Great car Webby!
65 convertible, knock off wheels, factory sidepipes, 375 hp 327 ci solid lifter motor, gold line tires. That guy has a special car, thanks for posting it. Only 771 Vettes were fuelies in 65, and only around 1100 had those wheels.
Casey, no 427s in 65, but you could get a 425 hp 396 big block too.

Yes you know your vettes, I had a 425 hp 396 65 vette, It was the first year for a big block and 4 wheel disk brakes.
66 was the first year for the 427 cars. There were several ratings for HP. The 425 hp car was one 4 barrel. However in 67 there was a 435 HP option that was 3 2 barrel carbs. Both were solid lifter cars with 7000 rpm redlins. That is a ton of revs for a big block. For their time they were blindingly fast.
When I sold mine I thought there would never be another car that would beat it. The C6Z06 would totally blow away a 67 435 hp car today. Plus it turns and it stops. At the same time the Bose is playing Led Zepplin and Onstar tells me if I need a oil change and lets me use the phone. The diffrence in tecnology is staggering.......
