This 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray is a “Numbers Matching” classic, meaning the engine in the car is the original unit that was installed at the factory. The last six digits of the VIN, 102565, are stamped on the engine pad, as shown in the photos, proving its authenticity.

The mid-year C2 Corvettes are considered the most collectible and desirable Corvette generation, and their value continues to rise. This Corvette is a clean, well-maintained example that’s ready to be driven and enjoyed. It’s priced to sell and presents an excellent opportunity to own a piece of Corvette history at an unbeatable value. As the market for C2 Corvettes is hot, this is a great chance for an investment that could increase in value over time.

This Corvette is not a dealer auction vehicle. We hand-pick each car after careful inspection, and this car comes from an owner who ensured it received the same attention to care and detail that it will continue to receive in your ownership. We invite you to inspect the car in person or have it inspected. Please take your time to scrutinize all of the photos, videos, and details provided, so you can have full confidence in your purchase.

Exterior:

The Red exterior of this Corvette is in great driver condition. The paint has a terrific gloss, a deep shine, and a smooth finish. Both doors open and close easily. The knock-off wheels are original, with a brilliant finish and no curb rash. These are true “knock-off” wheels with a real spinner (not fake covers and lug nuts), making them a standout feature. The white wall tires are correctly sized 205/75R15 and have almost new tread.

The soft top is in excellent condition, with no yellowing or fogging on the rear window. While the car is in fantastic shape overall, there are minor touch-ups, chips, and light crazing around the vehicle, but nothing significant. These imperfections are too small to show up in the photos and are hardly noticeable from five to ten feet away.

The underside of the car is very clean, with photos showing the frame, rockers, and other areas prone to rust—demonstrating how well-maintained this car has been.

Interior:

The red interior of this Corvette is in fantastic condition, with seats that have no split seams, rips, or excessive wear. The driver’s seat bolster is not worn, which is a common issue in older Corvettes. The gauges are crisp and clean, and the lenses are clear. The carpet is in great shape with no stains, holes, or rips, including the rear carpet, which is often neglected.

The dash and console look excellent with no cracks or sun fading, and the door panels are also in great condition, with no typical wear where the driver’s elbow rests. The door pulls are solid and intact. The original radio works well and picks up clear reception. Importantly, the dash has never been cut or modified for aftermarket installations. This Corvette has never been smoked in, so there’s no cigarette odor or burn marks.

The condition of the interior is a huge testament to the meticulous care this car has received throughout its life, especially considering the age of these cars.

Mechanical:

This 1964 Corvette Sting Ray is in great mechanical condition. The car starts up immediately, runs well, and idles smoothly. It performs wonderfully on the road and at highway speeds. In the video below, you’ll see the car accelerating on the highway up to about 70 mph, shifting smoothly through all the gears, braking to a stoplight, and navigating curves with ease.

Key mechanical highlights:

• Transmission: Shifts smoothly through the power band with no issues.
• Brakes: Responsive and do not pull to one side, which is often a concern with early C2 Corvettes.
• Engine Cooling: The car runs cool and does not overheat.
• Headlights: The headlights work and go up and down properly, which is a common issue with mid-year Corvettes. The complete operation of the headlights can be viewed in the video.

Other functional features:

• Exterior lights, dash lights, indicators, horn, wipers, and blower for the heater are all working properly.
• Gauges are in working order, except for the clock (a common issue with these vehicles).
• The car is a bit cold-blooded due to the carburetor, which is typical of older cars, but it runs great once warmed up.
• While there may be occasional rattles and clunks (which is not uncommon for older cars), this Corvette is still a joy to drive, especially with the top down on a beautiful day.

Overall Condition:

This 1964 Corvette Sting Ray Convertible is an excellent example of a Numbers Matching mid-year Corvette in great overall condition. It has been well cared for throughout its life and is ready for a new owner to enjoy. With the market on the rise for C2 Corvettes, this car represents a solid investment for any collector or enthusiast.
