Yes maybe but it could also be Saddle paint with White and Saddle interior which is the combo I'd like to see in photo.
I think it could be nice.

It's the white & saddle that is really rare.

Then I don't really think that the Saddle colour is ugly. It's only a matter of taste. Personnaly I can't stand the red interior. I find it agressive. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder !!!

But I also agree that rarity is not necessarly interesting such as 3 speed manual !

Hi mattyg
I already have several pictures of white or saddle or other colours of '64 with saddle interiors, both coupe or convertible ...
but I was looking for a white AND saddle interior (with any colour of body) which is not a white paint and saddle interior...
Please send any photo if you wish by the way.
Many thanks in anticipation
Best regards
Christian

I tried to find pictures of the car in my stack of photos, but no luck...if anyone is in the Omaha Nebraska area Pat and Sandy Swift with the Cornhusker Corvette Club had a saddle 64 with white and saddle interior and luggage rack ala Route 66. Very nice car with off-road exhaust. Maybe someone in that area has a picture.

I am in the process of restoring a '65 white with vinyl saddle interior, white convert. top, and removable hard top. Love the color combo ... look at how many new cars have a tan interior.

I think it looks ok, not as nice as red or black, but pleasing to the eye.

I found infos about interiors breakdown on http://www.corvetteactioncenter.com/...64/64prod.html
white and saddle is by far the rarest of them all (vynil or leather)
the percentages give roughly 130 in vinyl and some 20 in leather !!!
I still wait to see one especially a coupe which represented only 30% of the production...

Saddle only is much more common and often seen. Moreover it's not a 1964-only and you can find it on other midyears.

If anyone has photos please send !

Many thanks in anticipation
kind regards

How about this one? White/ white+tan coupe. Sioux Falls dealer, around 1980. A/C, no radio, automatic, KO's (originals, with ink stamp date visible on one). I bought the KO's.

Just my very humble opinion...
Jeez and I thought you had class.
