The Interior Carpets, Molding, Seat Foam, Window Felt, and some Door Hardware have been replaced. It is very difficult to describe all the Parts that have been either Replaced or Rebuilt. I have many Receipts for the Vette. However, not all of them. I do believe the Transmission and Rear End is Original to the car, along with the Front and Rear Stabilizer Bars. I have the Original Big Block Exhaust Manifolds, Big Block Brackets and Distributor that goes with the Vette. I also have, Two Original Service Manuals, Protection Plan, Owners Guide, and Accessories Books for the 1966 Vette! TheTachometer and Oil Presure Gauges are Original the others have been Rebuilt.

I like the Looks of the Vette but By-No-Means is it a Number Matching Vehicle! IT'S NOT! The Original Color of the Vette was Mosport Green. I changed the color to Victory Red (74 WA926). There is no indication of Mosport Green anywhere on the body. It is original and damaged free and as you can see, it has an aftermarket New 1967 Big Block Hood.

The Paint was professionally done on the Vette, it is Fantastic throughout. It is a driver so there are some blemishes. Please, I recommend that you inspect the Vette or have a professional inspection person inspect it for you! This is "Of-Course" prior to bidding/ownership. All costs related to an Inspection are the Responsibility of the Bidder/Buyer!

The Vette is sold "AS IS" and "Without Warranty" of Any Kind! The Buyer should expect Normal Wear on the vehicle. I have kept this vehicle Meticulous Maintained with most of the records. I have made every effort to Present Information that is Accurate and Under No Circumstances will I be Liable for any Inaccuracies. The 66 Vette, is Always Kept Covered and in an Indoor Garage. I have a Clean California Title.

This 1966 Vette runs Hard, FAST and is Extremely Solid. Approx. 9,000 miles after Resto. You must take into-a-count that it is a 1966 designed. The suspension and brakes are 1966 design; so keep your foot out of it! Yea Right!

Please again, I am not looking for trades just CASH!

I do Email and TX. However, if you have questions, please call because I will be a little slow on returning Emails.
