1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible — Numbers Matching L75 327/300HP, 4-Speed, Silver over RedWhy This Car Is SpecialThe 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray sits at a specific and well-regarded point in C2 history. It was the second year of the Sting Ray body — the design that Zora Arkus-Duntov and Bill Mitchell had been working toward since the late 1950s — and Chevrolet used that second year to refine what the 1963 had introduced. The divisive split rear window was gone, replaced by a cleaner single-pane design. The fake hood vents were functional now. The dashboard was revised for better ergonomics. In short, 1964 is widely considered the more polished version of what many collectors regard as the best-looking Corvette ever built.Total 1964 Corvette production came in at 13,925 convertibles. Of those, a meaningful percentage left the factory with base or mid-level 327 engines, but the car presented here carries the L75 — the 327 cubic inch V8 rated at 300 horsepower. That engine sits between the base 250hp unit and the more aggressive fuel-injected and solid-lifter options, making it a strong, street-able combination that rewards daily driving and doesn't demand the level of maintenance that a race-oriented engine requires. Paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, it's the configuration most buyers in 1964 actually wanted.What separates this specific 1964 Corvette Sting Ray from the majority of C2s you'll encounter is the depth of its documentation and the correctness of its drivetrain. The engine numbers match the car. The block is painted the correct Chevrolet engine red. The valve covers are correct red. The alternator is correct. This is not a car that has been assembled from mixed parts — it is documented as a single long-term collection car with a traceable ownership history. That provenance matters enormously when it comes time to insure, show, or resell.The color combination adds another layer of appeal. Silver over red was a factory-correct and visually distinct pairing in 1964. The white convertible top completes the look cleanly. Add the dealer-installed rear luggage rack — a period-correct accessory that relatively few C2s carry today — and you have a car that stands out even in a room full of well-preserved Corvettes.Features List- Numbers matching L75 327ci V8, 300 horsepower- Correct red-painted block and red valve covers- 4-speed manual transmission, numbers matching drivetrain- Knock-off wheels (require lead hammer for removal, as designed)- White convertible top- Silver exterior with red vinyl interior- Dealer-installed rear luggage rack- Spare tire carrier present- Front suspension recently rebuilt- Independent rear suspension (IRS)- Dual exhaust with correct bumper tip exits- Painted undercarriage- All gauges functional — speedometer, tachometer, fuel, temperature, oil, amp- Wood-grain steering wheel with Corvette crossed-flags horn button- AM radio- 4-speed shifter with chrome ball- Center console intact- Corvette script floor mats- Correct ribbed red vinyl door panels with chrome window cranks, chrome door handles, and chrome accent bar- Original seat belts present- Corvette Sting Ray script badge on passenger dash- New Interstate battery- Correct chrome and polished air cleaner- Documented single long-term collection ownership historyMechanicalThe engine in this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray is the numbers-matching L75 327 cubic inch V8, factory rated at 300 horsepower. The L75 used a hydraulic lifter camshaft and a single four-barrel carburetor, which made it the most usable of the 327 options for street driving — strong enough to be entertaining, manageable enough to be reliable. The block carries its correct red paint, the valve covers are correct red, and the chrome and polished air cleaner is the right unit for the application. The correct alternator is in place, and a new Interstate battery has been installed.The front
