Car history: |
Posted 11/29/2019
1964 Chevrolet Corvette coupe with the original 327 cubic inch V8 with a 4 speed transmission. This car has been mildly modified with hardened valve seats to accommodate the use of unleaded fuel and has a Flowmaster exhaust. Painted in 2014 in the current beautiful medium gray metallic, the finish shows a glassy smoothness.
After the introduction of the C2 Corvette in 1963, in 1964 Chevrolet made only evolutionary changes to the Corvette. Besides the coupe's backbone window, the two simulated air intakes were eliminated from the hood, though their indentations remained. Also, the decorative air-exhaust vent on the coupe's rear pillar was made functional, but only on the left side, the fuel filler/deck emblem gained concentric circles around its crossed-flags insignia.
Inside, the original color-keyed steering wheel rim was now done in simulated walnut. A few suspension refinements were made for 1964. The front coil springs were changed from constant-rate to progressive or variable-rate and were more tightly wound at the top, while leaf thickness of the rear transverse spring was also altered thus providing a more comfortable ride with no sacrifice in handling. Shock absorbers were reworked toward the same end. Chevy added more sound insulation and revised body and transmission mounts for the 1964 Corvette. It also fitted additional bushings to quiet the shift linkage and placed a new boot around the lever. The result was a more livable car for everyday transportation. |
