The second-generation Corvette, universally known as the "C2" or "Mid-Year," burst onto the scene in 1963, a radical departure from its C1 predecessor. Designed by Larry Shinoda under the guidance of Bill Mitchell, the Sting Ray introduced an independent rear suspension, a sleeker, more aerodynamic profile, and a newfound sophistication that cemented its place as America's true sports car. The 1964 model year, the second iteration of the C2, refined the initial design, eliminating the divisive split rear window and offering a range of powerful small-block V8 engines that delivered exhilarating performance. These early C2s, particularly those equipped with potent engine and desirable option combinations, are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate their timeless design and legendary driving dynamics. This 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe stands out as a truly exceptional example, boasting a rare and desirable factory specification. It is one of just 243 Corvettes produced that year with the formidable L76 327 cubic-inch V8, rated at 365 horsepower, paired with factory air conditioning – a premium and uncommon option for a performance-oriented machine of its era. Showing 88,125 miles, this manual transmission coupe is presented in its original 940 Satin Silver paint over a black standard interior, a classic and striking combination. The car rides on period-correct knock-off wheels, completing its authentic Mid-Year aesthetic. The seller notes excellent paint and chrome, with all bonding strips intact, and all features, including the clock, in working order. The engine is a 327, with casting number 3791362 and a CE 8 23912 stamp, indicating a warranty replacement engine. This is an opportunity to acquire a meticulously maintained and factory-optioned C2 Corvette, ready for its next discerning owner.
