It reminds me of the blue/white 1965 365 Horse that Mecum has for sale with 14,000 miles. That one has white leather seats and original knock-off wheels. A sweet car.

Of the seven C2 Corvette I had in the mid 70s only one had a working odometer because it had 38,000 miles on it. Me and my first C2 Corvette fall of 1973 with a broken odometer.

MJV1953,

Looks like your Split Window is wearing the 68 turbine wheel covers.

Those are PO2's for '69 and later. 1968 PO1's had a flat center cap.

Tim, you are correct. They came off my friends 1969 Corvette roadster as he like the look of rally rims better.

----$47,600 as of today with 3 days left. Anywhere under $50,000 would be a steal as far as I'm concerned. If I had any room at all I'd be bidding......Bill S

$50,100 now.
I've got room !! I'll even pick it up and free storage for 2 years, long as I get to "exercise" it now and then on bright summer days...

Bid to $53,500 the last time around, but didn't meet reserve.

This one has been relisted in the link below, with a $62,500 buy-it-now price.

I spoke to the owner. He gave what I thought was a really accurate description of the car (I had a customer in mind for it).

Until I saw the additional pics........................

Typical Midwest car. I'd have a hard time suggesting the 53.5k to anyone

Would you like to elaborate more on why you didnt suggest this car to your customer?
Its running again on ebay and for a survivor 365 convert looks pretty nice. What other pictures did you see that turned you off?
