Description
The 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible is a timeless classic that makes car enthusiasts’ hearts beat faster. Chevrolet introduced the Corvette in 1953 as a two-seater sports car, a bold move for a brand that until then was primarily known for family cars. With its striking fiberglass body designed by Harley Earl and reliable GM engineering, the Corvette made its mark. The rest is history. Rightfully one of the greatest American icons.
In 1963, the completely redesigned Sting Ray was introduced, complete with a new ladder-type chassis. For the first time, a Gran Turismo coupe was also available. The development of the Corvette progressed slowly but steadily, marked by annual facelifts and some significant technical improvements. In 1965, the long-awaited disc brakes all around arrived, a major advancement for driving characteristics. The standard 327ci (5. 4-liter) V8 engine with 250 hp was joined by the optional 396ci (6. 5-liter) Big Block, which was replaced in 1966 by the even more powerful 427ci engine.
