'65 Corvette w/ Factory Drum Brakes
I wasn't aware of this until now, but one could delete the disc brakes on a '65 Corvette and receive a $64 credit...unsurprisingly only a few people did so (I believe the number was 316).
It's ironic that the seller is using the '1 of 316 original drum brake cars' as a selling point for a car that's anything but stock. Link to 1965 Corvette auction

“I’m tellin’ you, those fancy new disc brakes are still experimental and they’re gonna get somebody killed! I’m stickin’ with proven drums!”

Somebody needed to take the airbrush away after the front end was done. WAY too much of that everywhere for me.
The teeny bop fluff under the hood is unsightly too.
