Bucket seats hold occupants firmly when taking corners at speed, complemented by the tactile wooden steering wheel.

A center console houses the shifter in ideal position for rapid gear selection. The door panels, carpets, and other interior elements maintain the authentic Corvette environment. It isn't every day that we see a 1965 Corvette L78, and for good reason – GM only built a grand total of 2,157 of them in this particular model year. That rareness stems from the car's power-plant, of course, which is the automaker's Mark IV 396 cubic-inch big block V8 that produces 425 horsepower, yet was replaced for the 1966 model year with the larger 427. Regardless, that makes it a novelty in the world of the C2, as well as a bit more collectible.
