The Chevrolet Corvette C2, affectionately known as the Sting Ray, burst onto the scene in 1963, forever changing the landscape of American sports cars. With its revolutionary independent rear suspension, a first for Corvette, and a sleek, aerodynamic design penned by Bill Mitchell, the C2 was a dramatic departure from its C1 predecessor. The 1966 model year, in particular, saw refinements that cemented its legend, including subtle exterior tweaks and a diverse range of big-block and small-block V8 options that offered enthusiasts everything from tractable street performance to raw, unbridled power. These mid-year Corvettes, with their distinctive hidden headlights and iconic split-bumper design (in earlier years), remain some of the most sought-after iterations of America's sports car. This stunning 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible epitomizes the C2's enduring appeal, presented in a vibrant Rally Red over a classic black interior. While its original engine has been replaced, a rebuilt 350hp small-block now powers this legend, paired with its factory 4-speed manual transmission, promising an engaging and authentic driving experience. Recent upgrades include newer brakes to complement its factory 4-wheel disc setup, an upgraded factory-style radio, and the addition of a tilt wheel for enhanced comfort. The car also retains its factory power antenna and hub caps, preserving its period-correct aesthetic, and both the soft top and interior are noted to be in great condition. This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented example of one of the most iconic American sports cars ever built.
