It's a '65 but not a real Corvette. It is built on a '65 Corvette chassis though. Built by FiberFab, the kit car guys in 1965.
Gorgeous C4 in the background of the first pic.

I don't know why but that kit makes me want to don a mask and cape and take it for a ride. What C4 were you writing about? The purple one?

Wow, I don't care if it's a kit car! Awesome. Do you know anything else about it? I'm surprised it doesn't have overheating problems with a race motor and no fan shroud?

He didn't have any overheating that I saw.

FiberFab was making bodies like this as early as 58 for the C1 chassis.
A little info.

And here's one of their brochures from Noland Adam's site.
