| 1965 Chevrolet Corvette L75 327 / 300HP |
| This 1965 Chevrolet Corvette has a nice survivor story and includes the numbers-matching L75 V8 and four-speed. More than just a barn find, it also has the right signs of investment for those who would like a survivor who's also a driver. The story we're told on this Sting Ray is that it was parked around 1972 and resurrected in 2012. That's why the actual miles odometer is so low. There are even little extras, like a fuel log book, to help document the mileage and show this was enthusiast-owned. We all like a good barn find tale like this, especially when the appearance does the talking for us. The Rally Red paint has been reapplied similar to the original factory application. You have the right stock pieces looking good with just the right amount of age to further this car's unique story. It includes chrome bumpers, hidden headlights, ribbed rockers, and stock wheel covers. On the inside, it's a detailed survivor, right down to the working interior light and power windows. But there are also the correct details to remain a true cruiser, including the good-looking seat covers. The sports steering wheel, telescopic column, bright shifter, and full gauges-with large speedo and tach-deliver that ideal driver's car feeling. This was born an L75-spec car. It gave you a healthy upgrade in power over the standard 327 cubic-inch V8. It was a great option when new, so it's great to have the numbers-matching motor under the hood today. We were also told that the engine was rebuilt about two years ago with less than 500 miles. This is reaffirmed by the right newer-looking components and a fundamentally strong-running nature. And you have a proper console over this V8 with its numbers-matching four-speed manual transmission. And speaking of control, you have a fully independent suspension, and this was the year the Corvette introduced four-wheel disc brakes, which have been gone through for the new owner. Complete with maintenance records, this is a remarkable, number-matching StingRay convertible. And while you may want to make additional investments if you're looking to drive to the far-away Corvette events, you also instantly understand the level of appeal of something that's both preserved and distinct at first glance.
