Overview of 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod For Sale by Owner

Fast forward to 2020, and the eighth generation of the model is generating strong sales, having undergone an evolution in the shape of a mid-mounted engine. Corvettes are universally loved, and appreciated. Some people love them in stock form, some modify them in degrees ranging from mild to wild, and there’s the restomod community. This 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Restomod is one such example. Coming from New York with just 11,555 miles, and is a complete, body-off restomod with OEM-correct numbered parts. Read on to find out why it deserves a place on your driveway or in your car port.

Exterior and Interior

The C2 Corvette, produced between 1963 and 1967 would bring about the iconic pop-up headlamps and the hallowed Stingray name. The penmanship of Larry Shinoda, this 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Restomod wears a lustrous red color that’s been primed, sealed, and finished off with urethane paint. It rolls on a set of modern Z06 wheels wrapped in low profile tires. All chromework has been painstakingly restored and gleam to their best in the sunshine. The interior sports a tan color theme with seating for two occupants, and chromed details such as window winders and door pulls. Whilst the gauges look retro-styled, they are a modern set of Dakota Digital units. Pop the glove box on the cockpit-styled dual-hooped dash in front of the passenger seat, and you find a modern Kenwood head unit with CD, Bluetooth, USB, and AUX options that plays through no less than eight speakers.

Engine

This 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Restomod is powered by a modern Chevrolet LS3 6.2L V8 engine that’s been further massaged by a Procharger supercharger for even more power. Drive is sent to the rear wheels via a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. Steeroids Power Steering Package by Steeroids Direct, whilst braking has seen an upgrade too, in the shape of Wilwood calipers and rotors, which grip ventilated disc brakes, as part of a Hydroboost brake system. All four wheels have been blessed with adjustable Sharkbite coilover suspension to ensure that handling can match the increased power and stopping prowess.

$55,000

Few American performance cars have the visual drama of an early C3 Corvette, and this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod adds a serious dose of big-block attitude to that already iconic shape. Showing approximately 58,617 miles, it wears Tuxedo Black over a Black interior and keeps the unmistakable low-slung proportions, removable T-tops, and cockpit-style cabin that made the third-generation Corvette such a standout. The real story, though, is under the hood, where a 467ci V8 built from a 454ci block brings the car well beyond factory specification. With the current owner reporting 609 HP and 597 LB-FT of torque on 91 octane, this is the kind of Corvette built for someone who wants classic C3 style with considerably more muscle behind the throttle.
