The second-generation Corvette, universally known as the Sting Ray, burst onto the scene in 1963, marking a radical departure from its C1 predecessor. Penned by the legendary Bill Mitchell, Larry Shinoda, and Peter Brock, its aerodynamic, sculptured lines and hidden headlamps became an instant icon of American automotive design. The C2 also introduced independent rear suspension, transforming the Corvette's handling dynamics from a boulevard cruiser to a serious sports car. For 1964, Chevrolet refined the Sting Ray, addressing minor gripes from its debut year while retaining its groundbreaking aesthetics and performance. The optional fuel injection system, a cutting-edge technology for its era, was a highly desirable and relatively rare feature, elevating the potent 327 cubic-inch V8 to an impressive 375 horsepower and solidifying the Corvette's status as a true performance machine. This stunning 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible embodies the spirit of that golden age. Showing a believed-actual 40,000 miles, this example benefits from an older restoration that has been thoughtfully maintained and recently refreshed. Under the hood lies the venerable 5.4L (327ci) V8, now equipped with a period-correct Rochester mechanical fuel injection system, delivering power through a precise manual transmission. The interior has been meticulously redone, featuring new carpet and door panels over a Dynamat sound and heat barrier, ensuring a comfortable and refined cabin experience. With its excellent convertible top, recently replaced windshield, and a professional sorting of its mechanicals, including new brake pads and a precise tune, this Sting Ray is poised for its next chapter. This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented example of one of America's most beloved sports cars.
