1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible: A California Classic, Restored
and Ready
This remarkable 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible embodies the
spirit of mid-century Corvette enthusiasm and excitement. Sold new
at the iconic Harry Mann Chevrolet in Los Angeles, famously known
as "America's Largest Corvette Dealer," for many enthusiast and
collectors, this car reflects the pinnacle of Corvette design and
performance.
Finished in its original Mosport Green with a Black Convertible Top
and Black Leather Interior, this Corvette has been lovingly
preserved and tastefully restored. Nearly a decade ago, the
"frame-on" restoration was completed, maintaining its originality
while ensuring it remained ready for cruising and car shows alike.
Apparently, the California life with casual and respectful use,
dictated the restoration process simply required a strip and
repaint, an interior refresh, and a mechanical overhaul. Current
mileage on the odometer: 36,142.
Notable Features and Specifications:
• 327 CID V8 Engine (original numbers-matching) producing 350
horsepower.
• Side Exhaust, delivering a signature Corvette sound.
• Refinished Teakwood Steering Wheel, blending craftsmanship and
classic style.
• Aluminum Knock-Off Wheels (Reproduction) paired with Gold Line BF
Goodrich Radials, combining vintage aesthetics with modern
reliability.
• AM/FM Radio, Tinted Glass, and conveniences like Power Steering
and Power Brakes for a comfortable driving experience.
Our seller added this one to his beautiful collection in 2018. With
a lifetime of collecting a very interesting variety of automobiles
behind him, at the age of 90 with changing mobility concerns, he
has decided to let this one go to a new home. A friend of his was
the prior owner, and the "frame on" restoration was completed as
needed approximately ten years ago.
With its elegant factory-original color combination, period-correct
features, and a legacy of careful ownership, this 1966 Corvette
Convertible is ready to impress on the open road or the car show
events of your choice. Don't miss the opportunity to own a true
California-born icon.
