The second-generation Corvette, known as the C2 or Sting Ray, burst onto the scene in 1963, marking a dramatic departure from its predecessor. With its iconic split rear window (for 1963 only), hidden headlamps, and sleek, sculpted lines penned by Larry Shinoda and Peter Brock under Bill Mitchell's direction, it was an instant classic. The 1964 model year, while losing the split window, refined the C2's design and engineering, offering improved ventilation and minor styling tweaks. It continued to embody Chevrolet's vision of an American sports car that could compete with the best Europe had to offer, solidifying its place as a performance icon with a range of powerful V8 engines and a focus on driver engagement. This particular 1964 Corvette Coupe presents a compelling blend of classic aesthetics and thoughtful upgrades, showing 51,789 miles on the odometer. While originally a 1964 model, it has been refinished in the striking Nassau Blue, a color famously introduced on the 1965 Corvette, paired with a mint condition black interior. Under the hood lies a robust 350 cubic inch V8, enhanced with an Edelbrock aluminum intake and carburetor, and kept cool by an upgraded aluminum radiator. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a close-ratio Muncie 4-speed manual transmission, ensuring an engaging driving experience. Further performance enhancements include headers feeding a stainless steel exhaust, while true knock-off wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich radial tires complete the period-correct yet improved stance. This Sting Ray offers an opportunity to own a meticulously maintained and road-ready example of one of America's most beloved sports cars.
