The Second-Generation Chevrolet Corvette was sold between 1963-1967
and considered by many as the high watermark for the historic
brand. 1966 was a significant year in terms of powerplant offerings
for the Corvette. The 427 cubic-inch V8 replaced the venerable 396
as the showcased big-block option. While peak horsepower ratings
were about the same, the 427 packed 11% more low-end torque. The
frontal appearance was mildly altered with an egg crate grille
insert to replace the pervious horizontal bars. In addition,
Corvettes received an emblem on the corner of the hood and head
rests became an option for the first time. This gorgeous Nassau
Blue / Dark Blue 1966 Corvette Coupe is fully restored beauty with
numbers matching engine and a new transmission. The owner states
1,000 miles since the 427 cid 390 hp V8 enjoyed a complete rebuild
and was mated to a new Tremec 5-speed manual transmission.
Additional features include knock-off wheels, leather interior,
ice-cold aftermarket AC and Wonderbar audio system. If you are
