For Sale: 1966 Chevrolet Corvette in Morgantown, Pennsylvania for sale in Morgantown, PA
Vehicle Description 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible In 1966, 27,720 Corvettes were built and of them, 17,762 of them were convertibles.
6,100 total cars were colored Nassau Blue and 7,591 of the total cars had 4-speed manual transmissions.
As you can see, Corvettes are some of the most well documented cars in American history and have had an enthusiastic following since 1953.
The 1966 is among the favorites of the C2's, the second generation of the model now in its eighth iteration.
For consignment, a numbers matching 1966 convertible that was driven its first five years then essentially tucked away until it was purchased and went through a 20 year restoration.
Even the frame was restored before reassembly of the pieces.
Some will argue that Nassau Blue is one of the best colors for a Corvette and while we don't have a dog in that fight, we don't disagree.
This car shows an unverified 37,368 miles and comes with a factory hardtop that is still in the consignor's possession.
Exterior Bathed in a Nassau Blue respray, which is the original color, the car is gleaming but not over restored.
The chrome on the bumpers is in great shape having been restored and the brightwork is in matching condition.
The convertible top is impeccable including the plastic window.
The side pipes and their fluted covers are not only epic in design but spotless in execution.
15-inch five spoke chrome wheel covers with faux knock offs occupy each corner.
All the emblems are in place and sparkling.
The blue hue accentuates the lines of the car, from the raised fender hips to the pointed detail on the hood to the vented gills on the side.
As the Tubes once sangShe's a beautyshe's one in a million girl.
.
Interior With its iconic double brow dash, which presents in great condition, nice and clean, is the gauge cluster and center console, all is looking very clean.
It's all correct here, even the vertically mounted AM/FM radio and chromed shifter.
Buckets are Bright Blue and are in nice condition with inner tuck and roll stitched vinyl and smooth outer bolsters.
The blue loop style carpet is essentially flawless with no staining and is protected by period, opaque plastic floor mats that are yellowed from time but intact.
More blue on the door panels which are in fantastic condition with the exception of a small tear on the driver's side armrest.
Drivetrain All numbers matching here with the HT coded 327ci L79 V8 making 350hp.
Topped by a correct single 4-barrel Holley carburetor, and its original and numbers matching Muncie M20 4-speed manual transmission is on the back.
An AN stamped rear axle assembly weighs in at a 3.
55 ratio with Positraction.
The engine is showing traces of its original orange/red block with a chrome air cleaner atop, and original valve covers in nice form.
All buttoned up and looking great! Undercarriage A spectacularly clean underside, the result of a body-off restoration.
The frame is gloss black and the rear shocks and transverse leaf springs painted silver/blue.
This car sports disc brakes on all 4 corners.
Independent coil spring suspension is on the front and an independent suspension is on the rear with tubular shafts and a transverse multi-leaf spring.
Dual exhaust feeds into the side pipes.
Drive-Ability These early 1960's C2 Vettes are just a blast to drive, and it made me feel like an artist driving my handiwork with its sculpted fiberglass body, and snappy interior.
It lit right up, and the test track beckoned.
Performance is the buzzword for this car, and thanks to the 350hp L79 mill it has nearly limitless acceleration, fine rail like handling, and solid braking.
The transmission shifted smoothly.
Non-working items include the left low beam, right taillight and turn signal, and the brake lights.
A great color combo all season driver with the convertible, and hardtop, and original items that include jack, owners manual, and spare wheel.
A classy, sculpted profile sports car made in America and definitely iconic in its reputation and looks for this year.
This Vette in stunning Nassau Blue is definitely worth a second look.
