This 1966 Chevrolet Corvette is a red coupe that is powered by a 327ci L79 V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes a PosiTraction differential, 15″ Turbine-style aluminum wheels, gold-stripe BFGoodrich tires, four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, a side-exit exhaust system, and flip-up headlights. The cabin is outfitted with air conditioning, an AM/FM radio, a telescoping steering wheel, and black leather bucket seats. The car was refurbished over two decades ago and acquired by the selling dealer in 2023.
The fiberglass body left the factory finished in Rally Red, and the selling dealer believes it was refinished over 20 years ago. Details include flip-up headlights, chrome bumpers, a driver-side mirror, a side-exit exhaust system, and a retractable antenna.
The 15″ Turbine-style aluminum wheels feature knock-off spinners and are mounted with Bridgestone Silvertown Radial gold-stripe tires. The C2 was the first Corvette to offer fully independent suspension, with upper and lower control arms at the front and a three-link setup with a transverse leaf spring at the rear. The car is equipped with power steering, and braking is handled by four-wheel discs.
The refurbished cabin houses bucket seats upholstered in black leather that are joined by color-coordinated door panels and carpets. Amenities include air conditioning, a heater, an AM/FM radio, an analog clock, and lap belts.
The wood-rimmed steering wheel is mounted on a telescopic column and frames a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and auxiliary gauges for fuel level, amperage, oil pressure, and water temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 58k miles. The seller states the mileage is not accurate, and total mileage is unknown.
The 327ci L79 V8 was factory rated at 350 horsepower and 360 lb-ft of torque. Engine work from 2007 onward is detailed in the service invoices in the gallery.
