1965 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible Project Car

1965 Chevrolet Corvette Description

1965 Corvette convertible project car. Original VIN and trim tag, clear title. This car should be considered a major project, as it will need a complete body-off restoration. Most all of the original parts will need be restored or replaced. I was told the car had a carburetor fire in the mid-70's, the damaged front end was removed and the car stored in an old barn, until purchased in 2019.
Original Glen Green (G-G) paint (badly faded), Dark Green (430B) vinyl interior. NOM, originally was a 327/250 or 300hp, Powerglide, Power Steering, Power Brakes and Power Windows. A partially dis-assembled 1962 283 short block, is currently in the car. The speedometer shows 41,121 miles, car still has the early 1st design brake calipers.
The frame is badly rusted in front of the rear wheels and the passenger side #3 body mount. A good used C3 automatic frame is included in this auction, for a C2 conversion, with power steering, all suspension and 3:08 posi. The lower windshield frame is also rusted, at the A-pillars, the inner and outer sections will need repair or replacement.
All parts included in this auction, are shown on the car. A used older 1 piece, hand laid front end (early Ecklers?, just has screws holding it in place), used original 1965 hood and aftermarket hardtop. No other parts will be included, in this auction. Please look at the pictures and ask any questions, as the car is "Sold As Is".
