1966 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray

.

 

1 of 17,762 built / 327 c.i. 300 hp.

One of the most beautiful cars ever made, this example has the rare teak steering wheel and leather interior. I chose the 327 ”small-block” engine rather than the 427, as I prefer the hood styling more on the more conservative unit. Though I am highly fond of all 63-67 Sting Rays, I opted for a 1966 model as, starting in 1965, the Corvettes were offered with four wheel disc brakes and, unlike most aficionados, I prefer the three side fender intakes on the '65-'66 models as opposed to the five featured on the 1967.
