1966 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe

For Sale is my 1966 Corvette Coupe Resto-mod.   This car is a Factory A/C. Power Window. Power Brakes. Power Steering. Power antenna and Teak Steering wheel with Telescoping steering column.   When I bought this car. I didn't care the it was a number matching car with all of these Great options.   I bought it because it was so clean and had Great Bones.   No Rust. Not indications of ever being hit etc. and I had planned to do an LS/TKO swap to complete the Resto-mod theme.  This car went through a Frame Off restoration and was completed in 2007.  When I bought it a year ago. it had 300 miles on it.   It is a number matching engine. transmission and differential.   Engine. Transmission and Differential were all completely rebuilt to factory spec's.   All of the factory gauges were completely rebuilt including the clock.   Clock second hand moves but the hour and minute hands do not move.   I have not had a chance to check it out yet.   Engine was bored 40 over and  is not all original as it has a Billet Specialties Serpentine System. Modern R-134 AC system with everything just replaced brand new for the R134. (Not a vintage air system). Edelbrock Intake carburetor (new). MSD Pro Billet Distributor with Tach Drive. new cap. nbsp;rotor. new spark plubs and plug wires  and 6AL ignition box. Ceramic Coated Shorty headers.   Powerglide transmission has an external cooler and finned aluminum oil pan. Be Cool Aluminum Radiator with 2 new 12' Electric Fans and custom built fan shroud.   Paint is not perfect but from 5' it looks really good.   has minor scratches and minor blemishes.   If I were to keep it. I would repaint it at some point.

Frame and all suspension have been powder coated and everything was either completely rebuilt or replaced.   Since I have owned this car. I have installed a Ride Tech Stage 2 Suspension complete and it has about 150 miles since being installed.   Factory Power steering was completely rebuilt.   The car handles like it is on rails.   With the coil over suspension. ride height is easily adjustable.   I have also just replaced the front disc brakes with Wilwood 6 piston calipers and 14" drilled and slotted rotors.   The rear brakes are C5 4 piston calipers with drilled and slotted rotors.   I had planned to go with the Wilwood setup for the rear too but just have not had the time.

When I bought the car. it had silver carpet with white leather seats and white headliner and the whole rear cargo area was stuffed full of custom stereo equipment.   I felt that it was not right for the car so I have removed all of the stereo and replaced it with a Retro Sound Radio with Bluetooth and new custom front and  rear speaker enclosures with JL Audio Coaxial Speakers. 8" JL Audio Sub-woofer in the tool well behind the passenger seat and JL Audio Amp in the well behind the drivers seat.   Radio has Blue tooth and I-Pod connections.   I removed the carpeting and installed Boom Mat and 1" insulation and custom black carpeting. black suede headliner and painted all of the trim black.   I had planned to replace the white leather seats with black leather but have not done it yet and was planning to replace the white door panels with black at which time I would paint the door trim black.

All of the lights work and the headlights open and close as they should.

Wheels are Billet Specialties 18"

Fuel tank has been replaced with a stainless steel tank from Rick's Tanks and is set up with electric fuel pump and return line for Fuel Injection
