the Numbers:  Vin# 194675S116338, Paint 900FF, Trim 415 B leather, Block Casting# 3782870, Block Stamping # FO 409 HL, Body Date I (April) 28 1965, Original water pump # 3859326 (rebuilt not on car but included with car) Original cooling fan, Alternator # 1100696 date 5 C 12, Carburetor # 3849804 List 2818 - 1 Date 5 21, Intake # 3844461, Thermostat Housing # 3827370, Transmission Muncie M 20 ID tag 3857579 - Date code PO 4 21, Trans Main case # 3851325 - tail extension # 3857584 - side cover # 3831707, Rear end - AP (411 gears) - date 4 -21 65, Transistor ignition distributor 1111060 (needs rebuilt but comes with car), transistor ignition distributor 1111157 (currently in car was replaced under warranty)

simply put this corvette is a true survivor and believe by NCRS standards would score well! it has survived the test of time and is in very nice condition for an unrestored car, it starts up easily and drives very well! cars of this quality are hard to find and are special because of its original condition, pre purchase inspections are very welcome and encouraged and this car will bring lots of joy to its new owner and lots of bragging rights of its condition :)
