Vehicle Description
The immortal Corvette Sting Ray marked the second generation of the
Corvette and helped confirm the Corvette line as the first, true
American sports car. 1966 was three years after the Sting Ray was
introduced in 1963 so this car reflects the development work
carried out so that Corvettes could perform and handle with the
best of the European sports cars.
This 1966 Sting Ray convertible is an older professionally done
restoration, receiving National Corvette Restorers Society Top
Flight Awards in 1998 and again in 2007 with a 98.4% Top Flight
score.
This car is all original with matching numbers and correct serial
code numbers throughout. This car is in its rare factory correct
Laguna Blue lacquer paint.
Powered by the 327 cubic inch 300hp small block V-8 engine, this
engine delivers plenty of torque and high-end grunt. The carburetor
is a Holley four barrel. The transmission is the much-preferred
Muncie wide ratio 4-speed gearbox that was a factory option.
The rear suspension is independent with a GM Positraction limited
slip differential.
Disc brakes are featured on all four corners.
Original interior is dark blue vinyl, has dark blue carpeting and
has the eye appealing double cowl dashboard. The new convertible
top is white vinyl. Importantly this car comes with the original
Laguna Blue removable hardtop. The AM/FM radio and electric antenna
work.
With just over 79, 000 miles, this car has been driven, loved and
well cared for. This award winning 1966 Corvette Sting Ray is an
opportunity to purchase a highly collectible and desirable
vehicle.
