Overview

This 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible L79 offers open-top nostalgia with high-grade equipment. Beneath its added stinger hood and center stripe, top 327ci/350hp small block motivation pairs with 4-speed manual shifting. Dual side-pipe exhaust, disc brakes, and 5-spoke mag wheels wrapped in white-letter BF Goodrich T/A rubber assemble for period-correct presentation. Originally a Canadian market example, this Corvette arrives U.S.-titled with long-term collector ownership reported by the selling dealer. 
.
White cloth soft top up or down, this car’s instantly recognizable Green contours meet Black vinyl cabin upholstery and carpets for mid-century sportscar time travel. A fan favorite wood-rimmed steering wheel, reverse-lockout gearshift, and updated AM/FM/Cassette stereo fill out cockpit extras alongside well-preserved factory instrumentation and center-stack analog clock. Out back, a trunk-lid fuel filler and quad taillights round out model-specific hallmarks. Repainted under previous ownership, this Corvette flaunts engine/chassis matching numbers and is sold with a Seller’s Disclosure plus owner’s literature. 
.
Chevrolet’s Corvette marked its second generation (C2) for model year 1963, available in both coupe and convertible body styles. Top of the food chain power and impressive standard equipment made the composite-bodied sportscar a world-class standout through and through. Stingray styling across the lineup counted pop-up headlights and a twin cowl dashboard while streamlined clamshell folding top storage epitomized the car’s best-selling format and timeless design.
