Export Car: Non Export Car
Engine details: ORIGINAL 327/250 hp! The documentation notes an engine rebuild in 1971, a head and piston job in 1985, a paint job in 1987, and a head job in 2004. In 2016, an Edelbrock Performer intake and a Holley 650 carburetor were added to improve drivability. That said, if you are an NCRS collector and want to take Sadie entirely back to stock and pick up an NCRS or Bloomington certification, we kept the original intake, carb and valve covers.
Other details: Sadie is a timeless, numbers matching, almost entirely original, 1964 Corvette Stingray convertible dressed in her original, highly desirable color combo: SATIN SILVER exterior with BLACK interior. It is worth noting that only 12.5 percent of production in 1964 came in the sought after Satin Silver! Sadie is drop dead sexy from every angle and she turns heads everywhere you go! So sexy, in fact, that in 2017 Sadie was paired up with a Victoria's Secret supermodel for a photo shoot for Vince Camuto's Spring/Summer 2018 campaign!

Sadie has been kept in EXTRAORDINARY CONDITION throughout her entire life! She has her original, numbers matching, 327ci/250hp engine, her original, smooth shifting Muncie 4 speed transmission (code: M20), and her original 3.08:1 positraction rear end (codes: G81 & G91 - which were factory upgrades in '64; only 10 percent came with the 3.08 option!). She drives strong, brakes straight, and is a BLAST to cruise in!

Sadie has power windows (code: A31 - only 16 percent came with this), a walnut steering wheel, and the original hard top (code: C07 - less than 1/3rd came with this and fewer still have them today!). Her radio works perfectly and her wiper motor was restored in 2016. She has embroidered C2 Corvette floor mats and rides on period-correct, Goodyear whitewall tires.

Perhaps Sadie's most unique characteristic is her documentation -- and we have many binders documenting her story! The documentation includes the original ORDER FORM, ARRIVAL NOTIFICATION LETTER, DEALER INVOICE AND FIRST REGISTRATION! We also have Sadie's ORIGINAL 1964 owners manual, which has been signed by Larry Shinoda (Corvette's designer) and Zora Arkus-Duntov (Corvette's engineer, often called The Father of the Corvette)!
