1966 Chevrolet Corvette

1966 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible â?" 327/350hp, 4-Wheel Disc Brakes, Factory A/C, Sunfire Yellow Why This Car Is Special The 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray is widely regarded as the high point of the C2 generation, which ran from 1963 through 1967. By 1966, Chevrolet had refined the Sting Ray into a car that balanced performance, comfort, and style better than any previous Corvette. The split rear window of 1963 was gone. The body lines were cleaner and more resolved. And the engine lineup had grown to include some of the most capable small- and big-block V8s Chevrolet ever offered in a production car. Chevrolet built 27,720 Corvettes for the 1966 model year, split between coupe and convertible body styles. Of those, 17,762 were convertibles â?" making the open-top version the more popular choice by a significant margin.
