BTW, this car looks like crapola! Wonder if it is a 65 or 66-Nobody knows! You lists a car for that much with zero description and documentation. Go figure, ebay.


Hey, Cobrastang--tell us how you really feel

I agree, if I read your reply correctly, Slippery Terry's ego sure must have been deflated at what his "Last Stingray" brought, especially after all the hype leading up to the B-J auction.

And, whatever this ebay-listing guy is smoking...I sure wish he'd share.

OK, I got some info.

By the trim tag it's a 65. Here's the numbers he sent to me.

194675S114091
021524

So the interior is correct with the ***** etc, but the outside seems to have already had some previous work done to make it look like a 66. Maybe been in more than one little fender bender in it's life.

Go figure

Watch for me on Spped Channel for the next three years (or see the behind the scenes footage on my soon to be for sale documented and much bally-hooed series).

I emailed the seller and asked if it had a 396, 427 or 454 engine in it and his answer was:

It has a F329812 motor installed it it. Safe to assume he is looking at the pad that is located in the center of the block which makes this a 454 or my guess a boat block.

Well, alrighty now....... it's starting to make sense.....
It's a 65 yellow inboard motor corvette boat.... those are flotation devices, not tires.

Must have hit the dock pretty hard to do that kind of damage to the front end

Yup, that's another one of the ultra-rare Fonawanda big-blocks.
