'65 Corvette Coupe, #s 327/300hp/4-sp, Dealer Docs

Much depends on the condition of the chassis. McAllen is in the very southern tip of Texas, but I've seen South Texas cars with rust issues if they were costal cars kept on Padre Island and that's not far from McAllen. I looked at a real rust bucket 1965 Corvette from South Texas and the frame was eventually replaced.

Great documents! Clark Chevrolet is still in business in McAllen. One of the few way back dealers left in this area as most other dealers are Mega Branch Superstores. Not too many Vettes sold in this predominantly agricultural area. I’m sure this was a looker back in the day! Rust is not exempt in this area. We don’t salt roads and I don’t believe we had any recordable snow here in the 60’s but the salty, humid, Gulf Coast air will take a toll on the vintage metal. Even 80 miles inland. Tin worm never sleeps.
