Because Details Matter
This supplement ensures you’re not relying on outdated or incomplete instructions when servicing a 1965 Corvette. It fills in the model-year gaps and ensures every mechanical procedure aligns with factory updates—vital for show cars, survivors, and full restorations alike.
Under the Straw Hat – Restorer’s Insight
Chevrolet never reprinted a full manual for 1964 or 1965. Instead, they issued targeted supplements like this one—meant to be paired with the original 1963 Shop Manual. And here’s the nuance: the 1964 supplement contains unique procedures not repeated in either the 1963 base manual or the 1965 update. To properly service any mid-year C2, owning all three manuals is the only way to guarantee full factory coverage.
