This 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible sports the iconic first-generation color scheme: Ermine White exterior, red interior, and black folding roof. It's a numbers-matching beauty with over $70,000 in restoration receipts, showcasing meticulous attention to detail. The Corvette's sleek silhouette is accentuated by its pristine paint job, interrupted only by the gleam of chrome bumpers and the classic spinner wheel covers. Riding on period-correct 7.75-15 Goodyear Power Cushion repop tires, this C2 convertible rolls with authentic '60s style.
Inside, the red vinyl interior presents a vibrant contrast to the white exterior. The cockpit features bucket seats, a floor-mounted shifter, and a center console that epitomizes the sports car ethos of the era. A factory AM/FM Delco radio and a perfectly functioning clock maintain the period-correct ambiance. The padded dash houses stock gauges, providing all the essential information at a glance. Seatbelts are present for safety, though they're not the original units.
Under the hood, the numbers-matching 327 CI V8 engine, rebuilt in December 2023, stands ready to deliver classic Corvette performance. It's paired with a Muncie 4-speed manual transmission, allowing for full control of the powerband. The engine bay showcases a stock-style presentation with a few select upgrades: an HEI ignition system for improved reliability and a Holley four-barrel carburetor for optimized fuel delivery. Chrome touches on the air cleaner and finned aluminum valve covers with Corvette script add a dash of flair.
