This Corvette was built in October 1964 and sold by Cone Chevrolet, Anaheim, CA on December 4, 1964. The car was finished from the factory in Goldwood Yellow, trimmed with standard black vinyl interior, and outfitted with the 350 hp 327 V8 and 4-speed manual transmission. The car remained with the first owner in Southern California and was sold to the second owner in 1974 who kept it for 35 years before selling it to the current family owners in 2009. Currently indicating just over 95,000 miles, these miles are reportedly original to the car, consistent with two prior owners and original drivetrain. In 2011 the restoration began a repaint performed in the original Goldwood yellow finish with care given to not repaint the original door inner underside jambs leaving the original yellow paint, weatherstrip, and factory glue to confirm originality. Continuing into 2012, with 87,380 miles indicated, the restoration continued under the direction of Scott Jones, Campbell, CA. The restoration included the purchase of numerous correct parts including new headlight motors, a new 492 date coded Holley 2818 carburetor, date coded 64J 37 amp alternator, new black leather seat covers, new black carpet and insulation, an NOS center console, gauge cluster rebuild, new heater box, new wire harness (including power windows), new radio harness, and the complete restoration of the interior including rechroming the seat hinges, recovering arm rest, new seatbelt webbing and rebuild for buckles, and refinishing interior items. During the restoration, wind lace, gaskets, weatherstripping, rubber grommets, window stops, and other soft items were replaced, the wiper motor was rebuilt, new halogen lights installed, storage compartment board replaced, interior and engine finishes painted, and the engine and transmission removed for rebuilding. While the engine and transmission were out of the car, the engine compartment was refinished, the suspension also refinished, and a power steering rack installed. The engine was rebuilt beginning with hot tanking all parts, machine work, new exhaust seats and valve guides, valve job, guides cut for PC seals, heads surfaced, new valve springs, and new stainless intake and exhaust valves. The block was bored and honed .030 over with 11:1 compression and specs, new cam bearings, crank grind 10/10, comp cam for 350hp, new rod bolts and resized rods, and the rotating assembly balanced. Other engine upgrades included a Melling oil pump, ARP oil pump drive, Cloyes timing chain, Roller tip rockers, and ARP flywheel and clutch bolts. The transmission was also rebuilt including boiling, blasting and surfacing the flywheel, a new Centerforce clutch, pressure plate, new harmonic balancer and throw out hearing, and shift linkage adjustment when the transmission was reinstalled. Numerous other details including zinc plated hardware, powder coating for several components, new fuel pump, rebuilt starter, new water pump, new fasteners, hoses, clamps, and other specific components and hardware to complete the restoration to a very high level. With the restoration completed in 2012, the car returned to Scott Jones annually for fluid changes, various service items, nut and bolt check and torquing, and other items as needed. By 2018 the owner had driven the car 92,098 miles. In 2020 with 93,240 miles recorded, a set of Uniroyal DB Touring AS 215/70 15 redline tires were installed, and a dual plane high speed balance and four-wheel alignment performed. Upgrades to the car during restoration include changing the rear end gearing to 3:55 positraction, adding power steering, knock off wheels, power windows, leather interior, Bilstein shocks all around, rear leaf spring upgrade, and a power radio antenna.
