Jerry Heasley 3/11/2018 05-1965-corvette-convertible-rare-finds-brock.jpg In 1983, when he was 10 years old, Rusty Brock was intrigued with an old color slide he saw of his father’s 1965 Corvette his father bought brand new. “Oh, I used to own that car back in the day,” George told his son. The intrigue turned into a mystery to solve when they dug up old paperwork on the Corvette, which included the VIN. George had a policeman friend...
Jerry Heasley 6/5/2018 The sense of awe that accompanies discovering an old Corvette stored or lost for many years can be intoxicating. Kris Smith wasn’t looking for an old Corvette when his son Justin came home from college with a story that a buddy told him about a 1965 coupe parked since 1973. Kris said the Corvette was 7-8 miles from their home in rural Indiana, with amazement in his voice. He had to...

Kurt Ernst on Jan 24th, 2018 As 1965 Corvettes go, the Le Mans Blue coupe that crossed Barrett-Jackson’s Scottsdale stage as lot 1413 isn’t particularly quick, and it certainly won’t post impressive handling numbers.
