1965 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe

While the Corvette has enjoyed nearly 70 years of continuous production, model year 1965 is particularly historic as the first for standard 4-wheel disc brakes and the availability of Chevrolet’s all-new Mark IV big-block engine. Delivering the stopping and firepower to take on the world’s best in international endurance racing, the 1965 Corvette stands tall as a watershed of sports-car performance development. This highly decorated example is an outstanding example of its storied breed.

Presenting in highly original condition, this 1965 Chevrolet Corvette has traveled a mere 16,822 miles and is still powered by its CCAS cylinder case certified, matching-numbers 396/425 HP RPO L78 V-8 engine and matching-numbers Muncie M20 4-speed manual transmission. It’s finished in a rare Milano Maroon exterior finish, complemented by a black interior with a host of options including A01 Tinted Glass, G81 Positraction, K66 Transistor Ignition, N11 Off-Road Exhaust, N36 Telescopic Steering Column, U69 AM/FM Radio, “spinner” wheel covers and eye-catching, 1960s-style, goldline Firestone nylon-cord tires.

A milestone in Corvette development, this high-specification award winner is worthy of the finest collections having been awarded Bloomington Gold Certification, Bloomington Gold Survivor Status and multiple NCRS Top Flight awards. It’s accompanied by a CCAS engine affirmation certificate, window sticker, warranty booklet and Protect-O-Plate, owner’s manual packet, awards and judging sheets.
