| Finished in Elegant Tuxedo Black over a crisp white interior with a matching white soft top, this beautifully restored 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible represents elegance and performance that defined the mid-year Corvette era. According to its NCRS shipping data, this Corvette was produced on November 13, 1963, and delivered new to Frank Gayman Chevrolet in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, adding a documented chapter of early provenance to its impressive presentation.
This Corvette has recently benefited from a comprehensive frame-on restoration completed in 2026, during which the chassis components and suspension were completely refurbished to ensure excellent drivability and structural integrity while maintaining the authentic character of the car. The result is a Corvette that blends classic appearance with carefully selected performance and reliability upgrades.
Power comes from a Chevrolet Performance ZZ crate engine featuring aluminum cylinder heads, an aluminum intake manifold, and a Holley carburetor, delivering strong, responsive performance while retaining a traditional small-block appearance. The engine bay is both functional and visually impressive, highlighted by polished Billet Specialties aluminum valve covers, a chrome air cleaner, Polished aluminum Air Conditioning Compresor, Chrome Internally Regulated Alternator, and a chrome master cylinder with matching brake booster.
The driving experience has been significantly enhanced with several well-chosen upgrades. Four-wheel disc brakes provide modern stopping capability, while a Borgeson steering box improves steering precision and feel. A fiberglass rear spring further refines the suspension, offering improved ride quality and handling characteristics compared to the original steel component. For added comfort, the Corvette is equipped with air conditioning from Classic Car Air, making it far more enjoyable during warm-weather cruising.
Visually, the Corvette remains true to its classic roots. It rides on bolt-on style wheels fitted with Firestone bias-ply whitewall tires, a combination that perfectly complements the tuxedo-like contrast of the black exterior and white interior. The iconic C2 body lines, paired with the bright trim and whitewall tires, capture the unmistakable style that made the 1964 Corvette one of the most admired American sports cars of its era. |
