STORY/PANORAMA
The Chevrolet Corvette C2 Coupé, introduced in the early 1960s, is characterized by its sporty bodywork and its technical setup with a front engine and rear-wheel drive. Known as the “Sting Ray,” the 1964 example belongs to the first evolution of the C2 series. Equipped with V8 powertrains, the model on auction features the rare manual transmission and was born in the rare Tuxedo Black color. Subject to a professional restoration in the past, it is in beautiful condition with the technical inspection just passed without defects.
EXTERIOR
The paintwork has been restored by the previous owner in the factory original Tuxedo Black and presents as solid and in excellent overall condition. External details are complete and correct for the version, including the pop-up headlights which open and close properly and all seals are in place. A careful, non-invasive polishing treatment, including professional detailing, has recently been performed, enhancing the shine of the paint.
The underbody is generally solid, original and well preserved like the chassis, and there are no signs of accidents.
INTERIOR
The interior is in excellent overall condition, well usable and complete in red. The seats are in great condition, as are the door panels. The dashboard is complete and original, including the analog instruments. A sanitization has just been performed, including the carpet.
MECHANICS
Mechanically the car has the V8 engine with manual transmission, recently restarted after a long period of inactivity in a private collection. The transmission works, as does the clutch; the gears function correctly and the car has just passed a valid technical inspection until May 2028 with no defects found, it is road-legal and drivable, however a routine check is always suggested due to the little use.

Disclaimer
Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
