The second-generation Corvette, known as the C2 or "Sting Ray," arrived in 1963 as a radical departure from its predecessor. Designed by Larry Shinoda under the guidance of Bill Mitchell, it introduced an iconic fastback coupe with a split rear window (for 1963 only) and a sleeker, more aerodynamic convertible. The C2 quickly became a symbol of American performance, offering a range of potent small-block V8 engines and an independent rear suspension that transformed the Corvette's handling. By 1965, the Sting Ray was hitting its stride, introducing four-wheel disc brakes as standard and offering the legendary big-block 396ci V8 for the first time, though the robust small-block remained a popular choice for its balance of power and agility. This particular 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible presents in the stunning Nassau Blue, a color that perfectly evokes the era and the car's sporty intentions. With a title-verified 92,183 actual miles, this numbers-matching example has been cherished by its current owner since 2001. During their stewardship, thoughtful upgrades have been made, including the addition of power steering for enhanced drivability, a period-correct teak steering wheel, a new soft top, fresh tires, and a comprehensive rebuild of the rear suspension, ensuring this classic handles as well as it looks. This Nassau Blue Sting Ray offers a fantastic opportunity to experience the golden age of American sports cars.
