Original titles and ORIGINAL Protecto plate history from DANIELS MOTORS in Colorado Springs, CO to Tucson, AZ, to Wisconsin. 3 owner early history.
I saw this car at Bloomington Gold in 2001. Sold new to Dr. Dawson and his wife. Then to John Lisk who was the mechanic at the local gas station and cared for the car for sometime. The car wound up in Florida with Steve Laham. He discovered the car was repainted and in good original condition.
Steve put it up for sale in 7/03. Sold to Corvette collector Charlie Bacon, Running Springs, California in May 2004. Charlie got the FI working better and sold it to Greg in Northridge, California in Oct 2004.
The Interior has new Al Knoch seat covers, seat foam, rebuilt seat frames, and new carpet. The car has the Original KH steel wheels and perfect restored 65 hub caps. The owner also has a set of Wesern Knock offs with Diamond Back Goldlines that go with the sale of the car.
At this same 2008 time the original motor was completly rebuilt with all new GM parts to factory specs, 11 to 1, solid lifter original cam, etc. and harden valve seats for the unleaded gasoline. Expert Corvette restorer Steve LuVisi has cared for this car for 12 years. Doug Prince restored the fuel injection unit and distributor.
A service GM NOS N-11 ''off road'' exhaust system was also installed.with a new correct replacement DeWitt radiator. The car was built in 11/64 but the Rad date code is 7/65. The car also has KONI shocks.
