This 1966 Chevrolet Corvette convertible was ordered new from Bob Miller Chevrolet of Pottsville, Pennsylvania and raced in events such as the 1966 Jefferson Hillclimb by its original owner, with whom it remained until 1992. Power is from a replacement 427ci V8, which is paired with a Muncie M21 close-ratio four-speed manual transmission and a 4.11:1 rear axle. A refurbishment in black and white 1966 livery took place between 2006 and 2007, and the car was purchased by the seller seven years ago. Notable accolades include features in several magazines between 1966 and 2014 as well as an NCRS American Heritage Award in 2010. This Corvette racer is offered with a stock driver’s seat, a hardtop, its original sales invoice, literature, historical photographs and records, and a Florida title in the seller’s name.

The refurbishment between 2006 and 2007 included a lacquer repaint in 1966 black and white racing livery. The car was ordered new with side-exit exhausts and a color-matched removable hardtop, while a roll bar was fitted after its original purchase. A black soft top is also equipped and shown raised in the gallery below.

Widened steel wheels are painted in red oxide and wear Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires. The car was ordered new with J56 heavy-duty power brakes and the F41 heavy-duty suspension package, while power steering was added during the refurbishment. A second set of tires is included in the sale.

The car retains a full black vinyl interior featuring a vintage racing-style driver’s seat equipped with a competition lap belt as well as replacement front carpets. The stock driver’s seat and belt are included in the sale. Factory equipment includes tinted windows and a vertical Delco AM/FM radio.

The glovebox door was signed by the car’s original owner in 2007. The five-digit odometer shows 71k miles, 200 of which were added by the seller. The headlight door switch is described as finicky.

The trim tag located beneath the glovebox door provides the following information:

Style 66 467 – 1966 Corvette Convertible

– 1966 Corvette Convertible Trim STD – Black vinyl interior

– Black vinyl interior Paint 900AA – Tuxedo Black exterior

The replacement 427ci V8 was installed during the refurbishment and sends power to the rear wheels through a Muncie M21 close-ratio four-speed manual transmission and a 4.11:1 rear axle. New spark plugs were installed and an oil change was performed in January 2019.

Additional underside photos are presented in the photo gallery below.

The invoice from Bob Miller Chevrolet of Pottsville, Pennsylvania lists the car’s as-delivered equipment for an original price of $5,807.

The car was shown during competition at the 1966 Jefferson Hillclimb on the cover of a 1966 issue of Corvette News, and is said to have raced in later events at tracks such as Pocono, Mosport, Summit Point, and Watkins Glen. It was featured in a 2009 issue of Corvette Magazine as well as Vette Vues Magazine in June 2014, also spending time on display at Corvettes at Carlisle. An NCRS American Heritage Award earned in 2010 can be viewed in the gallery along with articles, historical photos, a dealer order confirmation card, and more.
