Condition report:
The overall condition of this Corvette is a #3 or nice driver quality. The owner states it has never been in an accident. The paint has a couple of dime-size chips and there is a little bubbling by the fender gills. Overall the paint is very glossy and nice. The chrome, stainless trim, glass, convertible top, hardtop, and interior are all in very good condition. The cast aluminum wheels have some minor pitting on the chrome center caps. The frame is solid with no evidence of significant rust or any repairs. This Corvette definitely has the big block performance you seek. It rides and handles like you would expect from a 1966 Sting Ray convertible.
