1965 Chevrolet Black Corvette Convertible

History

America's only true sports car, the Corvette, got subtle refinements in the body in 1965 that continued to make it the car many owners had to have.

We have a triple-black 1965 Corvette Convertible here at Adventure Classics that has a 327 cubic inch small block Chevrolet engine in it, sidepipes, with a 4-speed manual transmission, black paint over a black interior, and a black convertible top.
