1964 Chevrolet Corvette

This vehicle doesn't have a VIN tag.

The exterior was inspected for cosmetic issues and functionality, and the vehicle has been completely rebuilt and restored. The body and paint are in good condition with no visible damage, and it is equipped with a stinger hood and 427 emblem. The window trim and door seals are in good condition, and the glass shows no visible damage. Both headlights are clear and free of noticeable cracks or damage; however, one rear reverse lamp is out. The panel gaps and shut lines appear consistent and within the normal range.

During the interior inspection, the vehicle features a new custom interior, with the dash and gauges, sound system, buttons, and switches all in working order. However, the speedometer and odometer are not functioning correctly. There is light wear on the seats, and the floor mats show some wear. The windows are operating properly, and the doors open and close without issue. There were no signs of smoke or unusual odors.

The engine bay and undercarriage components were inspected for any signs of leakage, deterioration, and fluid conditions. All accessible fluids were at their proper levels and showed a healthy color. The battery is low. Additionally, there were no visible signs of leaks or seepage underneath.

The engine runs well, featuring direct ignition, fuel injection, and a performance cam. The clutch is smooth and firm, and the transmission shifts effortlessly. However, the battery is low on charge, and the engine is running a little rich, likely due to sitting idle. Further diagnosis is needed. The steering, suspension, and brakes are all new, remaining tight and responsive. Additionally, a scan of the ECU revealed the following codes: P0650 (Malfunction Indicator Lamp Control Circuit Malfunction) and P0113 (Intake Air Temperature Circuit High Input). Further diagnosis is needed.

The tires were inspected for tread depth and any unusual wear patterns. All four tires are of the same brand and have sufficient remaining tread depth.

Please refer to the detail section and photos for additional information.
