Movie cars range from fully custom creations to showroom stock with this 1965 Chevrolet Corvette convertible obviously falling into the latter group. As is the case with most classic cars, this one being auctioned off by Corvette Mike Anaheim on  Bring a Trailer has an interesting back story including its use in popular television shows and promotional campaigns. [embedded content] Despite being a 1965 Corvette, this car was actually ordered by an employee of CBS in 1962 for use on the television series Route 66. Sadly, that show was cancelled…

Chevrolet has made a few very rare production cars, like the 1969 ZL1, 1967 L88, and the C3 ZR-1’s. They have also made more than a few experimental cars, but few of them survived the crusher once they did not serve a purpose anymore. One experimental that did survive was the one and only ZR-12! At the 1989 Detroit Auto Show, Dodge revealed the Viper and its V10 engine, and General Motors believed it would be a formidable competitor to the Corvette. In response, the automaker commissioned a chassis study…

The Corvette Convertible production began on August 3, but it looks like the first batch likely was held for quality-control checks before being shipped off to the buying public.

A long list of options makes this ultra-desirable ’63 Corvette a true needle in the haystack. With over 10,000 Sting Ray coupes built in ’63, there are definitely a number of Corvette models that were built in more limited numbers, but the split-window design makes these first-year C2s a must-have for any diehard car collector. This Daytona Blue 1963 Chevrolet Corvette represents an ultra-rare example of a split window as it checked practically every option box available, and it is one out of just 278 equipped with factory air conditioning.
