Powerful, polished, and poised, this 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible has
everything you want. That means V8 power, four-on-the-floor, and the undeniable
distinction of one of the best-looking classic sports cars ever.


A deep blue always looks good on a C2 convertible. After all, the Sting Ray
earned its name for looking like a smooth sea creature, and so it's great to have
this finished in the color of a tropical ocean wave. And the white convertible top
is its crest! Plus, 1965 was the first year of the completely smooth hood. It left
the Corvette free from a lot of ornamentation. The result is an elegantly restrained
use of chrome for '60s standards and one of smoothest bodies around. It also
means the remaining brightwork really stands out where utilized. So it's important
that it looks especially nice in places like the knock-off style wheels and the
iconic two-piece front and rear bumpers. Plus, we all know those bright side
pipes caught your eye.


The full black interior looks like it belongs in a performance machine like this.
This aggressively dark attitude looks particularly nice thanks to new covers on
the bucket seats. Plus, this really shows off its vintage flair, right down to the
details like the heater and AM/FM stereo. Your left hand grabs the three-spoke
wood rim sports steering wheel, and your right one will be instantly attracted
to the big chrome gearshift. And we all love to watch the gauges dance as you
take full advantage of what's in the engine bay.


Lift the hood, and you'll find a tidy and honest 327 cubic-inch V8. It also has
the correct features like the Chevy orange on the block, ram's horn exhaust, and
polished pie dish air cleaner and ignition shield adding a touch of flair. Plus, the
cursive Corvette script on the valve covers always looks good on a vintage
'Vette. On the road this motor has the right amount of snarl through the awesome
side pipes as you row through the four-speed. It's the kind of sound that's perfect
for a little Saturday night intimidation, and it also never gets old when spending
all-day Sunday driving the backroads. This great driving attitude is backed up
by power steering and the fully independent suspension. Plus, 1965 was the
first year for four-wheel disc brakes as standard: a big reason why these are the superior driving C2s.
