AI Listing Summary
This 1966 Chevrolet Corvette is a 427/425hp convertible, a fine example of the potent mid-year Corvette, completed at GM's St. Louis based Corvette plant on November 8th, 1965, and was later sold to its first owner by Z Frank Chevrolet out of Chicago, Illinois. It features a sleek Black on Black livery and desirable 4-speed manual transmission, making it a great choice for vintage rallies and tours.
Originally Silver over silver vinyl interior, it has been made into a roadster body style in wonderfully presented livery in Black over Black interior, with an older restoration still showing quite nicely, and is loaded with options, including side mount exhaust, soft ray tinted windshield, posi rear end, and aluminum knock-off wheels.
