Vehicle Description
Following the October 1962 launch of the stunning new Corvette
Sting Ray for 1963, Zora Arkus-Duntov and his engineers' relentless
development work soon unleashed a virtually endless series of
high-performance options and updates that brought the Corvette to
international prominence. For 1966, the Corvettes big-block engine
displacement grew to 427 cubic inches with a factory-rated 425 HP
on tap. Credentials that would make any Corvette an overnight
legend.
One of 3,799 examples produced in 1966 with Code 988 Malino Maroon
paint (one year only). This recently restored Chevrolet Corvette
convertible features the mighty 427/425 HP Turbo-Jet V-8 engine.
Equipped with an aluminum intake manifold and 4-barrel carburetor,
the engines power is sent to the pavement via an upgraded 5-speed
Tremec manual transmission. The 5-speed transmission is a
substantial drivability upgrade and allows for lower highway
cruising RPMS. Your dream of reaching for a 5th gear in a mid-year
Corvette is a reality!
Complementing the striking Malino Maroon finish are a black
convertible top and black interior. Further equipped with a
matching hardtop, Power steering, power brake, seat belts, heater,
and an AM/FM radio. Riding on excellent Goldline Radial tires! This
Corvette is running great and ready for a new owner! CALL TODAY
