1966 Chevrolet Corvette Silver Convertible LS3 6.2L V8 5 Speed Manual
Description
Ground Up Built Corvette Restomod Conv. 6.2L LS3 V8 5-speed A/C Leather ///
The beneficiary of a detailed, ground-up restoration, this classy cruiser was entirely disassembled and carefully stripped of its dull, original pigment. Once that prep was complete, an incredibly straight fuselage was tweaked to better-than-factory alignment and blanketed in clean GM two-stage. That silver pigment was lovingly detailed with a sinister Stinger Stripe. And today, This Chevy rolls with enough style to challenge pretty much anything at the show! Gaze upon this Chevy's body-matched engine bay and you'll find 6.2 liters of small block fury! Officially known as the Chevrolet Performance LS3, that factory-engineered crate engine twists respectable 10.7 to 1 compression into 430 horsepower and 425 lb./ft. of torque. Behind that mill, a proven Tremec 5-speed, engaged by an easy hydraulic clutch, spins power to a requisite posi-traction differential that's packed with big, 3.73 gears. Those gears push a tough tubular chassis that's lashed to a massaged fourth-generation Corvette suspension. Turns come courtesy of power rack-and-pinion steering. Stopping is a cinch thanks to red C4 calipers and 13-inch drilled and slotted rotors. And torque melts the pavement through chromed, ZR1-style wheels, which spin 275/35ZR18 Hankook Ventus. Open the car's light doors and you'll find a tastefully customized interior that's stylish and very livable. There's a duo of leather buckets that feature comfy headrests. In front of those thrones, a stylish dual-cowl dash hangs factory telemetry over hardware for Vintage Air conditioning. And the driver spins an attractive, wood-look steering wheel around a tilting Flaming River column. Call, click or visit for your chance to own a standout Sting Ray that'll keep people gawking for years to come!
