash has even been completed in white to further highlight the iconic dual cowl design. And while this is a custom machine, it's also still a driver's car at its heart. So you get all the best elements you love in a C2. This means comfortable bucket seats, a grippy wood and chrome steering wheel, and a gearstick that seems to be calling out for your right hand. Under the hood is Chevy's legendary 327 cubic-inch V8. Even the engine bay received some extra flair on this custom Corvette with the polished air topper, Moroso valve covers, and alternator. More importantly, it has been upgraded for extra power with the Carter competition series four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer intake, and headers that feed a growling set of side pipes. Plus, you'll spot the right supporting components like braided hoses, a newer metal fan, and electronic distributor. It's the ideal car for the open road, and so you'll love taking full control of the V8 and its thundering soundtrack with the Muncie M21 close-ratio four-speed manual transmission.
