1965 Chevrolet Corvette Manta Ray

Did you ever think a fish could be a car? Probably not but the Corvette changed that with the quirky 1965 Manta Ray. The performance of the Manta Ray was the strong suit of the car. The 427 cubic-inch, all-aluminum V-8 was one of the best engines that GM ever built. The sleek lines of the Manta Ray are part of the reason that the car got its name (via Motor 1).

The main difference with the Manta Ray was the exterior of it, it had a split grill and a lowered stance. When it came to choosing a special edition Corvette, you couldn’t go wrong with this fish-themed one. This was a unique and innovative version of the Corvette.
