1965 Corvette Convertible 427 M22 411s

1965 Chevrolet Corvette Description

This is my 1965 Corvette convertible that I have been working on since 2011, I built the car to my liking and have over 30,000.00 in receipts alone not including the original purchase price of the car.I finished it this spring and have put about 400 miles on it since,Small road trips so far, shaking her down and have had no major issues, Some of the larger ticket items on this build would be,the purchase and complete professional rebuild of a 1969 corvette 427-435HP engine, complete rear coilover conversion kit from Van Steel $2600.00 that include the offset rear trailing arms,Tubular front a-arms with coilovers $2300.00, Wilwood slotted and drilled big brake system was over 3000.00 alone,purchase and rebuild of an original M-22 Rockcrusher transmission,rear end was professionally rebuilt and has low gearing in it 411s, Hooker chrome headers with the large 4" sidepipes give that 427 an awe sum deep tone.I did not remove the body but did a complete frame on restoration of the car that includes every nut and bolt and every single system.I did not restore the body,. I left it alone besides giving a buffing to get some shine out of it, paint is fair driver condition has chips and some flaking, small cracks but still looks great from 10' away, I liked the patina so i left the body alone, super solid frame that I used por-15 on, cleaned the underside of body and detailed, everything on frame was rebuilt or restored,has Power steering and Power brakes also, all new wiring harnesses, complete interior restoration,Car has a telescopic column that I restored and I purchased an original yes original very rare Teakwood steering wheel very very nice wheel, gauges were NOS, clock was a quartz conversion, Tachometer is not connected as the distributor was non tach drive, that was something I was going to change, I don't like the radio I purchased, it is a custom autosound that is crap, usb works sometimes radio seems also to skip, another item I would change out, I customized a set of 2004 Z06 seats that sit and feel great in the car, new soft top, the list goes on and on but u get the idea, I was building the car for myself so overlooked nothing, getting older and have other interests so want to see what kind of interest I will get on it.There is NO title with this car, Maine does not require titles on the older autos so you will need to see what you need from your state,will come with a bill of sale only, NO TITLE and I do not want to trade anythin, if it sells cash or wire transfer only. Also the buyer would have the option of purchasing separately another rear end with 370 gears if you want to change the gears out and also an original 1967 black vinyl hardtop.
