This distinctive 1965 Chevrolet Corvette, manufactured in the heart of the American muscle car era, was originally sold as a sleek convertible but was converted into a race car around 1966 following its reported theft and engine removal. Now residing in Melbourne, Florida, this historic vehicle has participated in various SCCA and SVRA events over the decades before being acquired by its current owner in 2006. Powered by a robust 406 cubic inch V8 engine, this Corvette embodies the classic spirit of American racing.
