When the '63 model was introduced it was a completely new concept for Corvette and over the years featured many items meant to make the car go (fuel injected small block multi-carb'd big block for example) handle (4-wheel independent suspension) and stop (4-wheel disc brakes) like a world class sports car! But up until the time of the mid-years being introduced there was very little in the way of making the car more user friendly and comfortable enough to want to spend long amounts of time in. That all changed when for the first time in a Corvette you could order power steering power brakes telescoping steering wheel and am/fm radio to make your trip that much more of a blast! And speaking of blast! We can't forget one of the most important additions to the Corvette's options list! Factory air conditioning!! Yes for the first time with the A-C on full and the tunes on "11" you could cruise the highways and by-ways of America in total comfort as well as style! But old habits die hard and the novelty of having a-c in your Corvette stayed just that in the '63-'67's. Thus in hindsight it was and is a rare but very desirable option to have . . .

Which leads us to this beautiful and rare '66. Not only does it have all of the aforementioned options it's also a big block 427/390hp to boot!! It features a matching #'s 427 engine with rare factory A-C p/w Teak/telescoping steering column am/fm radio and more. The car was restored over a period of a few years having been completed in '07 by an N.C.R.S. Judge. The drive train is #'s matching; engine rebuild was done in Arizona & trans & rear end rebuild in Sacramento. The car is very correct and is an original factory A-C car. It was judged N.C.R.S. Top Flight in May of '07.
