1965 Chevrolet Corvette

Gateway Classic Cars Houston showroom is proud to present this classic 1965 Chevrolet Corvette. This striking red exterior 1965 Chevrolet Corvette turns heads while carrying forward a storied American legacy. Chevrolet's firstgeneration Corvettes, the C1s, were produced from 1953 through 1962 and established the Corvette as a symbol of postwar innovation, sporty design, and fiberglass bodywork that set the pace for future generations. Though the 1965 model is technically a C2, it stands upon the traditions that the C1s created-bold styling, open-air driving, and engine performance that connected enthusiast dreams with the open road.

Step up to this red Corvette and take in the contrast of the vibrant paint against the black vinyl interior. The cabin is simple and purposeful, with seatbelts for safety, a manual convertible top that lets you control whether you breathe in open skies or enjoy shel-tered cruising. The interior upholstery in vinyl adds durability and classic style, keeping things clean, strong, and fitting for a build that refuses to over-embellish.

Power comes from a 327 cubic inch V8, an engine known for solid performance in its era, paired with an automatic transmission that gives smooth, relaxed shifts and makes highway travel effortless. You can feel the torque roll out in low RPMs, making this Corvette work happily in traffic or enjoying a steady cruise.

This car embraces original simplicity rather than modern luxuries. The radio setup is basic: AM only, supplemented by a cassette tape player, offering a retro way to enjoy your favorite tapes or broadcasts. Other period-correct features include hub caps that carry the style and charm of 1960s design, manually operated top, and classic control layout. Each component reinforces the classic character and driving purity this Corvette offers.

For those seeking a vintage convertible that embodies authentic mid-sixties Chevrolet performance with a lean, no-frills interior, this red-on-black 327 V8 automatic Corvette delivers. It is a car to drive, to show, and to enjoy for its timeless appeal.
