AI Listing Summary
This 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe is a purpose-built big-block SCCA/Trans Am race car with a history of vintage racing. It features a custom short-stroke V8 engine producing 500 horsepower, M22 four-speed transmission, and extensive chassis and safety upgrades for competition.
Condition

The car is a dedicated race car with modifications for competition. While well-maintained for racing and refurbished, it has visible wear and tear consistent with its racing use. It has been campaigned extensively and recently restored to SVRA specifications, indicating it's in excellent mechanical and racing condition but not 'pristine' or 'outstanding' in a street-legal sense. The description mentions chassis updates, a roll cage, racing seat, fire suppression system, and racing wheels/tires, all contributing to its excellent condition as a race car.
