This 1964 Chevrolet Corvette convertible is powered by a fuel-injected L84 327ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission, and it was repainted in red approximately 20 years ago. The interior is trimmed in red and white, and equipment includes a removable hardtop, a white convertible soft top, 15″ steel wheels, a Positraction differential, power-assisted brakes, power windows, an AM/FM radio, and concealed headlights as well as a dual exhaust system exiting through the rear valance.
The fiberglass body was originally finished in Riverside Red (923) and was repainted in 2003 according to the seller. Features include a removable hardtop and a white convertible soft top as well as flip-up headlamps, fender vents, quad tail lamps, and chrome bumperettes. Paint chips are visible ahead of the left-front wheel and behind the left-rear wheel.
Silver-finished 15” steel wheels wear covers with faux knock-off spinners and are mounted with 205/75 Hankook radial tires. The C2 Corvette came standard with independent suspension using upper and lower control arms at the front and a three-link setup with a transverse leaf spring at the rear. Braking is handled by four-wheel power-assisted drums.
The cabin features two bucket seats upholstered in white vinyl along with red trim and carpets. Amenities include an AM/FM radio, power windows, and lap belts. Splits and tears are visible in the driver’s seat upholstery, and the seller notes the clock does not work.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, amperage, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 53k miles, approximately 5k of which were added under current ownership.
The 327ci L84 V8 featured factory Rochester fuel injection, a high-lift camshaft, and a rated output of 375 horsepower when new. Additional details include a chrome ignition cover and finned valve covers.
The engine stamping includes sequence 4107682. The RX suffix corresponds with a fuel injected, 375-horsepower, 327ci V8 for use with a manual transmission.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and an optional Positraction differential.
