DESCRIPTION
From the Greg Grams C-2 luxury and comfort Corvette collection. Greg started selling these corvettes in the early 70s as used cars and kept selling them as they became collector items. Recently he has assembled an impressive collection of 1963-1967 Corvettes focusing on air conditioned coupes. He has run each one through our shop and they are very functional and dialed in ready to enjoy. He took the time to assemble display boards with miscellaneous literature, NCRS shipping reports, window stickers and more. Each car comes with a jack and spare. Since the early 70s when he started collecting, these cars have not been known to go down in value. Drive an investment!
Stunning color combination! California car loaded with luxury options including factory a/c, power steering, power brakes and more. #s matching driveline. NCRS Top Flight winner in 2001 and 2005. That means Corvette judges closely inspected the originality of this car and gave it passed with top honors. It also has an NCRS shipping report, it was sold new on Dec 30th 1964 at Moriarty Chevrolet, Watsonville CA
EXTERIOR: One of the best designed bodies ever! It\'s even better being a coupe; the boattail rear and curved window is awesome. Sleek hidden headlights upfront with correct T-3 bulbs. The body is in excellent shape, no damage and it fits right. The doors shut like a new car. Repainted its original Nassau Blue and although it is an older paint job with imperfections it shows really well. It has its original glass including the windshield. The chrome and trim shines nice. The knock off wheels are a knock out! It has radial Goldline tires that look great too.
INTERIOR: The white against the blue is killer! I\'m sitting in the car right now and these bright white seats also have new cushions. I\'m looking at a beautiful teakwood wheel too. The entire dash area is excellent: gauges, knobs, dash pads etc. the gauges all work, the clock was rebuilt with quartz movement. Very slight staining on the front carpet with fresh matching mats. Rear carpet is excellent. In the rear compartment it has a jack and lead hammer for the spinners. The door panels, headliner and visors are a pristine white. The interior lights all work.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Original VIN number matching 327-300 hp. It has stock manifolds, valve covers, dual snorkel air cleaner and ignition shielding. The carb, fuel filter and choke tube are correct. The factory air conditioning is the star of the show, it cost 10% of the price of the car when it was new! It blows cold and has been upgraded with modern Freon. Other features include power steering and brakes. Everything looks clean and proper.
UNDERSIDE: It is exceptionally clean! The original raw fiberglass floors are in excellent shape. The spare tire carrier looks great too. The frame and chassis components are solid, smooth metal. It is independent suspension front and back which look like they have been rebuilt. The power steering looks new. It is the first year for disc brakes and it has them at all four wheels. They look fresh and work great. The e-brake is hooked up. It has a chambered exhaust system that sounds like side exhaust. Looking up at the motor it is spotless Chevy Orange and has correct canister oil filter, lower ignition shielding and a fresh starter. The Powerglide automatic shifts smooth. In back is the original rear end dated and coded to this car.
SERVICE: We inspected the car and replaced the vacuum modular on the trans, charged the a/c, replaced rear leaf links and right lateral arm.
I fall in love with each one of these Vettes as I write the ads. Right now, this is my favorite, the colors are what first hits you. Then realizing it has air conditioning, power steering, power disc brakes and an automatic trans, boy what a pleasure to drive. Then of course the logical side loves that it is #s matching. Having 2 Top Flight awards sets the mind at ease too. Enjoy an investment!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car\'s condition in detail. **These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year membership.
