1966 Chevrolet Corvette L72 for sale
Current customer rating: (158 votes ) based onI have owned the car for about 14 years. accumulating about 5K miles in that time. It came from a Corvette specialist dealer in Arizona; California before that.
The rear half of the car (underside) is restored. everything as new and correct. The front half of the car is as I received it. except for a new radiator core. Also. the entire brake system is now replaced/restored; new booster. rotors. restored calipers. parking brake. all S. S. lines. etc.
A previous owner applied the paint. re-chromed bumpers. etc. The color is accurate and well done. A couple paint chips need fixing (see in pictures). Overall the body is excellent. Areas that are often cracked from age on Corvettes. look good on this car. I have looked all around from underneath and have not found any evidence of old accident damage.
I have pictures of the car dating back to the 1980's. including pictures taken during painting which show the body bonding lines all around the car. It is a no hit body.
The frame also looked very good in the back during the refurbishment. For example. the body mounts that are often rusty are very solid on this car.
The interior shows wear but looks good overall. Seat covers excellent. Carpet is in decent condition. but faded in some areas. Convertible top good condition. The California owner told me it was originally a radio delete car. but sorry. the following owner installed a radio. I followed suit with the power antenna and OEM dash control switch. Clock works. but after 14 years I now must tap on the clock once after it sits for weeks.
Runs and shifts beautifully. The engine block is dated 1968 and is a CExxxxxxx (Chev Engingg) warranty replacement block. Runs on pump gas. Tube headers. loud exhaust. Sounds fantastic. Just sitting in this car and hearing it start is a thrill and raises a huge smile.
Added 6/25/2016: I am told now that the NCRS does not deduct points for "CE" engine blocks - CE meaning "counter exchange" - these being warranty exchange engine blocks within the 3yr/36. 00 mi warranty.
Added 7/1/2016: Four new photos added to Corvette photo album below. by request.
