Condition
From the Richard Cohen Big Tank collection. Very good correct engine bay. Not quite show quality but essentially spotless under there. Very good paint and chrome. Very good fully restored interior. NCRS Top Flight. One of just 41 1965 Corvettes fitted with the 36.5-gallon tank. Essentially like new and lots of good options.
Market commentary
Few Corvettes got the N03 Big Tank option, at $202.30 almost as expensive as the 396/425hp engine. Some were endurance road racers, but probably more were daily drivers crossing gas station-less stretches of middle America. Richard Cohen assembled one of every year the Big Tank was offered from 1963-1967, an obsession that was liquidated in at Mecum's Spring Classic. There were one 210 Big Tanks of which five were offered here and they were recognized with superior prices like this.
