From the Greg Grams C-2 luxury and comfort Corvette collection. Greg started selling these corvettes in the early 70s as used cars and kept selling them as they became collector items. Recently he has assembled an impressive collection of 1963-1967 Corvettes focusing on air-conditioned coupes. He has run each one through our shop and they are very functional and dialed in ready to enjoy. He took the time to assemble display boards with miscellaneous literature, NCRS shipping reports, window stickers and more. Each car comes with a jack and spare. Since the early 70s when he started collecting, these cars have not been known to go down in value. Drive an investment!

Loaded with options and appeal! #s match and restored like factory new. Don't take my word, it has won an NCRS Top Flight award 3 times! Well, you can also take my word because we have checked the numbers and codes too.

It has a detailed owner history:
It was sold new at Duff Chevrolet, Gilroy CA on January 26th 1965. It was a birthday present from Dr Paddock to his wife Stella. She owned the car until 1996, a total of 31 years. We even have a picture of her in the car. She and her new husband traded it in to Corvette Mike in Anaheim CA on a brand new 1996 Corvette, they were given an $11,000 credit for the car. Corvette Mike sold the car on August 26th, 1996 to the 2nd owner Richard Weirick, a 68 year old man. He sells the car 14 years later in 2010 when he's 82. Then it goes on to have a couple more owners, it leaves California for the first time in 2013. The 5th owner went on to have the car judged and it earned 3 Top Flight awards.

EXTERIOR: Stunning good looks! Take a minute to admire the body lines then look at what the coupe adds to the beauty. The sloped back boattail rear with a curved window is killer. The body on this car is excellent. I did not see any cracks or damage. The doors fit spot on and close like a new car. The headlights open and close properly. Repainted its original Regal Red color which is polished to a smooth glossy finish. The paint job will make your mouth water although there are some minor flaws if you look for them. The chrome sparkles, the glass is clear. The optional side exhaust looks new, it also sounds amazing! Of course, the knock off wheels are a "knock out"! They also look new and are wearing reproduction BFG Silvertown redline tires.

INTERIOR: It is in excellent shape and has some very desirable features. My favorite is the genuine leather upholstery on the seats which is in excellent shape. A very close 2nd is the beautiful teakwood wheel on a rare telescopic column. Then there's the power windows which makes life a little easier and makes this car that much more special. The most expensive option is the automatic trans which makes driving effortless. The entire dash area: dash pads, gauges, knobs, glovebox are all excellent. The gauges all work including the clock. It has its original Am-Fm radio and seatbelts. Fresh carpet front to back. The jack and lead hammer for the spinners are in the rear compartment. Overhead is mint too. Interior lights work.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It looks just like it would have in 1965, correct and detailed. It has its original VIN matching 327-300 hp motor. We even verified the casting codes and dates on the back of the motor. It has stock manifolds, valve covers, dual snorkel air cleaner and ignition shielding. It has the correct carb, choke tube and fuel filter. The cooling system looks correct and clean. It has reproduction hoses and clamps. Power steering and brakes are two more very desirable options. This car is a pleasure to drive, not a chore!

UNDERSIDE: It looks like a frame off restoration it's so clean under here. The frame and chassis components are smooth California metal with a semi-gloss black finish. The floors are raw fiberglass in excellent shape. It has independent suspension front and back which looks completely rebuilt. The steering looks rebuilt too. This is the first year for disc brakes and it is at all 4 wheels. The e-brake is hooked up. Looking up at the motor it is spotless Chevy Orange and has the correct canister type oil filter and lower ignition shielding. The Powerglide automatic trans is spotless, I am sure it was out and serviced or rebuilt. It has its correct rear end with 3.36 gears.

SERVICE: We inspected this car and it passed with flying colors, all we had to do was repair a wire to the Amp gauge!
