The second-generation Corvette, known as the C2 or "Sting Ray," burst onto the scene in 1963, forever changing the landscape of American sports cars. Designed by Larry Shinoda under the watchful eye of Bill Mitchell, its iconic split rear window (for 1963 only) and dramatic, sculpted lines were a radical departure from its C1 predecessor. The C2 brought independent rear suspension, a first for Corvette, vastly improving handling and ride quality. By 1966, the Sting Ray had cemented its reputation as a formidable performer, offering a range of powerful small-block and big-block V8s that made it a force on the street and track, famously campaigning in SCCA and FIA events. This 1966 Chevrolet Corvette convertible exemplifies the quintessential American sports car experience. Under the hood lies the venerable 327 cubic inch V8, factory-rated at 300 horsepower, paired with a rewarding manual transmission that puts the driver in direct command. Showing a remarkably low 14,835 miles, this Sting Ray presents as a cherished example, ready for its next chapter. For the enthusiast seeking a classic Corvette with undeniable pedigree, this C2 convertible represents a thrilling opportunity.
