Vehicle Description
This is a numbers-matching 1966 Chevrolet Corvette convertible
coming off of long-term ownership. And it has all the features you
really want, like a terrific color combo, both tops, and a stick
shift. It makes for the kind of classic that has an all-around
appeal.
This one has been in the hands of the same owner for over 35 years.
Long-term care is the kind of thing you want when searching for a
car with good-looking body lines. And that's especially important
on a C2 Corvette. After all, you have that well-defined crease that
encircles the body and even includes the headlights when closed.
This is a factory Ermine White car, and when you're a true Corvette
fan, you love this color because it was the first color they ever
offered. This respray has a very driver-quality appearance, and so
you may decide to update it. But what excites us about this car is
that the fundamentals are all there. The chrome bumpers are
clean/complete and the details are present, right down to the
factory wheel covers. So it's an icon presented as a true
classic.
While you'll love both roof options, we know your real favorite one
will be no roof at all. After all, nothing beats an open-top
classic, and this one does it with a timeless full black style.
This is believed to be a highly original presentation, and that
will always excite Corvette fans. There's a good look on the bucket
seats, a smooth dash, and just the right hint of patina on the door
trim. So you have a nice-looking vintage package where there are
good details, like the iconic clock. And of course, as a true
Corvette, this car truly speaks to your enthusiast heart. That
means a grippy wood-rimmed steering wheel, full gauges with large
speedo & tach, and a bright shifter calling out for your right
hand.
The engine bay looks as correct as the rest of the car. That means
a bold block, bright distributor shield, and Corvette script valve
covers. Plus, you have the numbers-matching 327 cubic-inch V8 with
a four-barrel carburetor on top. You can tell it has been given the
right engine maintenance with newer items like newer wires, hoses,
and alternator. The V8 fires up readily, and you have full control
of it thanks to the four-speed manual transmission (also believed
to be original to the car.) Chevrolet created a world-class sports
car with the C2 Corvette, and this still holds true today with
features like a fully independent suspension and four-wheel disc
brakes.
This Sting Ray shows the good care of long-term ownership. So when
you're looking for classic distinction, you know you don't want to
miss this Corvette. Call now!
