1964 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible For Sale
This 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is a second-year example of the C2 Sting Ray, presented in red over a red interior with a white soft top. The 1963-1967 mid-year cars remain the most sought-after generation of Corvette, and 1964 brought meaningful refinement to the platform: revised suspension tuning, added sound insulation, and cleaner styling details over the debut year, all while keeping the shape that made the Sting Ray an icon.
Power comes from a 327ci V8 paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, sending power through a 3.36 rear gear. That gearing is a well-balanced choice for a mid-year driver, lively enough around town while keeping revs reasonable at cruising speed. The odometer shows 79,000 miles. Braking is handled by drum brakes at all four corners, correct for the year 1964 was the final model year before Chevrolet made four-wheel disc brakes standard on the Corvette, which makes an all-drum car like this one a proper representation of the early mid-year configuration. Underneath sits the independent rear suspension that debuted with the C2, the setup that transformed the Corvette from boulevard cruiser into a genuine sports car.
The interior is in excellent condition, with the seats, carpet, and door cards all presenting well. The red-on-red combination with the white top is a classic Corvette pairing, and dropping the top is exactly how these cars were meant to be enjoyed 1964 was a year when convertibles outsold coupes by a wide margin, and the roadster remains the definitive way to experience a mid-year.
Between the 327/4-speed drivetrain, the driver-friendly 3.36 gearing, and a strong interior, this is a Sting Ray set up to be driven and enjoyed rather than parked under a cover.
