The paint is very shiny, the interior shows little wear, the soft top still looks great, and it runs just like a 19k mile Corvette should, excellent! Options include the #\u2019s matching LS5 engine, mated to an M21 close ratio 4-speed manual transmission, am\/fm radio, power brakes, power steering, power windows and luggage rack.

Where to begin? Corvette Mike sold the car to its previous owner (a close friend of his) over 30 years ago. And it has remained in Southern CA. ever since. During his ownership, the car was frame-up restored and it has been beautifully maintained over the decades. It still looks fantastic, and it runs and drives just as good as it looks! But what makes this \u201965 truly special is the amazing documentation! Not only does it have extensive restoration photos and receipts, but it also has documentation back to new! Including the Protect-O-Plate with service receipts all the way back to \u201965!
