1965 Chevrolet Corvette

• The paint is a custom flame job — yellow and orange flames over red fading to a pale nose — a love-it-or-hate-it finish, and repainting to stock would be a full paint budget.
• The body looks straight in the side views, with side exhausts fitted — no major dent is visible here.
• The black soft top is now shown up and it is torn, frayed and split at the rear, with a cloudy rear window — budget for a top replacement.
• The interior uses modern high-back sport seats, not original trim — value it as a modified car, and original-seat money is not in these photos.
• The dash, gauges, door card and console in the interior views look complete and tidy — no obvious missing trim is shown.
• Polished five-spoke wheels and tires look clean in close-up — no immediate wheel spend is shown.
• The engine bay is now shown — an LS swap with a modern intake and coil packs that looks fully installed and tidy from above — no obvious unfinished-swap cost is visible here.
• Engine internals and how the swap was wired and cooled in detail can't be judged from what's shown.
• The underside is not shown in any photo — frame and birdcage condition can't be judged from what's shown and are must-verify items on a C2.

Money: at $46,000 this is a modified, flame-painted LS-swap car — the bay now looks complete, but the torn soft top is a clear replacement budget, the custom paint will narrow resale, and the underside is still a must-verify item before paying.
