Offered for sale is a highly desirable 1966 Corvette Coupe equipped with the L72 427/425 HP engine, finished in rare and striking Mosport Green.

History & Restoration

This Corvette was originally ordered with the above configuration, later saw period racing use, and was eventually rediscovered as a barn find.

The current owner, a long-time Corvette enthusiast, completed a comprehensive, body-off (rotisserie) restoration over approximately six years, with strong emphasis on NCRS correctness, using GM assembly manual.

• Matching-numbers engine and transmission fully rebuilt (over $35,000 invested)
• Engine bay restored to correct factory specifications
• Extensive use of NOS and correct reproduction components
• Fully restored chassis, suspension, and braking systems
• All major systems functional, including lights, headlamp doors, and power antenna

Interior & Condition

• Original seats and upholstery in excellent condition
• New carpet and headliner
• Restored door panels and trim
• Gauges functional (odometer reset during restoration; minimal miles since completion)
• New weatherstripping and window channels
• Includes original jack

Overall

This is a high-quality, correctly restored L72 Coupe suitable for serious collectors, NCRS judging, or investment-grade ownership.  All drivetrain numbers and dates are correct productions numbers for this car's build date.  The powertrain (engine and transmission) was sourced according to NCRS standards, has all the right numbers, casting, stamps, and is not original to the car. The combination of rare color, desirable drivetrain, and detailed restoration makes it a standout example of the mid-year Corvette market.
