Do you remember this Bud Gates Chevrolet, Indianapolis 65 coupe

[James Gessner (943)]

A good friend just bought a ''barn car''. 1965 Corvette coupe, White with Nassau blue leather interior., Tele steering, AM/FM, tint windows, 396 / 425hp, 4 speed, and real factory side pipes. Now here is the exciting part. It is one of the 41 BIG TANK N-03 optioned cars. It was sold new at BUD GATES CHEVROLET in Indy.

The car was in storage the last 25 years in a barn.

Do any of you Indianapolis Corvette people remember the history of this car? I will hook you up with the owner if you have history to share. Thank you.

Jim, I'd love to hear more about the car this weekend at our Austin meet.

Sounds like you need to do a judging school session there on this one. The pictures are very interesting, as is the story.

Ditto. Did the car come with a radio? The antenna looks like an added item.
